abstract: Between 1989 and 1991 16 Austrian pediatric institutions published 232 scientific papers with a total impact-factor of 200,406 in internationally recognized journals. Seventy-three percent of them came from only three institutions, the University departments of pediatrics in Graz and Vienna and the St. Anna Children's Hospital (77, 63 and 30 publications, respectively). The impact-factor (IF) of these publications ranged from 7.591 to 0.010. The average IF was 0.864 and the median IF 0.430 per paper. Whereas 70 papers (30%) were published in journals with an IF over 1, only one third appeared in pediatric journals.
