In this Editor's Review, articles published in 2019 are organized by category and summarized. These provide a brief reflection of the research and progress in artificial organs intended to advance and better human life while providing insight for continued application of these technologies and methods. Artificial Organs continues in the original mission of its founders "to foster communications in the field of artificial organs on an international level." Artificial Organs continues to publish developments and clinical applications of artificial organ technologies in this broad and expanding field of organ Replacement, Recovery, and Regeneration from all over the world. Peer-reviewed Special Issues this year included contributions from the 14th International Conference on Pediatric Mechanical Circulatory Support Systems and Pediatric Cardiopulmonary Perfusion edited by Dr Akif Undar, and the 26th Congress of the International Society for Mechanical Circulatory Support edited by Dr Minoru Ono and Dr Francesco Moscato. Additionally, important editorials highlighted the need for sustainability in hemodialysis, challenges and opportunities in mechanical circulatory support, progress in artificial pancreas development, historical perspectives on ventilators and dialysis, tissue engineering for cardiac support, and regional updates from India and China. Our Pioneer Series continues to highlight the many researchers who created this field of study. This year we debuted a new series entitled "Recent Progress in Artificial Organs" prepared by Vakhtang Tchantchaleishvili and Elizabeth Maynes of Thomas Jefferson University, Philadelphia, PA, USA. This series highlights recent advances and new developments in the field. We take this time also to express our gratitude to our authors for contributing their work to this journal. We offer our very special thanks to our reviewers who give so generously of their time and expertise to review, critique, and especially provide meaningful suggestions to the author's work. Without our dedicated expert reviewers, the quality expected from such a journal would not be possible. We also express our special thanks to our Publisher, John Wiley & Sons, for their expert attention and support in the production Artificial Organs. We look forward to reporting further advances in the coming years.
在本期编辑评论中，按类别组织并总结了 2019 年发表的文章。这些文章简要反映了人工器官领域的研究和进展，旨在促进和改善人类生活，同时为这些技术和方法的持续应用提供了见解。《人工器官》延续了其创始人的原始使命，“在国际层面促进人工器官领域的交流”。《人工器官》继续在器官替代、恢复和再生的广泛而不断扩大的领域发表人工器官技术的发展和临床应用，来自世界各地。今年的同行评审特刊包括由 Akif Undar 博士编辑的第 14 届国际小儿机械循环支持系统和小儿心肺灌注会议和由 Minoru Ono 博士和 Francesco Moscato 博士编辑的第 26 届国际机械循环支持学会会议的贡献。此外，重要的社论强调了血液透析的可持续性、机械循环支持的挑战和机遇、人工胰腺开发的进展、呼吸机和透析的历史观点、心脏支持的组织工程以及来自印度和中国的区域更新。我们的先驱系列继续突出许多创造这一研究领域的研究人员。今年，我们推出了一个新系列，题为“《人工器官的最新进展》，由美国宾夕法尼亚州费城托马斯杰斐逊大学的 Vakhtang Tchantchaleishvili 和 Elizabeth Maynes 编写。该系列重点介绍了该领域的最新进展和新发展。我们也借此机会向我们的作者表示感谢，感谢他们为这本杂志贡献了自己的作品。我们非常感谢我们的审稿人，他们慷慨地抽出时间和专业知识来审稿、评论，特别是为作者的工作提供有意义的建议。如果没有我们敬业的专家审稿人，这样的期刊所期望的质量是不可能实现的。我们还要特别感谢我们的出版商 John Wiley & Sons，感谢他们在《人工器官》制作过程中的专业关注和支持。我们期待在未来几年报告更多的进展。
