Objective: The Revista Portuguesa de Clínica Geral (Portuguese Journal of General Practice) is the most known and prestiged Portuguese journal on General Practice field. It is therefore important to know about the citation of articles published in the Journal. Design: In an observational and descriptive work all the numbers and articles published were reviewed by kind of article, total of bibliographic references, total of Portuguese bibliographic references and total of bibliographic references in the Journal, between January 2000 and December 2006. Three quantitative indexes were created. Results: In 357 articles we found an index of 0,05 for the total of bibliographic references, of 0,30 for the Portuguese bibliographic references and between 1,7 and 0,27 for the years 2001 and 2003 for an index measuring the number of articles in the Journal/number of articles published per year. Conclusions: In the light of these findings it seems necessary that Portuguese General Practitioners invest on reading the Journal and that a more easy and friendly way can be arranged for searching articles in the Journal.Downloads
