Bibliographic analysis for the period 2017–2022 showed an extremely small number of literary sources (scientific publications) in both foreign and domestic periodicals, which would cover issues related to the consideration, study and/or analysis of any aspects of publication activity in the field of transplantology at the global, national and regional levels or in with respect to specific organizations, journals and authors. In Russian periodicals, the objects of research are often either various countries of the world (in comparative characteristics with Russia), or medical universities of the Russian Federation, or scientific medical organizations of federal designation, while there is a complete absence or a small number of publications devoted to the issues of publication activity of organizations at the level of the city of Moscow.
