“…Meneghini et al (2008) showed that papers originated from Latin America with no collaboration from authors in the first world are systematically less cited. Rocha e Silva (2010Silva ( , 2011 have harshly criticized the construction of the Qualis ranking, proposing further evaluation paradigms, which are more focused on the quality of the articles and not on the journal FI. He also considered possible new metrics excluding review articles and a reassessment of local journals.…”

The lack of correlation between the Journal Impact Factors and the most cited Brazilian papers in physics is statistically demonstrated. The existence of an effective "Brazilian Impact Factor" is observed, being its values, in general, lower than the international Impact Factors. In some cases, discrepancies from the international values are huge, leading to doubts on whether it is appropriate to use this indicator to judge Brazilian scientists.

“…In addition, it is possible to find good quality published papers in journals of low "impact factor". Accordingly, the reader is expected to have a minimum knowledge to critically evaluate a scientific article, in order not to rest his clinical practice on information that does not represent a scientific truth (6,7) .…”

“…As a result, one can assure the international acknowledgment of Brazilian scientific findings. The two national scientific journals, Brazilian Ophthalmology Archives and the Brazilian Ophthalmology Journal, are critical to assure disclosure not only of papers of international level but also those of regional importance, reporting, thus, to the Brazilian medical community situations that are related to our real life (6,7,12) .…”

“…[3][4][5][6] It is known that Brazilian researchers prefer to publish their material in foreign journals, rather than in Brazilian journals. 7 Through making this choice, the standing of the postgraduate program to which they are linked is improved, their articles achieve higher impact factors and their H index is increased.…”

Journal (SPMJ) are priorities. It is our intention, and duty, to establish closer contact with specialist societies and offer the SPMJ as a vehicle for scientific publication at international level. A large proportion of the specialist societies do not have scientific journals indexed in the Medline database, and the SPMJ could be the ideal means for publishing Brazilian scientific studies that are produced. It is known that a sizable portion of the scientific production of specialist Brazilian congresses does not reach publication in scientific journals. 1,2Therefore, it is up to us, i.e. authors, editors and editorial board members, to push forward publication of our studies. Only through hard work together will we be able to achieve the desired goal of strong and effective national science.Evidence-based medicine is increasingly important, both within Brazilian medicine and internationally. The SPMJ has the objective of publishing papers from all areas of medicine, with a focus on evidence-based medicine. Original articles, systematic reviews, cases reports and Cochrane highlights are published. The SPMJ has now been indexed in the ISI Journal Citation Reports database for two years.1,2 This has consolidated our journal among the highest-regarded in the country, and has given it visibility worldwide. In fact, we are now receiving a variety of studies from researchers outside of Brazil, and this number is on the rise. 2 This is the context within which we intend to expand our actions further.Where Brazilian periodicals are heading, and their future, was a topic greatly discussed by the outgoing board over the last three years, and it continues to be a matter of concern for the Brazilian scientific community. [3][4][5][6] It is known that Brazilian researchers prefer to publish their material in foreign journals, rather than in Brazilian journals. 7 Through making this choice, the standing of the postgraduate program to which they are linked is improved, their articles achieve higher impact factors and their H index is increased. However, the search for greater visibility and quality of national production can be assessed not only through the articles, but also through greater qualification of our periodicals, so that they are recognized internationally. 7The impact factor published by the Journal Citation Reports (Thomson Reuters) provides an (imperfect) measurement of the quality of periodicals, but does not in any way measure the quality of each article published in a given journal. 1,5 Theoretically, it would be much more appropriate to count the number of citations received for each article, as a measurement of its quality. However, such a procedure would have limited applicability for evaluating the scientific production of postgraduate students and their supervisors. 5The particular features of each area of interest or each specialty need to be taken into consideration and respected. Support and incentives need to be expanded: these could come in the form of bursaries for editors, financial support for p...
