History

The journal has its origins in several journals which merged.

Metabolic Bone Disease and Related Research was established in 1978, with a different ISSN.[1][2]

According to the IBMS website, two scientific journals, Bone[3] (with the same ISSN as this journal; 1985 onwards)[4] and Bone and Mineral[5][6][a] merged under the title Bone, which became the official journal of IBMS, published monthly, until the relationship between the journal and IBMS ended on 31 December 2012. The website notes that Bone went on to become a leading journal in the field, "publishing top-notch, peer-reviewed content on both the basic science and clinical sides".[3]
