The instant IF of the official journal of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC), "European Heart Journal," is calculated as 10002/(428+72)=20.004. The IF has increased from 14.723 in 2015 to 29.983.
The instant IF of the English monthly journal of the European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (ESCMID), "Clinical Microbiology and Infection," is calculated as 3641/(361+157)=7.029.
The instant IF of the journal of the European Association for the Study of the Liver (EASL), "Journal of Hepatology," is calculated as 6456/(321+75)=16.303. The IF has increased from 10.59 in 2016 to 25.083.

The instant impact factor of the European Atherosclerosis Society's journal "Atherosclerosis" (published in 1970) is 3.785, calculated as 2006/(473+57).
The instant impact factor of the journal "Journal of Lipid Research" under the American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (published in 1959) is 3.488, calculated as 1015/(266+25).
The instant impact factor of "Basic Research in Cardiology" (published in 1973) is 7.596, calculated as 828/(94+15).

Considering the recent significant increases in many European society journals and the continuous rise in the prevalence of cardiovascular diseases among the global population, which is gaining more attention from researchers, it is difficult to predict how high the impact factor of "Atherosclerosis" can rise!
