[Greek dental journals: statistics on their scientific reports of the years 1982-1986].
Since the number of dental journals grows bigger every year it becomes important for the practitioner researcher teacher and editorial stuff to be informed for the content of the journals. The scientific reports in four Greek dental journals were recorded and evaluated according to several parameters. All the reports published in the years 1982-1986 were recorded and these were covering more than 90% of the total number of Greek scientific articles of this period. The results revealed an association between field and journal as well as between type of the report and journal, type and number of reports, type and number of authors, type and volume of the report, type and presence of tables, figures or photographs, type and number of references and type and cost of the report. It was also shown that in their largest percent the reports were dealing with Oral Medicine (16%), were of the review type (56.1%), were written by only one author (37.1%), contained no tables (58.8%) or diagrams (53.7%), contained photographs (63.8%), had references on foreign articles (87.7%) and cost not more than 8.000 drs (75.5%).
