Objective
Case Reports in Perinatal Medicine is a double-blind peer-reviewed journal. The objectives of the journal are very similar to those of JPM. In addition to evidence-based studies, practitioners in clinical practice particularly value exemplary case reports that show specific manifestations of diseases, their progress or their treatment. We consider case reports and series to be brief reports describing an isolated clinical case or a small number of cases. They may describe new or uncommon diagnoses, unusual outcomes or prognosis, new or infrequently used therapies and side effects of therapy not usually discovered in clinical trials. They represent the basic concept of experiences for studies on representative groups for further evidence-based research. The potential roles of case reports and case series are:
Recognition and description of new diseases
Detection of drug side effects (adverse or beneficial)
Study of mechanisms of disease
Medical education and audit
Recognition of rare manifestations of disease
Topics
Unexpected or unusual presentations or processes of a disease
Presentations, diagnoses and/or management of new and emerging diseases
An unexpected association between diseases or symptoms
An unexpected event in the course of observing or treating a patient
Findings that shed new light on the possible pathogenesis of a disease or an adverse effect
Unique therapeutic approaches
Unreported or unusual side effects or adverse interactions involving medications or treatments
Article formats
Case Reports, Case Series, Case Reports and Reviews of the Literature
