Abstract: | This article assesses the Brazilian psychiatric production and compares the numbers of articles published between 1981 and
1995 in Brazilian domestic journals and published in international journals. From the total number of articles analyzed, 87.2%
were published in domestic journals. These probably will never reach the international scientific community. From the articles
published in Brazil, 56.8% were review and opinion articles, while from the articles published in international journals,
69.8% were research articles. Publications in both Brazilian and international journals included few prospective research
studies and research reports dealing with bipolar disorder and cocaine use. On the other hand, alcohol use disorder and major
depressive disorder were the most commonly studied clinical fields published both in domestic and in international psychiatric
journals.
