Digital Chinese Medicine is not in the Web of Science Core Collection (SCIE, SSCI, AHCI or ESCI), so Clarivate publishes no Journal Impact Factor for it.

Its SCImago Journal Rank (SJR, a free Scopus-based metric) is 0.239, quartile Q3, with an H-index of 15.
The publisher lists an article processing charge of about US$980 for open access (source: OpenAlex). Many journals also publish by the subscription route at no cost to the author, so confirm on the journal's own website.

h-index, i10-index and 2-year mean citedness are open, licence-clear metrics from OpenAlex — not a proprietary impact factor. The subject rank counts only journals that OpenAlex has a figure for; it is not a Scopus or Clarivate ranking. Updated 2026-10-14.
In its latest 99 research articles (2024–2026), authors are most often from China (76.4%), India (13.1%) and United States (3%). More than half of recent authorship comes from one country.
Countries are counted fractionally, so a paper by authors from two countries counts half to each.
Scopus status: Active. No retracted papers are recorded. The Problematic Paper Screener flags none of its papers. These are indicators to check, not findings against the journal.
