摘要内容如下：

医学和健康期刊与殖民实践的历史和当代一致性需要阐明。殖民主义试图剥削殖民地人民和地方，其理由是殖民地人民的认识和存在方式不如殖民者的偏见。因此，包括学术期刊在内的知识生产和传播机构是今天维持殖民主义及其遗产的核心。在《柳叶刀》出版200周年之际，这一特邀观点聚焦于《柳叶刀》，考虑到《柳叶刀》的全球影响力，这一观点尤为重要。我们用过去和现在的例子阐明了《柳叶刀》和殖民主义之间的联系，展示了该杂志如何合法化并继续促进健康和医学领域特定类型的知识、知识、观点和解释。《柳叶刀》在殖民主义中的作用并不是独一无二的；大英帝国的其他机构和出版物通过殖民活动与帝国建设合作。因此，我们建议进行调查并提出问题，以鼓励对声称在全球知识生产中处于领先地位的期刊的实践、受众、立场和所有权进行更广泛的争论。

英文原文如下：

Abstracts

The historical and contemporary alignment of medical and health journals with colonial practices needs elucidation. Colonialism, which sought to exploit colonised people and places, was justified by the prejudice that colonised people's ways of knowing and being are inferior to those of the colonisers. Institutions for knowledge production and dissemination, including academic journals, were therefore central to sustaining colonialism and its legacies today. This invited Viewpoint focuses on The Lancet, following its 200th anniversary, and is especially important given the extent of The Lancet's global influence. We illuminate links between The Lancet and colonialism, with examples from the past and present, showing how the journal legitimised and continues to promote specific types of knowers, knowledge, perspectives, and interpretations in health and medicine. The Lancet's role in colonialism is not unique; other institutions and publications across the British empire cooperated with empire-building through colonisation. We therefore propose investigations and raise questions to encourage broader contestation on the practices, audience, positionality, and ownership of journals claiming leadership in global knowledge production.
