The Korsakov Journal of Neurology and Psychiatry (Russian: Журнал неврологии и психиатрии им.

'Journal of Neurology and Psychiatry named after S. S. Korsakov') is a Russian peer-reviewed scientific and practical journal.

The authors noted that "the manner in which the material was presented (the lack of appropriate descriptions) did not allow for a judgment on their scientific validity (degree of evidence), and this automatically disqualified such works from being considered scientific, emphasizing the importance of adhering to formalities and demanding thoroughness from authors in presenting the essence of their work.

Nemtsov pointed out that the editors of the journal bore some responsibility for the low scientific quality of the materials, as they did not work sufficiently with the authors.

Nemtsov, based on an analysis of psychiatric articles conducted 10 years prior, the qualifications in this field had not changed at all during that period.
