Methods and resultsThe study used articles published in volume 318 of the BMJ (1999) in sections titled Papers, General Practice, and Information in Practice. The hit counts (full text articles, HTML version) for the main body of each article within a week of publication were provided by a BMJ staff member because the “hit parade” posted on the journal website was found to be unreliable for 1999. I obtained the number of citations on 24 May 2004 from the ISI Web of Science, an internet service to which the local medical library has a subscription. 1 I also recorded for each paper the study design and the number of pages.
