该杂志旨在通过发表有关统计和其他定量方法的论文来影响医学及其相关科学的实践。论文将解释新的方法，并展示其应用，最好是通过一个实质性的、真实的、激励性的例子或基于一个说明性实例的综合评价。另外，论文还将报告案例研究，其中对既定方法的创造性使用或技术概括是针对实质性应用的。此外，还将出版有关统计应用于医学的一般主题的评论和教程。出版的主要标准是统计方法对特定医学问题的适用性和阐述的清晰度。主要包含数学内容的论文将被排除在外。该杂志旨在加强统计学家、临床医生和医学研究人员之间的交流。

The journal aims to influence practice in medicine and its associated sciences through the publication of papers on statistical and other quantitative methods. Papers will explain new methods and demonstrate their application, preferably through a substantive, real, motivating example or a comprehensive evaluation based on an illustrative example. Alternatively, papers will report on case-studies where creative use or technical generalizations of established methodology is directed towards a substantive application. Reviews of, and tutorials on, general topics relevant to the application of statistics to medicine will also be published. The main criteria for publication are appropriateness of the statistical methods to a particular medical problem and clarity of exposition. Papers with primarily mathematical content will be excluded. The journal aims to enhance communication between statisticians, clinicians and medical researchers.
