with the number of times they are cited in 2018 and 2017 based on Google Scholar Citation Index database. If 'X' is the total number of articles published in 2018 and 2017, and 'Y' is the number of times these articles were cited in indexed journals during 2018 and 2017 then, journal impact factor = Y/X Journal of Clinical Dermatology and Therapy publishes the new, innovative and key excellences in clinical, medical and cosmetic dermatology. This published work is freely available for the readers. For the dissemination of this work, the journal is indexed in Google scholar, Scientific Indexing Services (SIS) and J-Gate and also a member of Crossref, ORCID and Publons. By accessing these articles, the scientists and researchers can advance their work.

This suggests that the literature and continuing medical education are important alternative dermatology educational resources to aid in diagnosing and treating patients of color. Objective This study develops criteria to assess and examine the prevalence of SoC-related publications among top dermatology journals. Methods We developed the first-ever prespecified criteria that allow for the assessment of diversity in the dermatologic literature. The archives of 52 dermatology journals from January 2018 to October 2020, selected based on Scopus ranking, were analyzed for journal characteristics and content regarding skin and hair of color, diversity and inclusion, and socioeconomic/health care disparities that affect underrepresented populations with SoC. Results Our study reveals that the average percentage of overall publications relevant to SoC is quite low. The percent of SoC articles ranged from 2.04% to 16.8% with a mean of 16.3%. The top-performing dermatology journals in SoC were, not surprisingly, from countries with populations with SoC; however, the Journal of Cosmetic and Laser Therapy, Australasian Journal of Dermatology, and Journal of the American Academy of Dermatol Case Reports were among the top 10. Research and higher-impact journals were among the lowest in SoC rankings, including the Journal of Investigative Dermatology, Experimental Dermatology, and Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, and had <5% of articles on SoC. Conclusion We believe that the criteria we established could be used by journal editors to include at least 16.8% of SoC-relevant articles in each issue. Increasing SoC content in the dermatological literature, and particularly in high-impact journals, will serve as an invaluable educational resource and aid in promoting excellence in the care of patients with SoC. Alongside medical training, resources such as textbooks, the research literature, and continuing medical education (CME) courses contribute to the fund of knowledge that dermatologists draw on to treat patients with skin of color (SoC). According to a 2011 report, nearly half of dermatologists believe they have had insufficient exposure to skin disease in darker skin types (Buster, 2011). Most practicing dermatologists completed their residency during a time when the diagnosis and treatment of SoC was
