Japan Society of Smooth Muscle Research publishes the Journal of Smooth Muscle Research (JSMR) bi-monthly, and the papers published have been opened in the J-Stage, from volume 36 (1999). One of the headache problems for JSMR is the lack of the submission of papers, and this does not allow regular publication of JSMR. The main reason of the small number of submitted paper may be due to the absence of Impact Factor (IF) in this journal. In 2002, attempts were made to publish invited review articles in JSMR, written by the active researchers, since Editorial boards considered that this would call attention of many smooth muscle researchers to JSMR, and facilitate submission of papers to JSMR. J-Stage started to report the monthly number of downloads and citations of papers published in the JSMR from January 2005. Analyses were made for the number of papers to be downloaded since last 10 months to investigate the effects of introduction of invited review articles to JSMR on the number of downloads. The results indicated that the number of downloads is much higher for the review articles, compared to the original papers. The effects of publication of invited reviews also appeared on the increased number of downloads for original papers. Thus, in two meanings, it was considered that the publication of invited review article in JSMR increases the attractiveness of this journal.
