Metrics
“Cites per paper” is a two-year cited-by rate computed from OpenAlex. It is not a Clarivate Journal Impact Factor — we neither compute nor license that metric. Citation rates differ enormously between fields, so compare within a discipline.
Indexing & access
Access status: gold. Where this comes from publisher-level signals rather than works-level data it is a heuristic — confirm on the journal’s own site, especially regarding any article processing charge.
Scope
Frequently asked
Is Diagnostics a predatory journal?
Our screening does not flag Diagnostics. That is not a guarantee of quality — it means the venue is not on Beall's archive (frozen since 2017) and does not match our name-pattern heuristic. It is listed in DOAJ, Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, which is a positive signal.
Is Diagnostics indexed in Scopus or Web of Science?
Per our venue index, Diagnostics appears in: DOAJ, Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed. Index membership changes over time — confirm on the index's own site before relying on it.
What is Diagnostics's impact?
Papers in Diagnostics are cited about 3.0 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q2, with an h-index of 119. This is not a Clarivate Journal Impact Factor — we neither compute nor license that metric — and a citation rate is a property of a field as much as of a journal.
Is Diagnostics open access?
Our index records its access status as "gold". Where this is derived from publisher-level signals rather than works-level data it is a heuristic, so confirm on the journal's own site — particularly if an article processing charge matters to you.
