Integrity at the Croatian Medical Journal

Abstract

"Editorial independence has surfaced as an issue at the Croatian Medical Journal in the wake of a confrontation between the journal and the most powerful of its 4 owners, the Zagreb University School of Medicine. Most recently, the school has proposed an extensive revision to the journal’s governance structure that would rob the journal of its independence,1 in contravention of almost every aspect of the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors recognized definition of editorial independence."
