Introduction: scientific publication in the field of neurology and neurosurgery plays an important role in the development of Cuban biomedical sciences, so it is necessary to study its research activity. Objective: to characterize the scientific output of the Cuban Journal of Neurology and Neurosurgery between 2017 and 2021. Method: bibliometric, descriptive and cross-sectional study of the articles published in the RCNNC between 2017 and 2021. The universe consisted of 96 articles. The Productivity Index and Price index were used. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Results: original articles predominated (31,25 %); 100 % of the articles were written in Spanish. A total of 258 authors were reported, with a predominance of multiple authorship. The first author of 65,62 % of the articles was a man. The 74,60 % of the authors were small producers, with no reports of large research producers. The country with the highest number of signatories was Cuba (n=206) and the most productive institution was the International Center for Neurological Restoration (60 signatories). A total of 3 123 references were used, of which 2 529 were in English. The Price Index was between 0,00 and 0,45. Conclusions: original articles, written in Spanish and multi-authored, constituted the core of the journal's production. Male authors and small producers led the scientific output. There was a marked editorial and institutional endogamy. Bibliographic references in English were the most common, as well as a low Price Index. |
