Use when targeting The Lancet Respiratory Medicine or deciding whether a respiratory or critical-care study fits this venue. Encodes the journal's fit, the practice-changing trial and major-cohort evidence bar, reporting-guideline and registration requirements, Lancet specialty house style, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics. Venue-fit aid only, not clinical advice.

# The Lancet Respiratory Medicine (the-lancet-respiratory-medicine) ## Journal positioning The Lancet Respiratory Medicine is a Lancet specialty journal for high-impact clinical and population research across respiratory medicine and critical care — asthma, COPD, interstitial and pulmonary vascular disease, respiratory infection, sleep and ventilation, lung cancer screening, and intensive-care/critical-care medicine. It favors **practice-changing randomized trials, major prospective cohorts, and analyses with clear international clinical or policy consequence**, with a strong emphasis on methodological rigor, generalizable populations, and patient-important outcomes. Small single-center series, mechanistic/basic-science work without a clinical endpoint, and incremental subgroup re-analyses are a weak fit and belong in a translational or broader-scope respiratory journal. This skill is a **fit / venue-selection / re-framing** aid; it is not clinical or regulatory advice and does not replace the journal's current instructions for authors. Before submitting, re-check the live The Lancet Respiratory Medicine author instructions. ## When to trigger - The author names The Lancet Respirat

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill the-lancet-respiratory-medicine --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills, a repository with 984 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
