Journal Title：Infection

The primary aim of Infection is to be a forum for the presentation and discussion of clinically relevant information on infectious diseases for readers and contributors from all over the world. Articles deal with the etiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment of infectious diseases in the outpatient as well as in the inpatient setting. Public health issues of local, regional or international importance related to infectious diseases are featured, as well as progress and problems in hospital epidemiology.

The main contents of the journal include original articles describing results of research projects, brief reports on new observations that enhance the knowledge of clinicians, and state-of-the-art reviews on topics that are relevant to physicians diagnosing or treating infectious diseases. Case reports describing new infectious etiologies or clinical manifestations are also welcome. Finally, the correspondence section is open to readers who want to respond to articles published in Infection or to succinctly present information to the general readership. Because infectious diseases often present with characteristic clinical pictures that can be seen upon inspection and because imaging and microscopy are an essential part of infection diagnosis, the “Images” section of Infection was created to focus on high-quality pictures with short texts in abstract form.

《感染》的主要目的是為來自世界各地的讀者和投稿者提供一個論壇，展示和討論與傳染病相關的臨床信息。文章涉及門診和住院環境中傳染病的病因、發病機制、診斷和治療。文章重點介紹與傳染病相關的當地、地區或國際公共衛生問題，以及醫院流行病學的進展和問題。

該期刊的主要內容包括描述研究項目結果的原創文章、增強臨床醫生知識的新觀察的簡要報告，以及與醫生診斷或治療傳染病相關的主題的最新評論。也歡迎描述新的傳染病病因或臨床表現的病例報告。最后，通訊部分向想要回應《感染》上發表的文章或向一般讀者簡潔地介紹信息的讀者開放。由于傳染病通常具有可通過檢查看到的特征性臨床表現，并且成像和顯微鏡檢查是感染診斷的重要組成部分，因此創建了“感染”的“圖像”部分，專注于高質量圖片并配有摘要形式的簡短文字。
