Venezuelan Biomedical journals have been confronting, for several years, a gradual decline both, from the standpoint of their management and in the quality of their editorial content. At its highest level, Venezuela had about sixty different titles. But irregular financial support, as well as the lack of a clear official policy, regarding these scientific activities, were some of the reasons that have contributed to this decline. Several recent Venezuelan and international documents provide an important legal support for the design of new official policies and government responsibilities. There is now a valid opportunity to profit from new tools to evaluate and improve the quality of our scientific and editorial activities.
委内瑞拉的生物医学期刊在管理和编辑内容质量方面，多年来一直在逐渐下滑。在高峰期，委内瑞拉有大约60种不同的期刊。但财政支持不稳定，以及缺乏针对这些科学活动的明确官方政策，是导致这种下滑的部分原因。最近一些委内瑞拉和国际文件为制定新的官方政策和政府职责提供了重要的法律支持。现在有一个很好的机会，可以利用新工具来评估和提高我们科学和编辑活动的质量。
