Dear Colleagues,

On behalf of the Circulation Journal , I would like to report its official 2021 Impact Factor and the related information in detail as follows:

1. The Official 2021 Impact Factor

I would like to report that Circulation Journal has earned an official 2021 Impact Factor of 3.350 (2020: 2.993). The official ranking places Circulation Journal the 72nd among the 143 journals in the Cardiac & Cardiovascular Systems category in 2021 JCR Science Edition (74th among the 142 journals in 2020). I would like to ask readers to use Circulation Journal papers as reference papers in your future submission of manuscripts to any journals.
