Primary Care Diabetes

Primary Care Diabetes is the official journal of Primary Care Diabetes Europe, published by Elsevier for readers who treat diabetes outside hospital walls.《基层糖尿病》是欧洲基层糖尿病学会的会刊，由爱思唯尔出版，读者是在医院之外诊治糖尿病的人。

Clarivate files it at 142 of 198 in endocrinology and metabolism, which is Q3, and at 12 of 29 in primary health care, which is Q2.科睿唯安把它排在内分泌与代谢 198 种刊的第 142，属 Q3，基层卫生保健 29 种刊的第 12，属 Q2。

The 2026 volume is the 20th, and it arrives in five issues dated February, April, June, August and October.2026 年是第 20 卷，全年五期，分别在二月，四月，六月，八月与十月出。

Volume 20, issue 5 runs to pages 487 to 658, which gives a rough sense of how much text five issues carry.第 20 卷第 5 期排到 487 至 658 页，五期的大致体量由此可以看出。

Scope

• The remit is diabetology as it is practised in a primary care setting, and the journal names clinical care first among its fields.宗旨是基层场景下的糖尿病学，刊物把临床照护列为第一个领域。

• Diabetes education and nutrition follow, and both are treated as research subjects rather than service activities.糖尿病教育与营养紧随其后，两者都当作研究对象处理，而不当成服务项目。

• Health services, psychosocial research and epidemiology complete the named fields, with room left for other areas relevant to primary care.卫生服务，心理社会研究与流行病学构成其余方向，另外给与基层相关的其他领域留了口子。

• The stated purpose is to push interdisciplinary research and discussion among everyone involved in primary diabetes care at an international level.宗旨声明说要推动国际上所有参与基层糖尿病照护的人之间做跨学科研究与讨论。

• Journal space also goes to news and to the policy work of the society, which ties the publication to an organisation rather than to a specialty alone.刊物还留出篇幅登学会动态与政策工作，这使它绑在一个组织上，而不只是一个专科。

• Original Research Papers take 3,000 words with up to 50 references, an abstract of 200 words and no more than five tables or figures.原创研究论文限 3000 词，参考文献至多 50 条，摘要 200 词，图与表合起来不超过五个。

• That abstract is structured into aims, methods, results and conclusions, and keywords are appended to it.摘要按目的，方法，结果，结论分段，关键词附在摘要后面。

• Research submitted here is expected to bear on common diabetes conditions, chiefly clinical work with relevance to primary care or to putting guidelines into practice.投来的研究要落在常见糖尿病问题上，主要是有基层相关性的临床工作，或者把指南落地的研究。

• Questionnaires used in the study have to be submitted with the manuscript, a requirement that few journals keep.研究用到的问卷必须随稿提交，这条要求现在少有人守。

• The discussion section has four prescribed points, covering difficulties met, alternative designs, questions raised and changes to the authors' own practice.讨论一节有四个规定动作，分别写遇到的困难，本可采用的替代设计，新引出的问题，以及作者自己临床做法的改动。

• Reviews get the same 3,000 words but 75 references and a 100-word summary, and the text must carry subheadings.综述同样是 3000 词，但参考文献放宽到 75 条，概述 100 词，正文必须分小标题。

• Brief Reports run to 1,000 words with a 50-word summary and 20 references, and the track holds both preliminary work and a finished report.简报限 1000 词，概述 50 词，参考文献 20 条，阶段性成果与收尾报告都走这一轨。

• Editorials and Commentaries each get 1,000 words and 20 references, and a Debate pairs two commentaries that take opposing positions.社论与评论各限 1000 词与 20 条参考文献，辩论则由两篇立场相反的评论配成一对。

• Discussions are shorter still at 600 words and five references, and they set a single paper in context, usually one from the same issue.讨论更短，600 词与五条参考文献，作用是把某一篇论文放进背景，通常取同期的那篇。

• Letters to the Editor stop at 400 words with five references and one figure or table.读者来信不超过 400 词，参考文献五条，图或表一个。

• Commissioning is normal for reviews and commentaries, but unsolicited versions are considered rather than refused outright.综述与评论通常由编辑部约稿，不过自投稿件也会被考虑，并不是一律拒收。

History

• Volume 1 appeared in 2007, which is also the year MEDLINE began carrying the title with volume 1, number 1.第 1 卷于 2007 年问世，MEDLINE 也在同一年从第 1 卷第 1 期起收录。

• The National Library's own record has no usable start year in that field, so the volume listing is the firmer evidence for 2007.国家医学图书馆那条记录的起始年字段没有可用值，2007 年这个判断依据的是卷期列表。

• Volume and year have kept step since, which puts the 2026 volume at 20 and the arithmetic at year minus 2006.此后卷号与年份同步，2026 年是第 20 卷，算法为年份减 2006。

• The imprint is Kidlington, near Oxford, and the copyright line names Primary Care Diabetes Europe rather than the publisher.出版地是牛津近旁的基德灵顿，版权行写的是欧洲基层糖尿病学会，而不是出版方。

• PubMed and MEDLINE both run from the first issue, and the journal also sits in Science Citation Index Expanded.PubMed 与 MEDLINE 都从第一期收起，刊物同时进《科学引文索引》扩展版。

• The 2025 JCI is 0.87 at percentile 60.3, which sits nearer the primary care rank than the endocrinology one.2025 年 JCI 为 0.87，百分位 60.3，这个位置更靠基层保健那边的位次，而不是内分泌那边。

• Special issues have gathered conference abstracts, among them the Pan Arab Conference on Diabetes and the Middle East Congress on Clinical Nutrition.专刊收过会议摘要，泛阿拉伯糖尿病大会与中东临床营养大会都在其中。

• A 2022 collection on COVID-19 and diabetes remains the most recent themed bundle on the site.2022 年那期新冠病毒与糖尿病的专辑，是网站上最新的主题合集。
