Establishing a Libyan Medical Research Council is Urgently Needed

Abstract

To the Editor: I read with interest the study by Bakoush et al addressing the issue of medical publication in Libya [1]. The number of published reports from Libya was compared with another three Arabic countries (Morocco, Tunisia and Yemen). I suggest to the authors the extention of their study to include all twenty-three Arabic countries. This would enhance our knowledge of the scientific productivity of the Arab world.
