Abstract
2024 was an excellent year for the Journal of Cardiovascular
Electrophysiology with a total of 389 original, high quality,
peer-reviewed articles published. I am occasionally asked to identify
the top papers published in JCE in the past year. A reasonable
method to identify the top journal manuscripts during a particular
period of time is based on the number of citations each paper has
received. This is an objective approach. However, it is biased in favor
of papers that were published earlier in the year giving more time for
subsequent authors to cite the paper. With that understanding, here are
the top five articles in JCE published in 2024 based on CrossRef
citation data on the Wiley Online Library accessed January 13
th, 2025.
