“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 (how the two differ). Citation rates differ enormously between fields, so compare within a discipline. What the other figures mean: journal quartile, SJR, h-index and article processing charge.

The quartile is the one Scimago prints for each category. Rank is the journal's position by SJR among the journals Scimago lists in that category (#1 is the highest); “—” means we hold no rank consistent with that quartile. The document count is what Scopus indexed that year, which can be lower than a journal's full output. Source: SCImago Journal Rank 2025 edition, from Scopus data (scimagojr.com, CC BY-NC).

Journal of Hard Tissue Biology is Q3 in 1 of its 6 Scimago subject categories (2025 edition; best category Dentistry (miscellaneous): Q3, #144 of 199), with SJR 0.165 (Scimago) and an h-index of 21 (OpenAlex). Listed in Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed.

Frequently asked

Is Journal of Hard Tissue Biology a predatory journal?

Our screening does not flag Journal of Hard Tissue Biology. 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 Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, which is a positive signal.

Is Journal of Hard Tissue Biology indexed in Scopus or Web of Science?

Per our venue index, Journal of Hard Tissue Biology appears in: Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed. Index membership changes over time — confirm on the index's own site before relying on it.

What is the impact factor of Journal of Hard Tissue Biology?

Papers in Journal of Hard Tissue Biology are cited about 0.5 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q3, with an h-index of 21. Those are the open equivalents: the Clarivate Journal Impact Factor is a proprietary metric we neither compute nor license, so we show the two-year citation rate and Scimago quartile instead — they answer the same question of how heavily the journal is cited. A citation rate is a property of a field as much as of a journal.

What Scimago quartile is Journal of Hard Tissue Biology (Q1, Q2, Q3, or Q4)?

In the Scimago Journal Rank 2025 edition, Journal of Hard Tissue Biology is Q3 in 1 of its 6 subject categories and Q4 in the other 5. By category: Dentistry (miscellaneous): Q3, #144 of 199; Biomaterials: Q4, #136 of 145; Cell Biology: Q4, #282 of 297; Orthopedics and Sports Medicine: Q4, #286 of 340; Biochemistry: Q4, #411 of 449; Medicine (miscellaneous): Q4, #2,112 of 2,517. Its best category quartile is Q3. Quartiles split the journals in a subject category into four equal groups by SJR, so Q1 is the most-cited quarter and Q4 the least; Journal of Hard Tissue Biology is cited about 0.5 times per paper over two years, with an h-index of 21.

What is the Web of Science (JCR) quartile of Journal of Hard Tissue Biology?

The Web of Science quartile comes from Clarivate's Journal Citation Reports (JCR), a proprietary product we neither license nor compute — so we cannot state a JCR quartile for Journal of Hard Tissue Biology. The open equivalent is its best Scimago quartile, Q3 in Dentistry (miscellaneous), derived from Scopus citation data. Because JCR ranks against Web of Science and Scimago against Scopus, the two can differ, so check Clarivate's site directly if you need the JCR quartile specifically.

Is Journal of Hard Tissue Biology 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.
