Hong Kong Medical Journal is indexed on MEDLINE as:

Abstracts of the HKMJ from 1997 are available in MEDLINE under the abbreviation Hong Kong Med J. Abstracts and citations (except book reviews) of back issues will also be added gradually. The abstracts are coded and uploaded to the US National Library of Medicine by the HKMJ Editorial Office. While every care has been taken to ensure the accuracy of the uploaded version, the HKMJ, HKAM, and HKMA accept no responsibility for any errors or omissions. Authors should note that the institution of only the first author is stated in MEDLINE abstracts. Furthermore, only the first two initials of each author are quoted in MEDLINE abstracts; accordingly, authors are asked to consider carefully which initials they quote in the HKMJ article. Further information about indexing and the progress of uploading back issues can be obtained from the Managing Editor directly. Please refer to the contact information of the Editorial Office.
