The Journal of HIV/AIDS Surveillance &
Epidemiology, jHASE
(ISSN: 1930-6768) is
an
independent international open access peer-reviewed journal of proceedings
of the Institute of HIV/AIDS Surveillance and Epidemiology (iHASE). All
articles are published, without barriers to access, in quarterly volumes
immediately upon acceptance. The journal is published by the nonprofit
organization, Institutes of Epidemiology & Public Health, Inc. (New York &
Harrisburg, USA and Johannesburg, South Africa), in collaboration with the
Institute of HIV/AIDS Surveillance & Epidemiology. |
|
|
|
Original
articles reporting HIV/AIDS Surveillance & Epidemiologic
research and methods (including related public health conditions) |
| |
|
 |
In
pursuit of the jHASE objective of providing quality assurance,
training and education through peer review, jHASE
encourages the submission of suitable articles that report research work on all aspects of applied Public Health surveillance
and Epidemiologic research on HIV/AIDS and related public health
conditions.
jHASE editorial processes ensure that research is reported in the most
appropriate way to assure fulfilment of the journal’s commitment to
quality assurance and education through peer review.

|
Research |
Research Articles: The journal's main section
is dedicated to quality assurance, training and education through peer review of
submissions of full (standard) and brief (short)
research articles on all aspects of applied Public Health
surveillance and population-level Epidemiologic research on HIV/AIDS disease burden/risk
factor assessment; prevention, treatment and care interventions;
services access, utilization, and gaps; and other HIV-related public
health conditions. Examples
of research article core/focus areas may include those described
in greater details on the pages outlining
article types
and
core/focus areas. |
| |
|
| |
Standard
reports: Fully
fledged reports of data from original research (usually about 3500
words in main text, 5 tables/figures, and a structured abstract of
350 words);
|
| |
|
| |
Surveillance Studies:
Applied Public Health
surveillance and population-level Epidemiologic research on HIV/AIDS
(and related STDs, non-enteric viral hepatitis and TB) disease
burden/risk factor assessment; services access, utilization, and

Study methodology articles |
Methodology/procedures articles: Present
new surveillance/study/experimental methods, tests or procedures.
The methods described may either be completely new, or may offer a
better version of an existing method. The article must describe a
demonstrable advance on what is currently available. The method
needs to have been well tested and ideally, but not necessarily,
used in a way that proves its value. Other studies in this category
may present validations/comparisons of different surveillance methods. |

Methods protocols of study design and procedures:
Describe proposed, ongoing or published article's research methods, providing a detailed account
of the hypothesis, rationale, design and procedures of the study.
Submitted protocols must include all elements that would be
ordinarily required by PHS/NIH
guidelines or for IRBs review
as ethics issues will also be peer-reviewed for all protocols
submitted. Protocol topics may be in the
following areas:
|
| |
Standard
length protocols: Fully
fledged protocols following NIH guidelines, including an
abstract/summary.

Protocols of statistical analyses and data management methods and
software:
Review, validate and describe proposed, ongoing or published articles'
methods, statistical analyses, specifically providing a detailed account
of the hypotheses, statistical analyses methods and the rationale
thereof, corresponding statistical software program procedures or
menu-driven analyses steps, and/or data management procedures/tools.
Generic protocols/reviews may describe statistical software programs, applications, tools or
statistical
algorithm implementations typically used in HIV/AIDS surveillance and
Epidemiology studies or data management. In the spirit of open
access, jHASE strongly encourages that submitted protocols include relevant statistical methodology elements, if any, that
would be ordinarily required by PHS/NIH
guidelines or for IRBs review
as ethics issues will also be peer-reviewed for all protocols
submitted. Typically, descriptions/reviews of the statistical analyses software
programs will include statistical software programs and/or step-by-step tutorial-format archive of
screenshots with the submitted
manuscript in supplementary files. Statistical analyses protocol topics may be in the
following areas:
-
HIV/AIDS surveillance & Epidemiology
statistical analyses protocols;
-
Public Health intervention/practice
statistical analyses protocols; and
-
Data
Management procedures/algorithms;
|
| |
Standard
length protocols:
