“…Our findings show that the fields of Neuroscience and Psychiatry lead the way in this search for quality, with roughly 70% of articles from researchers in both areas published in the highly selective Web of Science-indexed journals. Other indicators measured in prior studies corroborate these findings 4,[11][12][13] . Nitrini showed that the research output of Brazilian neuroscientists accounted for 2.37% of worldwide scientific production as measured by analysis of data from the 20 journals in which neuroscience research is most often published.4 Another relevant point is that several Brazilian journals in the field are indexed by Web of Science; furthermore, the Revista Brasileira de Psiquiatria is one of only seven Latin American journals with an impact factor of 1 or more (IF = 1.225) 14 .…”

Summary objectIve. To assess the profile and scientific output of medical researchers supported by Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq) grants. Methods. Data were extracted from the Lattes curricula of 411 medical researchers with active grants for the 2006-2008 period. The variables of interest were gender, institutional affiliation, scientific output, and advisership of undergraduate research fellows and master's and doctoral candidates. results. Researchers were predominantly male (68%) and recipients of category 2 grants (55.7%). Four Brazilian states (São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Rio Grande do Sul, and Minas Gerais) accounted for 90% of all researchers. Eight institutions accounted for roughly 80% of researchers in the sample, particularly USP (30.7%) and UNIFESP (17%). The study identified 30 areas of expertise for researchers. Median scientific output was 4.13 published articles per year (interquartile range, IQ, 2.9-5.8), or 2.23 per year (IQ, 1.4-3.2) after adjusting for articles published in Web of Scienceindexed journals. The most productive areas in terms of indexed articles were Neuroscience (3.16 articles/year; IQ, 1.8-4.7) and Psychiatry (2.92; IQ, 1.73-4.5). conclusIon. Medical researchers are concentrated in the Southeast region of Brazil. The scientific output of most Brazilian researchers has increased over the past five years. An understanding of the profile of medical researchers in the country may aid development of effective strategies for qualitative improvement of scientific output.

“…Therefore, it is not surprising that Rocha et al 10 , in a study that evaluated the Brazilian scientific production in the 40 psychiatry journals with highest impact factor, showed that 83 (86.4%) of 96 articles were by researchers in the States of São Paulo (46 articles, 47.9%), Rio Grande do Sul (27 publications, 28.12%), and Rio de Janeiro (10 publications, 10.41%). Our analysis showed no gender difference among grants scholarship categories.…”

“…In this analysis, the area of Neurosciences stood out in terms of the production of scientific papers indexed in databases such as the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI) and Scopus 6 . Several studies have assessed the scientific production of Neurosciences in Brazil and Latin America [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] . However, specific data about the main Brazilian researchers in this area of knowledge are still relatively scarce 16 .…”

Background: Several studies have examined the scientific production of National Counsel of Technological and Scientific Development (CNPq) researchers in various areas of knowledge. However, specific data about the main Brazilian researchers in Neurosciences are scarce. Objective: Evaluate the scientific production of researchers in the field of Neurosciences who receives productivity grant from the CNPq. Methods: The Lattes Curriculum of 58 researchers with active grants in the years from 2006 to 2008 were included in the analysis. The variables of interest were: gender, affiliation, human resources training, and scientific production. Grants categories/levels were classified according to CNPq database. Results: There was predominance of grants level 1 (55.2%). Researchers published 6,526 articles (median of 90). Of these, 61% were indexed in the ISI database. There was no significant difference between the categories regarding the number of articles (P = 0.12). The median h-index was 10.5 and the median m-index was 0.77. There was no significant difference in m-index between the categories (P = 0.28). Discussion: Strategies to qualitatively improve the scientific output possibly can be enhanced by the knowledge of the profile of researchers in the field of Neurosciences.

“…The overall scientific output of Brazilian researchers has increased over the past few years, and the field of mental health is no exception 8,9,10 . The availability of local data on the mental health of the Brazilian population is essential for the development of adequate public health policy.…”

ABSTRACTobjectIve. This systematic review sought to conduct a general analysis of the Brazilian scientific output on autism spectrum disorders (ASD) published between 2002 and 2009. Methods. A literature search was conducted in the scientific databases PubMed, SciELO, and LILACS and in the CAPES portal, using keywords such as "autism" and "pervasive developmental disorders". results. A total of 93 articles were identified, most of which were authored by researchers from Southeast Brazil and affiliated with public universities. Approximately one-third of all articles were published in journals with an impact factor ranging from 0.441 to 3.211; most were based on small sample sizes. Furthermore, 140 theses and dissertations were identified, 82.1% of which were master's theses. Interventions for ASD were the predominant research topic. conclusIon. Brazilian researchers are clearly interested in the topic of ASD; however, a substantial portion of their scientific output is limited to doctoral dissertations or master's theses. A minority of articles was published in journals with a high impact factor. These findings suggest the need for studies with larger sample sizes, which could produce higher-impact findings and thus increase visibility of the Brazilian scientific output in the field of ASD research.
