The Impact Factor measures the average number of citations received in a particular year by papers published in the journal during the two preceding years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) IF: 2.7 To calculate the five year Impact Factor, citations are counted in 2017 to the previous five years and divided by the source items published in the previous five years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) 5-Year IF: 3.6 The Immediacy Index is the average number of times an article is cited in the year it is published. The journal Immediacy Index indicates how quickly articles in a journal are cited. Immediacy Index: 0.8 The Eigenfactor score, developed by Jevin West and Carl Bergstrom at the University of Washington, is a rating of the total importance of a scientific journal. Journals are rated according to the number of incoming citations, with citations from highly ranked journals weighted to make a larger contribution to the eigenfactor than those from poorly ranked journals. Eigenfactor: 0.00023 The Journal Citation Indicator (JCI) is a single measurement of the field-normalized citation impact of journals in the Web of Science Core Collection across disciplines. The key words here are that the metric is normalized and cross-disciplinary. JCI: 0.39 SJR: 0.42 SNIP: 0.89 CiteScore™:: 5.5 H-Index: 79

ABSTRAKT

Cancer treatment, owing to its myriad limitations, has often been a formidable challenge to both the practitioners as well as researchers. There has been a continued effort in designing newer and successful strategies to obtain optimal results. One such strategy includes the elucidation of a combinatorial approach of the conventional chemotherapy protocol with various mechanophysical methods. This opinion article discusses that how two thrust areas like targeting cancerous cells using a novel drug-delivery system and mechanophysical methods of killing them can be amalgamated into a complete new vector, which is driven with precision, specificity, accuracy, and better efficacy. This approach relies on devising a mechanophysical responsive vehicle, which could be added to other anticancer therapies. The new combined tool would then kill the cancer cells not just by releasing the chemotherapeutic drug at the desired site but also by killing individual cells through the purported mechanophysical stimuli. Summarily, the resultant vector generates an angle influenced by the direction of the mechanophysical vector, leading to a better therapeutic modality.
