Before moving on, I heartily thank all the authors who contributed their manuscripts to the Journal of Hospital Medicine (JHM), bravely investing in this new academic periodical. A remarkable 284 manuscripts have been submitted since we first opened the JHM Web site, 197 of them during 2006. This clearly reflects the robust demand by hospitalists and their colleagues for original research and relevant clinical reviews about our evolving specialty of hospital medicine. I probably should not be surprised that this demand exists among the 15,000-plus hospitalists in America and the 6000-plus members of the Society of Hospital Medicine. Regardless, I am ineffably humbled by the enthusiasm and energy of all the contributors.
Understandably, this volume of submissions, exceeding our projections by nearly 50%, required yeoman's work by our associate editors and reviewers. On page 55 we list the 203 reviewers who donated their time and acumen to assure the quality of our publication. Many reviewed more than 4 articles during the year. Our associate editors deserve particular appreciation and gratitude for their willingness to donate extraordinary amounts of time and effort to ensure the success of JHM-Vincent Chang from
