Biomedical informatics from a bibliometric perspective. A bibliometric study was conducted to determine the development of biomedical informatics in the last decade of the 20th century. Thirty-four journals specialized in this field and indexed by the Institute for Scientific Information of Philadelphia were selected and the Journal Citation Report covering the evaluated period was consulted to determine the average impact factor as well as the increase index of the impact factor of each of them. Also the general average impact factor of journals published between 1992 and 1999 and the general increase index of the general average impact factor were estimated. The results were shown in graphs and the 10 top journals according to the highest average impact factor reached, the highest increase index of their impact factor and the highest impact factors accrued in the evaluated period were recorded. Finally comments are made on the main applications of informatics in Biomedicine and the advantages of the analysis of citations made by the Institute for Scientific Information to assess the performance of a biomedical discipline.
