English abstract Some information on our readers during my years as coeditor of the Revista de Investigación Clínica are presented on the basis that readers, unlike editors, have no conflict of interest in evaluating scientific publications. The information provided is restricted to the past 6 years (1993-1998) of my 11 years as coeditor since the number of reader visits to our on-line articles began in 1993. The nearly 500 articles published in the 6-year lapse were visited by more than 1 million readers with an outstanding 1998 year of almost 100 articles and near a quarter of a million visits. These figures suggest that our journal became at the end of the 20th Century a valuable information source for physicians in Mexico. It was the original idea that led Salvador Zubirán to launch this journal in 1948
