The first issue of "The Medical-Surgical Journal", the oldest biomedical scientific journal in Romania, appeared in January 1887. Its appearance and evolution were the result of the foundation, in 1833, of the Society of Physicians and Naturalists, the first scientific society in the Romania Principalities, and later on by the development of higher medical education, the Iasi Faculty of Medicine (1879), which since 1990 has become the “Grigore T. Popa” University of Medicine and Pharmacy, Iasi, Romania.
An overview allowed us to notice that the journal also contributed to the creation and completion of the medical vocabulary adapted to Romanian language, becoming a source of scientific and applied medical data, and also being an excellent school for the students and young medical doctors’ training in medical scientific publishing.

SJR
The SJR is a size-independent prestige indicator that ranks journals by their 'average prestige per article'. It is based on the idea that 'all citations are not created equal'. SJR is a measure of scientific influence of journals that accounts for both the number of citations received by a journal and the importance or prestige of the journals where such citations come from
It measures the scientific influence of the average article in a journal, it expresses how central to the global scientific discussion an average article of the journal is.

Citations per document
This indicator counts the number of citations received by documents from a journal and divides them by the total number of documents published in that journal. The chart shows the evolution of the average number of times documents published in a journal in the past two, three and four years have been cited in the current year. The two years line is equivalent to journal impact factor ™ (Thomson Reuters) metric.
