Aim and Scope

Aim & Scope

Gastroenterology & Digestive Surgery Review (GDSR) is an open-access, peer-reviewed journal that publishes high-quality research, reviews, and clinical studies in the fields of gastroenterology, hepatology, and digestive surgery. The journal serves as an international platform for gastroenterologists, hepatobiliary surgeons, and researchers to share discoveries, innovations, and evidence-based insights that advance digestive health and surgical excellence.

Its core mission is to promote interdisciplinary collaboration among clinicians, surgeons, and biomedical scientists by integrating molecular research, clinical practice, and surgical innovation. The journal aims to improve understanding, diagnosis, and treatment of gastrointestinal, hepatic, pancreatic, and biliary diseases—enhancing patient care through research-driven advancements and surgical precision.

The journal welcomes contributions on a broad range of topics, including but not limited to:

  • Gastrointestinal diseases and functional GI disorders

  • Hepatology, liver disease management, and transplantation

  • Endoscopy, colonoscopy, and minimally invasive diagnostic procedures

  • Pancreatic and biliary tract disorders

  • Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), Crohn’s disease, and ulcerative colitis

  • Digestive system oncology and molecular gastroenterology

  • Digestive and hepatobiliary surgery, laparoscopic and robotic techniques

  • Gastrointestinal bleeding, peptic ulcer disease, and trauma management

  • Microbiome research, nutrition, and metabolic implications in GI health

  • Translational and regenerative medicine in digestive health

We invite submissions in the form of original research articles, clinical trials, review papers, and case reports. All manuscripts should aim to advance knowledge and practice in gastroenterology and digestive surgery to improve diagnostic precision, therapeutic outcomes, and patient quality of life.
