Since this article was proposed for deletion in 2013, no new evidence for notability has come forward. It is still not indexed in even a single selective database (it is in PubMed because as an open access journal, it is included in PubMed Central, but it is not included in the more selective MEDLINE and Index Medicus subsets). It is not even included in Scopus, the least selective database among those that WP:NJournals considers "selective". Clear fail of NJournals. No independent sources, so also fails WP:GNG. Hence: Delete. Randykitty (talk) 09:39, 10 May 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete per Randykitty. Journal is also still not frequently cited (compared to notable journals, per the previous deletion discussion in 2013) and there is no indication it is historically important (WP:JOURNALCRIT). DferDaisy (talk) 16:42, 26 May 2018 (UTC)
