RESUMO
Elseviers Scopus and Scimago Journal & Country Rank (SJR) are reporting inaccurate publication and citation metrics for the Journal of Orthopaedic & Sports Physical Therapy (JOSPT), particularly for the years 2018 and 2019. Despite repeated requests, Elsevier has failed to correct or explain this error to those who use these services, which misrepresents the JOSPT as having a lower impact in the field of musculoskeletal research and rehabilitation. For an accurate representation of the impact of the JOSPT in these fields, authors and readers should rely on the current Web of Science Journal Citation Reports (JCR) and Journal Impact Factor (JIF), which report the Journals current impact factor to be 3.839 and its 5-year impact factor to be 4.053.

Effective April 7, 2008, the US National Institutes of Health (NIH) began to enforce a new law requiring all investigators funded by NIH to submit or have submitted for them to the National Library of Medicine's PubMed Central an electronic version of their final, peer-reviewed manuscripts upon acceptance for publication. Further, these manuscripts must be made publicly available no later than 12 months after their official publication dates.
