The Journal appears 6 times a year, at the end of February, April, June, August, October, and December. In addition | to 3 self-financed supplements on specific topics are generally published annually. The circulation of the Journal is worldwide.

In a peer-review process, | to 4 referees independently evaluate the scientific quality of the submitted manuscripts. The Journal uses a double-blind peer-review system. The elapsed time from submission to publication for the articles published in 1999 averaged |1 months. A decision of acceptance of a manuscript was reached in | to 3 months (average 7 weeks). The Journal is indexed or abstracted in Current Contents, the Science Citation Index, Biological Abstracts, Excerpta Medica, CISDOCE HSELINE, TZXLIRE, NIOSHTIC, etc. For the latest year available, 1999, the impact factor of the Journal was 1.756.
