As Bakırköy Medical Journal, we are publishing the 3rd issue of this year. As in our previous issues, we have taken care to include publications from quite different branches in this issue. We aim to include more international indexes in order to increase the readability of our journal and to receive more citations of the articles published in our journal. In line with this target, as of September 1, 2019, it was decided to accept only articles written in English in our journal. We would like to inform you that there will not be any loss of rights in the publications submitted in Turkish before this date.

Another issue that we meticulously emphasize is that our ethical standards will be maintained without compromise.

Yours truly
