Purpose: The aim was to verify if changing the Journal of Gastric Cancer (JGC) to only English (starting in December 2010) was successful based on bibliometrics. Materials and Methods: The following indicators were retrieved or calculated from the journal homepage and the Web of Science Core Collection on January 30, 2016: the number of citable articles per year; the number of original articles funded; the national origins of the editorial board members and authors; the total citations; the impact factors; the national origins of authors citing the journal; the source titles of articles citing the journal; and the Hirsch index. Results: From 2011 to 2015, the number of citable articles per year was 40, 41, 39, 39, and 40. The proportion of original articles funded was 39 out of 113 articles (34.5%). The editorial board members were from seven countries. The authors were from 11 countries. The total citations increased from 1 in 2011 to 245 in 2015. From 2013 to 2015, the impact factors (without self-citations) were 1.42, 1.36, and 1.60. In 2014, the value 1.60 corresponded to the ranking of 157 out of 210 oncology journals (74.8%); It was cited from 46 countries. Top-ranking countries of citing authors were China (171), Korea (158), and Japan (75). The number of source titles citing the journal was more than 100. The Hirsch index was 12. Conclusions: The English-only language policy, which started in December 2010, was successful in promoting the JGC to international levels from the perspective of bibliometric analysis.

Global status of aquaculture and aquaculture scientific journals is briefly described. Asia is the centre of fishing and aquaculture activities but most publishers, editors and editorial board members of fisheries and aquaculture journals are from Europe and/or USA. The contribution by Asian fisheries/aquaculture scientists to these journals remains low. Language barrier and requirement for monitory investment seem to inhibit Asian participation in this realm of scientific activity. The need for glob-alization of aquaculture scientific journals is emphasized. Selected strategies, which are adopted by the Western journals to improve their image and management, are indicated.

'The Journal of Medicine and Life Science' renewed editorial board and guidelines for authors, and opened online submission system (http://www.jops.co.kr/ojms/JMLS). Herein I, editor-in-chief of 'The Journal of Medicine and Life Science', did self-assessment on the history and current status of the journal and suggested perspectives on the journal.

Objectives : This article aims to give guidance on the conduct and reporting of case series and audits of acupuncture, based on common problems that have arisen in the past. This type of project, and particularly the prospective case series or pre- post-intervention study, may give valuable evidence of the overall effectiveness of acupuncture-for example in different situations and in different conditions- and provides one step in the research pathway before generating an hypothesis. Results & Discussion : The project should be designed with the aim of reducing bias as much as possible. Careful and detailed planning is essential for the project to produce worthwhile results that readers can evaluate and replicate. Ethical issues should be considered and formal approval may be necessary. The patient group should be recruited systematically and baseline data obtained. The treatment given should be systematic and decisions to change or end treatment made explicit. The outcome should be measured in ways that are known to be reliable and valid. Musculoskeletal problems can be evaluated with scales for pain and confirmed by measuring one other symptom such as stiffness or one other aspect such as bothersomeness. Global change scores also provide supporting information, and the MYMOP (Measure Yourself Medical Outcome Profile) measure is popular when patients with different conditions are included. The design of questionnaires for beliefs and attitudes is a specialised area that should not be attempted without expert help. Adverse events should also be recorded. Analysis of the data and the best way of summarising and presenting the results are also discussed.

본 연구는 JCR에 등재된 문헌정보학 분야 국제학술지를 중심으로 학술지 편집위원과 저자의 국적 다양성을 분석하고 Simpson 다양성 지수(Simpson's Diversity Index)를 통해 계량화하였다. 더불어 편집위원 국적 다양성이 저자의 국적 다양성을 유도할 수 있는지 확인하고, 학술지의 특성에 따라 다양성 지수에 차이가 나타나는지 검증하였다. 분석 결과, 첫 번째, LIS 국제 학술지의 편집위원 국적 다양성 지수는 0.64로 0.76인 저자 국적 다양성에 미치지 못하는 것으로 나타났으며, 편집위원과 저자의 국적 다양성은 높은 상관계수를 보이는 것으로 확인되었다(r = 0.79). 두 번째, IS(Information Science) 분야 저널은 편집위원과 저자 기여국에서 모두 0.8 전후의 높은 다양성이 나타났으나 LS(Library Science) 분야는 상대적으로 저조하며 특히 편집위원 다양성에서 0.48의 낮은 지수가 나타났다. 세 번째, 미국은 저자와 편집위원 모두 가장 높은 점유율을 나타내고 있으며, 특히 LS 분야 편집위원에서 53.39%의 압도적 점유를 보이는 것으로 확인되었다. 반면 한국을 포함한 아시아 국가는 저자에 비해 편집위원으로서 기여하는 비율이 미국과 유럽 국가에 비해 낮은 것으로 나타났다.

Objective : We analyzed the published and contributed manuscripts of the journal of Oriental Internal Medicine in 2001. Methods : We analysed 120 manuscripts contributed to the editorial board of Journal of Oriental Internal Medicine from January to December 2001. Each manuscript was reviewed by three judges, was reviewed by two editors of the board and who took notes on the coding sheet. The variables of surveying were yes or no of acceptance, total scores, score of each 9 item, the number of writers and institutes, and languages. Statistical methods were used such as descriptive analysis, independent samples t test, ANOVA, multiple composition, multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results : THe odds ratio in vivo, in vitro study for clinical study were 5.15(95% CI 1.93-13.71), and case series or case-control study for case report were 3.78(95% CI, 1.28-11.19) Conclusions : Although in vivo, the in vitro study had more possibility of acceptance to publish than the clinical study, we should identify that these results are assuming high inter-reviewer reliability.

In commemoration of Vol. 30, Issue 1, our journal prepares four review articles and two original papers. The first review article provides guidelines for medical treatment for emergencies in an aircraft furing flight. This guideline addresses the resources and medical equipment available to physicians on board, common medical conditions, how to deal with them, including legal issues. The second review article covers historically meaningful animals that have contributed to aerospace research and the role of a veterinarian. The third one describes cardiovascular, musculoskeletal, and vestibular physiological effects of microgravity on the human body. As we are about to enter an aging society, the fourth review article introduces guidelines for safe overseas travel for senior passengers. The role of the aviation medical examiner is to maintain aircrew's health and to help them work long and healthy. In this regard, Choi et al. analyzed the physical examination data and sick leave data of an airline. Han et al. investigated the aerospace medical examination data of the Republic of Korea and suggested a solution to some common health problems of the crew.

1999년 11월 공주대학교에서 열렸던 한국 제4기학회 제 26차 학술발표대회에 발표되었던 요약문과 논문들이 한글로 잘 쓰였는가 하는 점에 관심을 두고 훑어보았다. 원고 문장에는 일본말법 표현과 한문이나 영어 같은 외국 단어들과 외국 표현들과 너무 긴 문장들이 간간이 보인다. 또한 의미가 전달되지 않는 문장, 한자를 쓴 어려운 표현, 정확하지 않은 시제와 어법 따위들이 포함돼 있다. 좋은 한글원고를 쓰는 방법으로 교양과학책 독서와 한글 작문 연습을 제안한다. 한글작문연습에는 저자들이 시간 여유를 가지고 쓰고, 동료와 논의하고, 비판을 받아들일 마음을 연 자세들이 포함된다. 편집진들도 원고를 인쇄하기 전에 점검해야 한다.

이 연구는 국제학술지 발행의 한 모범사례로, 전공분야 학회와 관련기관이 협력하여 발행하고 있는 OSJ가 국제학술지로 발전한 요인을 분석하고, 그 분석결과를 바탕으로 국내학술지가 국제학술지로 발전하기 위한 바람직한 운영방안을 제시하였다. 이를 위해 OSJ의 게재논문, 편집진, 인용현황 등을 심층적으로 분석하고, 해외의 유사한 사례와도 비교하였다. 분석결과 관련기관과의 협력, 인용이 많이 되는 논문의 게재 및 특별호 발간 등이 학술지의 국제화를 위해 필요한 것으로 제안하였다.
