Primera década de la revista Investigación Clínica en la “Web”.
First decade of the journal Investigación Clínica on the “Web”
Abstract
The Investigación Clínica journal is a scientific information medium, which was founded more than 60 years ago. In order to analyze its projection in the current scientific field, we evaluated on its official “website”, the period of time between January 2011 and December 2020, in a general way and separately in two five-year periods. Investigación Clínica has been visited by 18,513 individuals from 104 countries on five continents. As expected, the country that made the most visits was Venezuela, followed by Mexico, the United States, Spain and Ecuador (5,081, 4,265, 1,389, 1,262 and 1,134, respectively). In the first five-year period (2011 to 2015), very similar results were found to those of the global analysis; there were visits from users from 93 countries, and in the distribution, Venezuela again ranked first, followed by Mexico, the United States, Spain and Colombia (3,366, 3,103, 746, 671 and 368 respectively). In the second five-year period (2016 to 2020), the network was visited by users from 86 countries in the following order of frequency: Venezuela, followed by Mexico, Ecuador, the United States and Spain (1,715, 1,162, 1,024, 643 and 591 respectively). The experience with the use of the “Network” or the “Web” has been very positive, in making the Journal known in distant countries, as can be seen with the appearance of authors and papers from countries such as Mexico, Ecuador and Colombia, in America and others who come from distant countries such as Iraq, Syria, Iran, and in recent times, China.
