The article is focused on the dynamics of publication activity of medical universities in Russian Federation over the period of 1996–2019. Based on the number of publications indexed in Scopus database, 28 institutions that have made significant contribution were selected for analysis. Overall, Russian medical universities have demonstrated rapid growth of publication activity over the recent years. Several typical growth patterns were identified, that are shared by the majority of institutions. These patterns were found to be independent of funding and number of staff, or geographic location, and most likely reflect the impact of individual institutional policy in the field of scientific research. Additionally, we investigated the structure of total scholarly output of each institution in terms of scientific fields, frequency of international collaborations, and publication language, all of which have demonstrated significant variability. The dynamics of citation was also analyzed. While medical universities in Russian Federation make advances in terms of publication activity, the citation profile is yet to improve.

本文重点介绍了 1996-2019 年期间俄罗斯联邦医科大学出版活动的动态。根据 Scopus 数据库收录的出版物数量，选择了 28 家做出重大贡献的机构进行分析。总体而言，俄罗斯医科大学近年来的出版活动呈现出快速增长的态势。确定了几种典型的增长模式，这些模式为大多数机构所共有。这些模式被发现与资金和工作人员数量或地理位置无关，并且很可能反映了个别机构政策在科学研究领域的影响。此外，我们调查了每个机构在科学领域的总学术产出结构，国际合作的频率和出版语言，所有这些都表现出显着的可变性。还分析了引文的动态。虽然俄罗斯联邦的医科大学在出版活动方面取得了进步，但引用情况仍有待改善。
