Coração, exercício e os arquivos brasileiros de cardiologia

Abstract

The Brazilian Archives of Cardiology (ABC) is the most important and oldest scientific publication of Brazilian cardiology. Since its third volume was published in 1950, its articles have been indexed in Medline, and since then the journal has received more than 6,700 contributions (including original articles, review articles, case reports and other forms of written communication). Currently, ten associate editors, from different areas of our specialty, help the editor in chief to select the articles and prepare each issue. The specific areas are clinical and surgical, interventional and pediatric cardiology, in addition to arrhythmia, noninvasive diagnostic methods, experimental and basic research, epidemiology/statistics, arterial hypertension, and, as of March 2011, ergometry, exercise and cardiac rehabilitation.
