Abstract

Scientific papers are often assessed by the number of citations they receive in subsequent years. We retrieved the most cited articles published in ‘Indian Pediatrics’ by counting the number of citations on ‘Google scholar’. 17 scientific papers received more than 50 citations; all except one were research articles. The maximum number of most cited articles (six each) were related to neonatology and infectious diseases. Most of these articles made significant impact in formulation of guidelines and/or change in practice and policy.
