Keywords:
Acta Medica Salinina, history, circulation, indexingAbstract
The period of 50 years of existence of the Acta Medica Saliniana journal represents a long enough period for conducting an analysis of its functioning and to write an editorial about it. It is a great honor of ours to mark this anniversary.
Our objective is to provide an overview of the fundamental principles of the Acta Medica Saliniana's operation, its impact and visibility, as well as to extend an invitation for authors to submit their work to this journal.
Throughout its existence, the journal has undergone two format changes and has been published in three different languages. It is indexed in Scopus, Index Copernicus Master Journal List, EBSCO, The Ulrich's Periodical Directory, Directory of Open Access Journals, Open J-Gate, ProQuest, and Google Scholar, with SJR score of 0.001. In the future, we expect the journal to have a higher impact factor and increased visibility.
