Keep. After all the e-prints of this journal are removed from Google Scholar results
[1], there are still quite a few results. Also, I assume that "Kozhikode Medical College" is the same as "
Calicut Medical College", there are a few English articles from Indian sources.

You are right, Calicut Medical College and Kozhikode Medical College are the same. Salih(talk) 05:26, 12 December 2009 (UTC)reply
Keep Per the sources found by John Vandenberg. Somebody should add them to the article (which is not very good at this point). --

Why would being listed in general lists of medical journals make this medical journal notable? Abductive (

Lists of medical journals for reference use generally do not include ones which are not notable or usable as reference. They are, if you will, a reference for which medical journals are accepted for reference. They are definitely more discriminating than WP is as far as notability goes <g>.

Insofar as they represent decisions by third parties as to notability, I suppose so (they would be secondary sources). As lists in themselves, they would be tertiary sources (WP definitions in such cases seem to fail), so an article should not copy lists from such sources.

Yes, but what lists? The article doesn't mention any lists. Abductive (
