Brazilian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism is a peer-reviewed medical journal covering clinical and basic research in Endocrinology, Metabolism and related fields, published by the Brazilian Society of Endocrinology and Metabolism. The journal publishes original research, reviews, guidelines and case reports that address diseases such as Diabetes mellitus, Thyroid disease, Osteoporosis and disorders of the Adrenal gland. It serves researchers and clinicians across Brazil, Latin America, North America, Europe and other regions.
The journal originated as Arquivos Brasileiros de Endocrinologia e Metabologia in the mid-20th century and evolved alongside institutions such as the University of São Paulo, Federal University of Rio de Janeiro and the Oswaldo Cruz Foundation. Editorial developments paralleled advances in endocrine science marked by contributions from figures associated with Harvard Medical School, University of Cambridge, Johns Hopkins University, Karolinska Institutet and the Max Planck Society. Its rebranding to the current title reflected shifts in internationalization similar to policies at the New England Journal of Medicine, The Lancet, Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism and other specialty journals. Over decades the journal has documented regional responses to global events such as the rise of type 2 diabetes epidemiology, collaborations with societies like the International Diabetes Federation, and methodological changes influenced by standards from the World Health Organization and the Pan American Health Organization.
The journal emphasizes original clinical trials, translational studies, epidemiology and guideline statements addressing conditions including Type 1 diabetes, Type 2 diabetes, Metabolic syndrome, Hyperthyroidism, Hypothyroidism, Cushing's syndrome, Addison's disease, Hypogonadism, Polycystic ovary syndrome, and complications such as Diabetic nephropathy, Diabetic retinopathy and Cardiovascular disease. Reviews often synthesize work from institutions like the National Institutes of Health, European Society of Endocrinology, American Diabetes Association, Sociedade Brasileira de Diabetes, Royal College of Physicians and research centers such as the Institute of Molecular Medicine, Mayo Clinic, Cleveland Clinic and Imperial College London. The journal also publishes consensus statements and practice guidelines developed in collaboration with professional bodies including the Endocrine Society, American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists, Society for Endocrinology and regional medical associations in Argentina, Chile, Colombia and Mexico.
The publisher, the Brazilian Society of Endocrinology and Metabolism, administers editorial policies and ethical standards informed by committees like the Committee on Publication Ethics and networks such as the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors. The editorial board has included editors and associate editors affiliated with universities and hospitals such as University of São Paulo School of Medicine, Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul, Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina da USP, Santa Casa de Misericórdia, Pontifical Catholic University of Rio Grande do Sul and international collaborators from University of Oxford, Stanford University, Yale University, University of Melbourne and McGill University. Governance structures mirror practices at established publishers including Elsevier, Springer Nature, Wiley-Blackwell and Oxford University Press.
The journal is indexed in major bibliographic databases comparable to listings in PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Embase and LILACS. Its metadata are discoverable through services such as CrossRef and citation tracking in platforms like Google Scholar and specialist aggregators including the ExLibris systems used by university libraries at University of Buenos Aires, University of Lisbon and University of Toronto. Indexing has facilitated integration with guideline repositories maintained by organizations such as the World Health Organization and citation networks monitored by the Clarivate Analytics group.
The journal's impact factor and bibliometric indicators have been reported in annual summaries by agencies like Clarivate Analytics and Scimago; its articles are cited by researchers affiliated with institutions including the National Institutes of Health, European Commission, Brazilian Ministry of Health and academic centers at King's College London, University of California, San Francisco and University of São Paulo. It has influenced clinical practice in endocrine units of hospitals such as Hospital das Clínicas de São Paulo and international guideline panels convened by the Endocrine Society and International Society for Clinical Densitometry. Scholarly reception includes commentary in journals like The Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology, Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, Diabetologia and regional publications of the Pan American Health Organization.
The journal is distributed in print and electronic formats through platforms used by academic publishers and library consortia at institutions including SciELO, REDALyC, PubMed Central and university repositories at Universidade de São Paulo and Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro. Publishing models include open access options and subscription arrangements similar to those of Nature Publishing Group and society journals, enabling dissemination to clinicians, researchers and trainees in endocrine centers across Africa, Asia, Europe, North America and South America. Contributing authors frequently come from collaborative networks spanning the International Diabetes Federation, Global Alliance for Chronic Diseases and national research councils such as the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development.
