Acta Ortopedica Brasileira completes 22 years in 2014 with more than 900 published articles. During these years the main objective of the journal was to contribute to the dissemination of quality scientific knowledge in the area of Orthopedics among the national and international medical and research community.
As editors of Acta Ortopedica Brasileira, we have always dedicate ourselves to teaching and academic research as an extremely important work that we exercise voluntarily, for the sake of strengthening of Brazilian journals and value the post-graduate studies in the field of Orthopedics, always prioritizing publications originated from the Brazilian Master’s and Doctoral academic programs.
Acta integrates the SciELO database since 2003, and it is also indexed in the Web of Science, Scopus, LILACS and Redalyc. We kept the effort to constantly improve the scientific and editorial quality of Acta Ortopedica Brasileira, culminating with the ultimate goal that chased us since the creation of this journal 22 years ago, indexing in PubMed and PubMed Central. PubMed Central (PMC), an important archive of biomedical journal literature, which meets the strict scientific and technical standards, was developed and is operated by the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), a division of the National Library of Medicine (NLM) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) of the United States.
Indexing Acta Ortopedica Brasileira in PubMed and PMC is undoubtedly the most important goal we achieved. We will continue to strive for excellence in editorial work for the journal to represent the scientific research of Brazil in the area of Orthopedics with the quality and the requirements of international indexes.
We hope to continue with the invaluable support and cooperation of all Professors of our Editorial Board, without which none of our goals would have been achieved.
