BACKGROUND.: This study aimed to evaluate the scientific production of researchers in the field of Medicine who receive a productivity grant from the CNPq.
The curriculum Lattes of 542 researchers with active grants from 2012 to 2014 were included in the analysis. Grants categories/levels were stratified into three groups according to the CNPq database (1A-B, 1C-D, and 2).
RESULTS.: There was a predominance of grants in category 2. During their academic career, Medicine researchers published 76512 articles, with a median of 119 articles per researcher (IQ, interquartile range, 77 to 174). Among the 76512 articles, 36584 (47.8%) were indexed in the Web of Science (WoS database). Researchers in Medicine were cited 643159 times in the WoS database, with a median of 754 citations (IQ, 356 to 1447). There were significant differences among the categories of grants concerning the number of citations in WoS (P <0.001). There was a significant difference in the number of times researchers were cited according to the specialty included in Medicine area. (P < 0.001).
CONCLUSION.: Strategies to improve the scientific output qualitatively possibly can be enhanced by the knowledge of the profile of researchers in the field of Medicine.
本研究旨在评估获得巴西国家科学技术发展委员会（CNPq）生产力资助的医学领域研究人员的科研产出。
分析纳入了542名在2012年至2014年期间获得有效资助的研究人员的Lattes简历。根据CNPq数据库，资助类别/级别分为三组（1A - B、1C - D和2）。
2类资助占主导。在其学术生涯中，医学研究人员发表了76512篇文章，每位研究人员的中位数为119篇文章（四分位间距，77至174）。在这76512篇文章中，36584篇（47.8%）被收录在科学引文索引（WoS数据库）中。医学领域的研究人员在WoS数据库中被引用643159次，中位数为754次引用（四分位间距，356至1447）。在WoS中的引用次数方面，资助类别之间存在显著差异（P <0.001）。根据医学领域内包含的专业，研究人员被引用的次数存在显著差异（P <0.001）。
通过了解医学领域研究人员的概况，可能可以加强提高科研产出质量的策略。
