Revisão de artigos de ortopedia e medicina esportiva publicados em periódicos brasileiros

Abstract

The purpose of this review is to present the most relevant articles on Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine published in Brazilian non-orthopedic medical journals indexed by ISI. These papers represent the most important contributions to this area of knowledge over the last two years. A total of thirty-eight papers were located for this period, published in different Brazilian journals and with different research designs. It is clear that better divulgation of papers on Orthopedics and Sports Medicine in general journals is needed, to give specialists a better source of reference and research.

As a conclusion we can observe that the number of publications on studies of the musculoskeletal system exhibits progressive presence in general journals, which continues to show the existence of room for growth for specialized publications.…”
