Acta Stomatologica Croatica 1987-2012: Online Bibliography
Introduction
The journal Acta stomatologica Croatica has been published continously since 1966 in one volume with
four issues yearly. From the very begining Acta was being published by the School of Dental Medicine in Zagreb and the
Croatian Dental Society of the Croatian Medical Association. By its quality the journal contributes to the good reputation
of the dental profession nationwide, as well as to the reputation of Croatian dentistry worldwide. Since 1998 the articles
are being published bilingual (in Croatian and English), and the journal has become more accessible to the worldwide scientific
community. The concept of the journal has varied throughout the years. Editorials, original scientific papers, preliminary
communications, reviews, professional papers, and case reports included in this bibliography have been peer-reviewed. Other
contributions containing information of permanent significance to the dental profession, such as congress
summaries, professional information of interest, historic overviews, and in memoriam are also included.
The first 20 years of the journal have been adequately marked and summarized by the supplement Bibliography (PDF, 22MB) in 1986.
Therefore, the Editorial board has decided to publish the second bibliography of Acta stomatologica Croatica for the period
from 1987 until 2006 in 40th volume, 4th issue of the journal. In order to make the Bibliography accessible to everyone, an
online version has been created and will be updated countinously.

uniform name of the author. In cases of multile authorship, the information about the paper is repeated under the surnames
of each of the co-authors. Numbers following subject headings in the Author index represent the ordinal number of the articles which are associated to the author.
Subject index
A controlled dictionary of terms of the National Library of Medicine – MeSH Browser has been used for subject analysis
(http://www.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/MBrowser.html). In cases when the subject of the paper is a person,
non-MeSH subject headings have been used. Numbers following subject headings in the Subject index represent the ordinal number of the articles
which are associated to the specific subject heading. By selecting a subject heading, a list of papers on the specific topic is given.
