    <p>O Arquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia (ABC Cardiol) &#233; o peri&#243;dico cient&#237;fico de maior impacto em Cardiologia no Brasil e na Am&#233;rica Latina. Em sua hist&#243;ria tem tido o papel fundamental de divulgar a produ&#231;&#227;o cientifica nacional em peri&#243;dico indexado em todas as bases de dados internacionais mais significantes e em l&#237;ngua inglesa. No momento atual constitui-se, portanto, na verdadeira janela da nossa produ&#231;&#227;o cient&#237;fica para o mundo.</p>
    <p>As evolu&#231;&#245;es e resultados positivos que obtivemos nesta gest&#227;o atual se apoiam em a&#231;&#245;es cont&#237;nuas de gest&#245;es anteriores do ABC Cardiol. Aqui aproveito para textualizar meus agradecimentos a todos os Editores-Chefes anteriores, fundamentais na evolu&#231;&#227;o do ABC Cardiol e que permitiu que a gest&#227;o atual atingisse resultados positivos, como o do fator de impacto de 2,0<sup><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B1">1</xref></sup> na Journal of Citation Report. A palavra aqui &#233; gratid&#227;o a todos os que direta ou indiretamente contribu&#237;ram ee torcem para o sucesso do ABC Cardiol e, principalmente, a nossa comunidade cient&#237;fica.<sup><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B2">2</xref></sup></p>
    <p>No entanto, os desafios continuam na busca de atingir novos patamares nas miss&#245;es dos Arquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia. Nessa jornada de avan&#231;os, as melhores ideias v&#234;m da discuss&#227;o com grupos envolvidos na gest&#227;o e da &#8220;intelig&#234;ncia coletiva&#8221; que Editores-Associados, Assistentes Editoriais, Revisores, membros dos conselhos de publica&#231;&#227;o da SBC, Editores Anteriores, Diretores da SBC e membros da SBC. Aqui convoco a todos a participarem ativamente do ABC Cardiol e a submeterem seus melhores trabalhos na mais importante revista de Cardiologia do nosso meio.</p>
    <p>O que estamos planejando hoje para os pr&#243;ximos 4 anos de gest&#227;o, at&#233; 2025, est&#227;o no texto deste Editorial. Por&#233;m novas ideias e a&#231;&#245;es podem surgir e tudo depende da participa&#231;&#227;o ativa de todos. Este Editor-Chefe tem os ouvidos, mente e cora&#231;&#227;o abertos a sugest&#227;o de todos. Contribuam!</p>
    <p>Na linha editorial e formato do ABC Cardiol, continuaremos com os minieditoriais convidando os Revisores de artigos a escreverem sua vis&#227;o sobre o dado original publicado no ABC Cardiol. No ABC Cardiol, quem revisa, escreve minieditoriais!</p>
    <p>Estamos estimulando publica&#231;&#245;es de revis&#245;es sistem&#225;ticas e metan&#225;lises de alta qualidade, o que tem ajudado muito a responder perguntas para as quais estudos cl&#237;nicos randomizados ainda n&#227;o est&#227;o dispon&#237;veis. Temos ainda uma grande miss&#227;o de divulgar nossos dados populacionais para ajudar nossos gestores p&#250;blicos a realizarem as melhores decis&#245;es em prol da popula&#231;&#227;o brasileira.<sup><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B3">3</xref>-<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B9">9</xref></sup> O foco est&#225; e continuar&#225; nas doen&#231;as cardiovasculares sob todos os seus aspectos, incluindo a interdisciplinaridade.</p>
    <p>Estudos com dados originais dos programas de p&#243;s-gradua&#231;&#227;o de todo o nosso pa&#237;s s&#227;o a fonte dos artigos de melhor qualidade do ABC Cardiol e sempre avaliamos estes artigos com olhar especial. Programas de p&#243;s-gradua&#231;&#227;o das universidades p&#250;blicas e privadas na &#225;rea de Cardiologia e das Ci&#234;ncias Cardiovasculares submetam artigos ao ABC Cardiol! Destaque, v&#237;deos, podcasts, repercuss&#227;o e coment&#225;rios em nossas p&#225;ginas totalmente integradas as redes sociais e redes cient&#237;ficas dar&#227;o a repercuss&#227;o desejada e muitas vezes superiores a publica&#231;&#245;es em peri&#243;dicos internacionais que n&#227;o dar&#227;o a devida import&#226;ncia que damos a nossa produ&#231;&#227;o local. A divulga&#231;&#227;o dos nossos artigos ter&#225; prioridade m&#225;xima nestes pr&#243;ximos 4 anos e o benef&#237;cio &#233; de todos, autores, institui&#231;&#245;es e peri&#243;dico. Apenas como exemplo, <bold>o novo portal do ABC Cardiol</bold>, que inclui modernas t&#233;cnicas de procura e permite que <italic>web crawlers</italic> do Google e de outras ferramentas de procura identifiquem nossos artigos publicados e disponibilizem nas buscas efetivadas por usu&#225;rios nestas ferramentas. Os resultados j&#225; s&#227;o percept&#237;veis com at&#233; 80 mil acessos por m&#234;s nas nossas p&#225;ginas.</p>
    <p>Uma nova a&#231;&#227;o ser&#225; a indica&#231;&#227;o de embaixadores do ABC Cardiol nas v&#225;rias partes do mundo que ajudar&#225; a divulgar nossa revista e nossa produ&#231;&#227;o, assim como atrair artigos de alta qualidade destas regi&#245;es. Embaixadores da &#193;sia, Europa, Am&#233;rica Latina, Austr&#225;lia, &#193;frica e pa&#237;ses de l&#237;ngua portuguesa est&#227;o programados.</p>
    <p>Uma das grandes novidades ser&#225; a introdu&#231;&#227;o da Figura Central, ou ainda chamada de Resumo Visual ou Resumo Gr&#225;fico/Ilustrativo. Esta figura que resume toda a mensagem do artigo cient&#237;fico em uma &#250;nica figura ou arte gr&#225;fica, ser&#225; distribu&#237;da em formatos simples que permitem a r&#225;pida difus&#227;o pelas m&#237;dias sociais e cient&#237;ficas de forma clara e precisa e sempre carregando a refer&#234;ncia do nosso artigo. O nome desta arte gr&#225;fica em portugu&#234;s e ingl&#234;s para nossa revista ainda n&#227;o est&#225; definido. Mande sua mensagem nos coment&#225;rios desta p&#225;gina dizendo qual a nomenclatura para esta ilustra&#231;&#227;o voc&#234; prefere. Participe desta decis&#227;o! Ainda no podcast mensal faremos os resumos do n&#250;mero e das novas publica&#231;&#245;es para os nossos leitores.</p>
    <p>A segunda grande novidade planejada para 2023, com transi&#231;&#227;o em 2022, ser&#225; a publica&#231;&#227;o continuada, na qual os artigos s&#227;o publicados de forma imediata ap&#243;s aprova&#231;&#227;o e diagrama&#231;&#227;o. Isto resultar&#225; numa diminui&#231;&#227;o dr&#225;stica do tempo entre aprova&#231;&#227;o e ter o artigo cit&#225;vel com DOI e toda a sua refer&#234;ncia para a divulga&#231;&#227;o dos autores. A meta &#233; reduzir dos atuais aproximados 120 dias para 60 dias ou menos. Os fasc&#237;culos mensais continuar&#227;o a existir, mas ser&#227;o constru&#237;dos retrospectivamente. Isto poder&#225; afetar um pouco a pagina&#231;&#227;o do artigo, mas no mundo moderno digital este detalhe perdeu sua import&#226;ncia e vamos nos adaptar aos novos formatos das referencias.</p>
    <p>Estamos planejando uma amplia&#231;&#227;o no nosso corpo de revisores, editores-associados, embaixadores e colaboradores nacionais e internacionais.<sup><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B10">10</xref></sup> Esteja pr&#243;ximo para participar da escrita da hist&#243;ria da nossa ci&#234;ncia cardiovascular junto com o ABC Cardiol com 73 anos de hist&#243;ria e muito mais pela frente. Venha, fa&#231;a parte desta hist&#243;ria! Estamos de bra&#231;os abertos a todos da nossa comunidade cient&#237;fica. Planejamos tamb&#233;m a amplia&#231;&#227;o das premia&#231;&#245;es a revisores e colaboradores assim como tornar a revis&#227;o vis&#237;vel atrav&#233;s do Publons, ajudando assim a carreira acad&#234;mica de nossos revisores, editores e colaboradores. Ainda em discuss&#227;o, mas poderemos ainda nesta gest&#227;o adotar a publica&#231;&#227;o dos nomes dos revisores de artigos aprovados, sempre com a aprova&#231;&#227;o dos revisores e autores.</p>
    <p>Nossa internacionaliza&#231;&#227;o como peri&#243;dico continua, com mais um ter&#231;o das publica&#231;&#245;es oriundas de centros internacionais. Nossa taxa de aceita&#231;&#227;o no &#250;ltimo ano de aproximadamente 10% apenas dos artigos originais submetidos &#233; um dado que demonstra a qualidade das publica&#231;&#245;es aprovadas no ABC Cardiol atualmente. Embora isso possa ser um desafio para os autores, a submiss&#227;o no ABC Cardiol garante uma an&#225;lise de peer-review (ao menos entre dois editores, no caso da rejei&#231;&#227;o imediata) e um encaminhamento direto, se apropriado, para as outras revistas da Fam&#237;lia ABC e parceiros<sup><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B11">11</xref>-<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B13">13</xref></sup> como: International Journal of Cardiovascular Sciences, ABC Cardiovasular Imaging (revista do DIC), ABC Heart Failure &amp; Cardiomyopahty (revista do DEIC), Revista do DERC, Journal of Transcatheter Interventions (JOTCI da SBHCI), Brazilian Jounal of Cardiovascular Surgery (da Sociedade Brasileira de Cirurgia Cardiovascular). Toda essa oportunidade em uma &#250;nica submiss&#227;o! Os editores querem que seu artigo encontre sua casa e morada final o mais r&#225;pido poss&#237;vel. E essa integra&#231;&#227;o com a Fam&#237;lia ABC aumenta em muita sua chance de atingir este objetivo essencial na carreira acad&#234;mica dos dias de hoje: Publicar! O ABC Cardiol ainda aceita submiss&#245;es de artigos que j&#225; foram publicados em servidores de pre-print reconhecidos pela Scielo e pelo ABC Cardiol como: Scielo pre-prints, MedRxiv, OSFPreprints e Preprints.</p>
    <p>O caminho &#224; frente &#233; desafiador, mas estamos prontos para o desafio e vamos crescer muito junto com a nossa comunidade cient&#237;fica que tem um talento fenomenal e que precisa ser mostrado ao mundo.</p>

    <body>
      <p>The Brazilian Archives of Cardiology (ABC Cardiol) is the scientific journal with the greatest impact on Cardiology in Brazil and Latin America. In its history, it has had the fundamental role of disclosing the national scientific production in a journal indexed in all the most significant international databases and in the English language. At present, it is, therefore, the true window of our scientific production to the World.</p>
      <p>The positive evolutions and results we have achieved in this current administration are supported by continuous actions from previous ABC Cardiol administrations. Here I take this opportunity to text my thanks to all the previous Editors-in-Chief, who were fundamental in the growth of ABC Cardiol and who allowed the current leadership to achieve positive results, such as the impact factor of 2.0<sup><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B1">1</xref></sup> in the Journal of Citation Report. The word here is gratitude to all those who directly or indirectly contributed and support the success of ABC Cardiol and, especially, our scientific community.<sup><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B2">2</xref></sup></p>
      <p>However, challenges continue in the quest to reach new heights in the missions of the Arquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia. In this journey of advancement, the best ideas come from discussions with groups involved in management and &#8220;collective intelligence&#8221; that Associate Editors, Editorial Assistants, Reviewers, members of SBC's publishing boards, Previous Editors, SBC Directors and SBC members. Here, I invite everyone to actively participate in ABC Cardiol and submit their best work to the most important Cardiology journal in our country.</p>
      <p>What we are planning today for the next 4 years of management, until 2025, are in the text of this Editorial. But new ideas and actions can emerge, and everything depends on the active participation of everyone. This Editor-in-Chief has an open ear, mind, and heart to everyone's suggestion. Contribute!</p>
      <p>In the editorial line and format of ABC Cardiol, we will continue with the mini-editorials inviting the Reviewers of articles to write their vision about the original data published on ABC Cardiol. At ABC Cardiol, whoever reviews, writes mini-editorials!</p>
      <p>We are encouraging publications of high-quality systematic reviews and meta-analyses, which have greatly helped to answer questions for which randomized controlled trials are not yet available. We also have a great mission to disseminate our populational data to help our public managers to make the best decisions for the benefit of the Brazilian population.<sup><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B3">3</xref>&#8211;<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B9">9</xref></sup> The focus is and will continue to be on cardiovascular disease in all its aspects, including interdisciplinarity.</p>
      <p>Studies with original data from postgraduate programs throughout our country are the source of the best quality articles on ABC Cardiol and we always evaluate these articles with a special eye. Postgraduate programs from public and private universities in the field of Cardiology and Cardiovascular Sciences submit articles to ABC Cardiol! Highlights, videos, podcasts, reverberations, and comments on our pages, fully integrated with social networks and scientific networks, will give the desired aftermath and often superior to publications in international journals that will not give the due importance that we give to our local production. The dissemination of our articles will have top priority over the next 4 years and the benefit belongs to all, authors, institutions, and journals. Just as an example, the new ABC Cardiol portal, which includes modern search techniques and allows web crawlers from Google and other search tools to identify our published articles and make them available in searches carried out by users in these tools. The results are already noticeable with up to 80 thousand hits per month on our pages.</p>
      <p>A new action will be the appointment of ambassadors of ABC Cardiol in various parts of the World that will help to publicize our magazine and our production, as well as attract high-quality articles from these regions. Ambassadors from Asia, Europe, Latin America, Australia, Africa, and Portuguese-speaking countries are scheduled.</p>
      <p>One of the big news will be the introduction of the Central Figure, also called Visual Abstract or Graphical/Illustrative Summary. This figure, which summarizes the entire message of the scientific article in a single figure or graphic art, will be distributed in simple formats that allow rapid dissemination through social and scientific media in a clear and precise manner and always carrying the reference of our article. The name of this graphic art in Portuguese and English for our Journal has not yet been defined. Send your message in the comments on this page saying which name for this illustration you prefer. Participate in this decision! Also in the monthly podcast, we will make summaries of the issue and new publications for our readers.</p>
      <p>The second big news planned for 2023, with transition in 2022, will be continued publication, in which articles are published immediately after approval and layout. This will result in a drastic reduction in the time between approval and having the article citable with DOI and all its references for publication by the authors. The goal is to reduce the current approximate 120 days to 60 days or less. The monthly issues will continue to exist, but they will be built retrospectively. This may affect the pagination of the article a little, but in the modern digital world this detail has lost its importance and we are going to adapt to the new formats of references.</p>
      <p>We are planning to expand our body of reviewers, associate editors, ambassadors and national and international contributors.<sup><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B10">10</xref></sup> Be close by to participate in writing the history of our cardiovascular science alongside ABC Cardiol with 73 years of history and much more to come. Come to be part of this story! We welcome everyone in our scientific community with open arms. We also plan to expand the awards to reviewers and collaborators, as well as make the review visible through Publons, thus helping the academic career of our reviewers, editors, and collaborators. Still under discussion, but we may adopt in this new administration the publication of the names of the reviewers of approved articles, only if the reviewers and authors approve.</p>
      <p>The internationalization of our Journal continues, with over a third of publications coming from international centers. Our acceptance rate in the last year of approximately only 10% of the original articles submitted is a fact that demonstrates the quality of publications currently approved by ABC Cardiol. Although this can be a challenge for authors, submission to ABC Cardiol guarantees a peer-review review (at least between two editors in the case of immediate rejection) and direct referral, if appropriate, to the other ABC Family and partners<sup><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B11">11</xref>&#8211;<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B13">13</xref></sup> as International Journal of Cardiovascular Sciences, ABC Cardiovascular Imaging (DIC Journal), ABC Heart Failure &amp; Cardiomyopahty (DEIC Journal), DERC Magazine, Journal of Transcatheter Interventions (SBHCI JOTCI), Brazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery (from the Brazilian Society of Cardiovascular Surgery). All these opportunities in a single submission! The Editors want the submitted articles to find their home Journal as quickly as possible. And this integration with the ABC Family greatly increases your chance of achieving this essential objective in today's academic career: To publish! ABC Cardiol even accepts submission of articles that have already been published on pre-print servers recognized by Scielo and ABC Cardiol as Scielo pre-prints, MedRxiv, OSFPreprints, and Preprints.</p>
      <p>The way-ahead is challenging, but we are ready for the challenge, and we are going to grow a lot together with our scientific community, which has phenomenal talent, and which needs to be shown to the World.</p>
