The discovery by Bayliss & Starling (1902) of the hormonal regulation of pancreatic secretion has rightly been regarded as a major landmark in the development of endocrinology, yet for many years thereafter the study of gastrointestinal hormones was unduly neglected, except in
Journal of Endocrinology is committed to supporting researchers in demonstrating the impact of their articles published in the journal.
The two types of article metrics we measure are (i) more traditional full-text views and pdf downloads, and (ii) Altmetric data, which shows the wider impact of articles in a range of non-traditional sources, such as social media.
