Dear editor
Periodical assessment and monitoring of journal statistics by editor in chief and other related editorial board bring important insight to determine the quality of scientific production process and provide detail if a journal is paving the way to join the mainstream internationally recognized indexing databases such as ISI [www.webofknowledge.com], Medline [www.Pubmed.org] and Scopus[www.scopus.com] (1, 2). Furthermore, at a glance, such details help authors be well-informed about the quality level of the observed and selected journal to submit their manuscript. In this regards, and to the best of our knowledge, Urmia Medical Journal (UMJ), regardless of 26 years of lifetime (publication start year 1993) has neglected to consider this important issue (3).
