It obtained its current title in 1981, when ABDC assumed its publication, accepting papers in English only. The initial editors-in-chief were Lewis Joel Greene, Eduardo Moacyr Krieger, and Sérgio Henrique Ferreira (Faculty of Medicine of Ribeirão Preto). Of the original three, only Greene remains as editor.
