What percent of abstracts presented at the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons annual meeting are submitted, survive peer review, and eventually are published? The answer to this fundamental question is important because many national meeting attendees use the unscrutinized information that is presented to alter their surgical practices. At the 1993 American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons meeting, 573 abstracts were presented. After a 5-year period, 44% of abstracts presented were published as papers in a peer reviewed journal. The results suggest that for various reasons, the majority of presented material at the Academy meeting has not been authenticated scientifically to be as accurate as papers that survive the rigors of peer review.
在美国骨科医师学会年会上发表的摘要中，有多少是经过提交、通过同行评审并最终得以发表的呢？这个基本问题的答案很重要，因为许多参加全国性会议的人会依据会上所展示的未经审查的信息来改变他们的手术操作。在1993年美国骨科医师学会会议上，共展示了573篇摘要。经过5年时间，所展示摘要中有44%作为论文发表在经过同行评审的期刊上。结果表明，由于各种原因，学会会议上展示的大部分材料尚未经过科学验证，无法保证像经受住同行评审严格考验的论文那样准确。
