title: [Analysis of clinical nurses' publications in national journals].
abstract: This research study identified clinical nurses' publications. A literature review was carried out in three national periodicals between 2000 and 2007, totalizing 1918 articles. Data demonstrated that clinical nurses' authorship or co-authorship of 162 articles (8.5%); titling was not identified in 75 publications; doctors published the most along with nurses; areas with the highest number of articles were health and nursing education, adult and elderly health. It was concluded that nurses have easier access to publish in research groups; resuming practice, even after post-graduation, they do not keep up scientific production. This entire professional category must double efforts to broaden their participation in periodicals.
