Introduction: Bibliometric studies allow the evaluation of the metrics generated by a journal and the results obtained help to map strategies for measuring the evolution of the scientific field. Objective: To characterize the scientific production generated by the Revista Información Científica Journal. Material and Methods: An observational, descriptive and bibliometric-type study was conducted using the articles published in the Revista Información Científica online Journal in the period from 2017 to 2019. A search was carried out in Google Scholar; h-index indicators were calculated using the Harzing’s Publish or Perish software. Data normalization was achieved using Zotero reference manager. Gender-focused analysis was carried out to identify authorship. VOSviewer software was used to analyze co-authorship networks. Results: A total of 324 articles, with a variation rate of -54.32%, were published. Also, 57.47% of the scientific content consisted of original articles. A total of 1,297 authors, with a predominance of women (68.47%) and 121 signatory institutions, were reported. Foreign authors represented 3.01% of the total; of them, 23.7% were from Ecuador. On the other hand, 15.81% of the authors belonged to the specialty of Internal Medicine. A total of 5,400 bibliographical references were used; 55.28% of them were articles written by foreign authors. In this period of time, the journal was cited 373 times.
