Metrics
“Cites per paper” is a two-year cited-by rate computed from OpenAlex. It is not a Clarivate Journal Impact Factor — we neither compute nor license that metric. Citation rates differ enormously between fields, so compare within a discipline.

Indexing & access
Access status: unknown. Where this comes from publisher-level signals rather than works-level data it is a heuristic — confirm on the journal’s own site, especially regarding any article processing charge.

Frequently asked
Is World Journal of Pediatrics a predatory journal?
Our screening does not flag World Journal of Pediatrics. That is not a guarantee of quality — it means the venue is not on Beall's archive (frozen since 2017) and does not match our name-pattern heuristic. It is listed in Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, which is a positive signal.
Is World Journal of Pediatrics indexed in Scopus or Web of Science?
Per our venue index, World Journal of Pediatrics appears in: Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed. Index membership changes over time — confirm on the index's own site before relying on it.
What is the impact factor of World Journal of Pediatrics?
Papers in World Journal of Pediatrics are cited about 5.1 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q1, with an h-index of 67. Those are the open equivalents: the Clarivate Journal Impact Factor is a proprietary metric we neither compute nor license, so we show the two-year citation rate and Scimago quartile instead — they answer the same question of how heavily the journal is cited. A citation rate is a property of a field as much as of a journal.
What Scimago quartile is World Journal of Pediatrics (Q1, Q2, Q3, or Q4)?
Scimago places World Journal of Pediatrics in Q1 for its subject category. Quartiles split the journals in a field into four equal groups by SJR, so Q1 is the most-cited quarter and Q4 the least; World Journal of Pediatrics is cited about 5.1 times per paper over two years, with an h-index of 67. A journal is ranked per subject category, so one spanning several fields can sit in different quartiles depending on the category.
What is the Web of Science (JCR) quartile of World Journal of Pediatrics?
The Web of Science quartile comes from Clarivate's Journal Citation Reports (JCR), a proprietary product we neither license nor compute — so we cannot state a JCR quartile for World Journal of Pediatrics. The open equivalent is its Scimago quartile, Q1, derived from Scopus citation data. Because JCR ranks against Web of Science and Scimago against Scopus, the two can differ, so check Clarivate's site directly if you need the JCR quartile specifically.
Is World Journal of Pediatrics open access?
We hold no reliable open-access classification for World Journal of Pediatrics. Check the journal's own site for its access model and any article processing charge.
