Journals where they published, Impact Factors of those journals, articles' references, and times cited were analyzed.The 78 articles published by Acta Medica Portuguesa in 2008 were produced by 259 different authors. Ninety four (36.3%) of those authors wrote 420 articles from 2003 to 2007 indexed at Science Citation Index. These articles were published in 249 different journals, with an average Impact Factor of 2.973 (SD = 2.92). Journal with highest Impact Factor was The Lancet (IF2008 = 28.409) with two papers published. Eighty seven of those authors received some citation to their articles, with a total amount of 5001 cites. Out of the 14035 references on those 420 articles, only 10 cited any article published in Acta Médica Portuguesa.Authors publishing in Acta Médica Portuguesa produce a good amount of international publications in journals with an acceptable Impact Factor and they receive quite a good number of citations.
