Impact and Legacy[edit | edit source]
The *Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine* was highly regarded in the medical community for its contributions to pediatric research and practice. It served as a valuable resource for pediatricians, researchers, and healthcare professionals dedicated to improving child and adolescent health.
