Launched in 1943, Medicina Clínica is a fortnightly journal aimed at the promotion of clinical research and practice among internal medicine and other specialists. The key characteristics of Medicina Clínica are the scientific and methodological rigor of its manuscripts, the topicality of its contents, and, especially, its practical focus with highly useful information for clinical practice. Medicina Clínica is predominantly interested in publishing original research manuscripts, which are rigorously selected according to their quality, originality, and interest, and also in continued medical education-oriented manuscripts, which are commissioned by the journal to relevant authors (Editorials, Reviews, and Diagnosis and Treatment). These manuscripts contain updated topics with a major clinical or conceptual relevance in modern medicine. The journal adheres to the standards of academic research publications in all aspects including peer-review and ethical principles. Medicina Clínica is included in the General and Internal Medicine category of Thomson Reuters.

The field of haemostasis and thrombosis has witnessed significant developments during the last few decades. While the upcoming of biochemistry, cell biology and later of molecular biology as new research tools has constantly been reflected in the journal, it nevertheless continues to devote many of its pages to traditional clinical pathophysiology.The journal features original contributions reporting the latest findings on the pathology, physiology and biochemistry of haemorrhagic disease and thrombosis as well as on their diagnosis and treatment. In addition to in-depth studies of such topics as blood coagulation factors, fibrinolysis, platelets and vascular biology, readers will find extensive data on clinical results with heparin, oral anticoagulants and newer anti-thrombotics.These experimental and clinical investigations are supported by occasional authoritative reviews to make the journal a full record of current research on thrombosis and haemostasis and its clinical implications.

Quality and Quantity constitutes a point of reference for European and non-European scholars to discuss instruments of methodology for more rigorous scientific results in the social sciences. The journal publishes papers on models of classification, methods for constructing typologies, models of simulation, neural networks and fuzzy sets for social research, mathematical models applied to social mobility, mathematical models of voting behavior, qualitative methodology and feminist methodology, discussions on the general logic of empirical research, analysis of the validity and verification of social laws, and similar topics. Quality and Quantity is an interdisciplinary journal which systematically correlates disciplines such as mathematics and statistics with the social sciences, particularly sociology, economics, and social psychology. The journal extends discussion of interesting contributions in methodology to scholars worldwide, to promote the scientific development of social research.

The Review of Philosophy and Psychology is a peer-reviewed journal focusing on philosophical and foundational issues in cognitive science. The aim of the journal is to provide a forum for discussion on topics of mutual interest to philosophers and psychologists and to foster interdisciplinary research at the crossroads of philosophy and the sciences of the mind, including the neural, behavioural and social sciences. The journal publishes theoretical works grounded in empirical research as well as empirical articles on issues of philosophical relevance. It includes thematic issues featuring invited contributions from leading authors together with articles answering a call for papers. The Review of Philosophy and Psychology is published quarterly and is hosted at the Jean Nicod Institute, a research centre of the French Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique. It was formerly published as the 'European Review of Philosophy' by CSLI Publications, Stanford.
