• The Primary Care Respiratory Journal (PCRJ) is a peer-reviewed, Medline-listed, international academic journal relevant to all those working in primary care world-wide, particularly those with an interest in the primary care management of respiratory and allergic diseases.
  
  
• The Primary Care Respiratory Journal is the journal of the United Kingdom General Practice Airways Group (GPIAG), an independent charity representing primary care health professionals interested in delivering optimal standards of respiratory care. The copyright of the PCRJ belongs to its owner, the GPIAG.


• The PCRJ is also proud to be the official journal of the International Primary Care Respiratory Group (IPCRG) – an organisation which is thriving and which now has thousands of members in 34 countries.
  
  
• The PCRJ is listed on Medline/Index Medicus, SCOPUS, EMBASE, SCImago and the National Library for Health, and is available in full text online at this site.
  
  
• The PCRJ is the only specialised respiratory primary care journal listed on Medline/Index Medicus; in fact, it is one of only a handful of primary care journals listed on this prestigious database.
  
  
• The Journal publishes Original Research papers, Short Preliminary Reports, Reviews, Discussion papers, Editorials, Personal Opinions, Case Reports, and Letters relating to all aspects of common respiratory conditions and allergy. The Journal also publishes news and articles concerning the policies and activities of the GPIAG, IPCRG, and related organisations world-wide.
  
  
• The number of papers submitted from well-respected academics and clinicians throughout the world to the PCRJ has trebled over the last three years, and we offer editorial assistance to authors whose first language is not English.
  
  
• The Journal maintains a firm link with its origins – a primary care respiratory journal publishing primary care research pushing the boundaries forward in primary care respiratory medicine.
