History

In 2008, a novel thematic issue, “Mother & Child”, covering the problems of obstetrics, gynecology, and pediatrics, emerged in a periodic line of the Russian Medical Journal. Initially, the issue was published twice a year. A large circulation, free distribution among healthcare facilities and doctors provided high-quality information to doctors of all Russian regions. As a result, the journal gained trust.

This area was highly useful. By 2017, these thematic issues were published four times a year (at the end of each quarter).

There was a need for an issue leader, an expert in this field who will determine scientific and clinical topics to discuss in the journal, involve colleagues from various medical institutions and Russian cities and the nearest and far abroad, introduce recent advances and novel trends in obstetrics, gynecology, and pediatrics to Russian doctors, and present the experience of foreign experts, distinct views of the same issue, and practical guidelines.

It was Yuliya E. Dobrokhotova, Doct. of Sci. (Med.), Professor, Honored Doctor of Russian Federation, Head of the Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology of the Pirogov Russian National Research Medical University who became this leader.

Under the leadership of Prof. Dobrokhotova, the issues of the “RMJ. Mother & Child”, grown into a practical and scientific periodical. Finally, in 2018, this issue became a separate journal, “Russian Journal of Woman and Child Health” (ISSN 2618-8430 [Print], 2686-7184 [Online]) published four times a year. 

Today

“Russian Journal of Woman and Child Health” is currently a peer-reviewed scientific-practical journal published four times a year that is involved in postgraduate education by providing scientific and practical information to physicians.

All submitted manuscripts undergo single-blind peer review. Recognized experts in the relevant field are engaged in the peer-review process.

The articles discuss important topics in obstetrics, gynecology, and pediatrics. The acceptable languages of manuscripts are Russian and English.

Andrey L. Zaplatnikov, Doct. of Sci. (Med.), Professor, Vice-chancellor for Instructional Work of the Russian Medical Academy of Continuous Professional Education is the chair of the pediatric section.

The authors and reviewers are the leading Russian and near abroad experts in obstetrics, gynecology, and pediatrics. The Editorial Board includes members from abroad each of which suggests themes of articles to be published. As a result, the articles cover issues that are important for both Russian and world science.

The most interesting, in the view of Russian Editorial Board members, article of each issue is translated into English and posted on the website so that foreign Editorial Board members can read and review it. The other aim is to make the journal available to the worldwide medical community.

Free distribution among Russian obstetricians, gynecologists, and pediatricians is an important characteristic of the journal that makes it available regardless of doctor’s income.

All articles since 2014 are open-access and published online. They are available in text and PDF format to provide easy reading and working with materials.

The engagement of leading Russian experts as authors, broad representation at large events, high printing quality, and free distribution are possible thanks to the partnership with major Russian and foreign pharmaceutical corporations.
