Informe anual de los editores de Anales de Pediatría

In this editorial, as has become our tradition, the editors of Anales de Pediatría summarise the proceedings, results and changes occurred in the past year of activity.1 Along with our usual assessment of manuscript processing, the visibility of the journal and the awards given, we review new developments, such as the transition to a new editorial team, actions taken to address the conflicts of interest of editors, the introduction of verification checklists for reviewers, and aspects associated with article submission by authors. The policies and effort of the editors that preceded us2 succeeded in maintaining the upward trend in the visibility of the journal in 2017, and preliminary data suggest that its impact factor has also continued to increase.
