Scopus coverage history
Scopus indexed Medicine Studies for 4 years, between 2009 and 2012. Coverage ended in 2012, 14 years ago, and Scopus now lists the title as inactive.
Is it still publishing? OpenAlex lists 89 works and 707 citations for the title. Its papers appear as late as 2014, 2 years after Scopus coverage ended in 2012. That pattern fits a journal Scopus stopped indexing while it kept publishing, but it can also come from a changed ISSN or merged records. Confirm the journal's current status before submitting.
