One measure of the impact of a medical article is how often it is cited in other articles. Many authors of articles published in dermatologic journals are seldom, if ever, cited while other authors are often cited. ⋯ A relatively small proportion of all authors account for a high proportion of all citations of the dermatologic literature.
