Scope of the Journal
Indian Journal of Veterinary Public Health rapidly publishes original research articles, systematic reviews, meta-analyses, mini-reviews, case reports/case series, short communications, and invited editorials. The subject area covered by the journal includes but is not limited to Veterinary Sciences, One Health, Medical and Allied Sciences, Public Health, Fishery Sciences, Dairy Technology, Environmental Sciences, and Food Science and Technology with special emphasis on Public Health, Microbiology, Parasitology, Pathology, food safety, food hygiene, health policy, etc. An original research article covers the results of the primary research with a precise description of the methodology so that it can be reproduced in other laboratories and a clear interpretation of the work, which has not been published elsewhere. A systematic review covers all available empirical research by using clearly defined, systematic methods to receive answers to a specific research question. A meta-analysis is a statistical process of analyzing and combining results from several similar studies. A mini-review is a short summary of recent research insights in a specific area. A short communication is intended to communicate novel ideas and results in new and developing areas of veterinary, animal, and fishery sciences, but is limited in the level of performed investigations and is thus insufficient to fulfill the requirements of a full paper. A case report is a detailed account of a human or animal patient’s diagnosis, treatment, and response to treatment. A case series is a group of case reports that involve patients who received similar treatment. An invited editorial is a comment on a research topic that is written at the request of the editor.

Moreover, the Association appropriated an initiative to disseminate scientific knowledge among academics, students or research scholars, and human and livestock practitioners through publishing in the Indian Journal of Veterinary Public health (Print ISSN: 0976-948X) since 2010.
