01Impact factor
Impact factor of Journal of Spinal Disorders & Techniques (2026)
The impact factor shown here is the 2-year mean citedness: citations received in a year by the papers Journal of Spinal Disorders & Techniques published in the two previous years, divided by the number of those papers. That is the same formula as the Journal Impact Factor, applied to the open citation data of OpenAlex. The journal is not listed in JCR 2024, so it has no official Journal Impact Factor from Clarivate; the value above is how often its recent papers are cited.
