Abstract

There are three main citation databases in the world (Web of Science, SCImago and Scopus) determining journal quartiles annually according to their own datasets and methodologies. The aim of this editorial is to analyze bibliometric indicators of the journal “Bulletin of Rehabilitation Medicine” (BRM) in Scopus. According to CiteScore 2022, BRM ranked 101/146 in the subject category MEDICINE-REHABILITATION which placed BRM in Q3. Over a past year, BRM increased its citation 51-fold, and its CiteScore 8-fold. In the period of 2019–2022 more than 50 authors from almost 20 countries published in BRM. During the same period almost half of BRM articles received citations not only in Russian journals indexed in Scopus but also in sources from 13 other countries. Besides, BRM produces twice the average number of publications per year in its subject category. Thus, such bibliometric picture of BRM in combination with open access and no article processing charges, demonstrates a strong editorial position of the journal and a clear competitive advantage for authors.
