Abstract:
Despite some reported limitations, Web of Science has been the standard source to assess the impact of individual articles, and consequently journals. By analysing the citations to articles published in the field of paediatric oncology, we demonstrate that Scopus and Google Scholar, the two new citation databases, retrieve more citations than Web of Science. The strength of Scopus lies in identifying non-English literature from Western and Eastern Europe, while Google Scholar is proficient at identifying English and non-English literature from Africa, Asia and Central and South America. These findings have implications for researchers, journals and health libraries.

Cancer Therapies
However, cancer treatments can pose several challenges, as therapies used to kill cancer cells are generally also toxic to normal cells. Moreover, cancer cells mutate rapidly and can develop resistance to chemical agents or radiation therapy. Besides, all types of cancer cells may not respond to the same therapy. Some cancer cells respond to one...
