What is the impact factor of Neurology?
The impact factor is a figure Clarivate licenses, so it is not shown here. Its open counterpart is the 2-year mean citedness OpenAlex holds for Neurology: 1.29, the mean number of citations received by the journal's papers of the last two years. That ranks Neurology #8,831 of 18,122 journals, in the top 49%. The two figures follow the same idea on different records, so they are not equal.
What is the h-index of Neurology?
OpenAlex gives Neurology an h-index of 525: 525 of its papers have each been cited at least 525 times. That ranks #72 of 18,122 journals.

How these figures are made
Every figure is from OpenAlex's record of this journal, snapshot of 2026-10-14. The 2-year mean citedness is not Clarivate's impact factor: it counts the citations OpenAlex has recorded, so it differs from the licensed figure. Ranks are among the 18,122 journals with at least 1,000 works in OpenAlex and a record in 2025 or later that pass checks for record errors. Method and limits.
