 Aims and Scope

The word Caspian is derived from the name of the “Caspi” (ancient people that lived to the south west of the sea in Transcaucasia. According to Strabo, the territory called “Caspiane” belongs to the country of the Albanians, which was named after the Caspian tribe, as was also the sea; but the tribe has now disappeared. The Caspian Sea is the largest enclosed body of water on Earth by area, variously classed as the world's largest lake or a full-fledged sea, bounded to the north by Russia, to the south by Iran, western Azerbaijan, and eastern Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan. The Caspian Sea has been called Gilan on ancient maps. In Iran, it is referred to as Daryâ-ye Mazandaran (meaning "the Sea of Mazandaran" in Persian, and sometimes also as Daryâ-ye Khazar). Babol is a city in the Iranian province of Mazandaran, located in the Caspian littoral and north-east of Tehran.
The Caspian Journal of Internal Medicine (CJIM) is an independent, international English- language peer- reviewed journal in Internal Medicine. CJIM is designed for internists a means of scientific information exchange in internal medicine societies.
