The Pediatric Infectious Disease Society of the Philippines (PIDSP) Journal has been in circulation since 1996. To this day, it remains to be indexed in the Western Region Pacific Index Medicus (WPRIM), the regional bibliographic index of medical journals published by Member States of the Region. A major target for the journal this year is the planned transition to an online manuscript submission and review system. E-REVIEWS or Enhancing Research Dissemination Via An Efficient Web-based Journal Management System is underway. Preparations for wider indexing is a not too distant project. As the journal committee continues to raise the bar with its timely and relevant publications, we perceive the need for a more comprehensive Publication Ethics and Publication Malpractice Guideline based on the Code of Conduct and Best Practice Guidelines for Journal Editors of the Committee on Publication Ethics. For this reason, the Journal Team is featuring the first of a series of guidelines related to ethics in medical publication to govern all stakeholders.
