Abstract：
UNASSIGNED: Policymaking in order to increase the quality of medical journals needs having accurate data from their current status.
UNASSIGNED: The present study was designed with the aim of introducing a demographic scheme of Iranian journals in the field of medical sciences.
UNASSIGNED: This cross-sectional study was performed on all the medical journals being published in Iran in 2016. The list of all journal titles was extracted by referring to the medical journals databanks (ministry of health, Magiran, IranMedex, Irandoc and…), and the data required for the study were gathered using journals\' homepages or by phone or in person, by attending the journal\'s office.
UNASSIGNED: Totally, 521 journals were assessed. Publication language used was English in 297 (57%) journals and 515 (98.85%) were open access. 381 (73.1%) journals were published quarterly and the year of starting publication was 2010 onwards in case of 245 (48.0%) of journals. There were 29 (5.56%) journals, which were indexed in all 3 databases of ISI, PubMed and Scopus. Only 4.81% of the journals had an official impact factor announced by Thomson-Reuters or Clarivate Analytics Company. Mean time needed for review of articles was 1.89 ± 1.52 (0.5 - 12) months (n = 146) and mean time interval between accepting an article and its print or electronic publication was 3.63 ± 2.17 (0 - 12) months (n = 144). Rate of membership of these journals in COPE and ICMJE were 40% and 27%, respectively.
UNASSIGNED: Most medical journals being published in Iran were English quarterly journals that were regularly published in the fields of general medicine, open access, with university affiliations, centered in the capital, and more than 80% of them had started publishing from 2000 and afterwards.

摘要：
■为了提高医学期刊的质量，需要从其当前状态中获得准确的数据。
■本研究的目的是在医学领域介绍伊朗期刊的人口统计方案。
■这项横断面研究是在2016年在伊朗出版的所有医学期刊上进行的。通过引用医学期刊数据库（卫生部，马吉兰,IranMedex,伊朗医生和...),和研究所需的数据收集使用期刊\'主页或通过电话或亲自，通过参加杂志的办公室。
■完全,对521种期刊进行了评估。297种（57％）期刊中使用的出版语言是英语，515种（98.85％）是开放获取的。381（73.1％）种期刊每季度出版一次，开始出版的年份为2010年起，有245种（48.0％）期刊。有29种(5.56%)期刊，在ISI的所有3个数据库中索引，PubMed和Scopus。只有4.81％的期刊有汤森路透或ClarivateAnalytics公司宣布的官方影响因素。审查文章所需的平均时间为1.89±1.52（0.5-12）个月（n=146），接受文章与其印刷或电子出版物之间的平均时间间隔为3.63±2.17（0-12）个月（n=144）。这些期刊在COPE和ICMJE中的成员率分别为40%和27%，分别。
■在伊朗出版的大多数医学期刊都是英文季刊，定期在普通医学领域出版，开放访问,与大学有联系，以首都为中心，其中80%以上从2000年开始出版。
