Pediatrics International

Pediatrics International (pronounced: pē-dee-ə-triks in-tər-na-shə-nəl) is a peer-reviewed medical journal that focuses on the field of pediatrics. The journal publishes research and clinical studies related to child health on an international scale.

Etymology

The term "Pediatrics" originates from the Greek words 'pais' meaning 'child' and 'iatros' meaning 'doctor or healer'. "International" is derived from the Latin word 'inter' meaning 'between' and 'nationale' meaning 'of a nation'. Thus, Pediatrics International can be interpreted as a global discourse between child health practitioners.

Scope

Pediatrics International covers a wide range of topics related to child health, including but not limited to neonatology, adolescent medicine, immunology, cardiology, neurology, and genetics. The journal aims to promote the exchange of knowledge and information between pediatric researchers and practitioners worldwide.
