Description
The American Journal of Medicine - "The Green Journal" - publishes original clinical research of interest
to physicians in internal medicine, both in academia and community-based practice. The American Journal of Medicine is the official
journal of The Association of Professors of Medicine, a prestigious group comprised of chairs of departments of internal medicine at
more than 125 medical schools across the country. Each issue carries useful reviews as well as seminal articles of immediate interest
to the practicing physician, including peer-reviewed, original scientific studies that have direct clinical significance, and position
papers on health care issues, medical education, and public policy. The journal's ISI factor - the international measure of cited manuscripts
and scientific impact - is eleventh in the world among all general medical journals.
The AJM publishes studies performed
by multi-center groups in the various disciplines of medicine, including clinical trials and cohort studies from large patient populations,
specifically:
- Phase I, phase II, and phase III studies performed under the auspices of groups such as general clinical research
centers, cooperative oncology groups, and the like.
- Reports of patients with common presentations or diseases, especially
studies that delineate the natural history and therapy of important conditions.
- Reviews oriented to the practicing internist
and diagnostic puzzles, complete with images from a variety of specialties.
- Careful physiological or pharmacological studies
that explain normal function or the body's response to disease.
- Analytic reviews such as meta-analyses and decision analyses
that use a formal structure to summarize an important field.
