To evaluate the scientific impact of presentations at the annual meetings of the Society of University Surgeons (SUS) and the Association for Academic Surgery (AAS).
All Abstracts presented at the 2002-2004 annual conferences were examined for publication rate (PR), publication citation (PC) and journal impact factor (IF).
Overall, 1200 abstracts from the SUS (n = 543,45%) and AAS (n = 657,55%) were reviewed. One way ANOVA analysis of SUS results across session types demonstrated significant differences in PR (89% plenary, 81% parallel, 100% basic science, 47% resident conference, poster 76%, p < 0.0001), but no difference in PC (12.96 plenary, 9.66 parallel, 7.77 basic science, 8.23 resident conference, 8.21 poster, p = 0.25561) or IF (4.17 plenary, 3.50 parallel, 2.66 basic science, 3.12 resident conference 3.13 poster, p = 0.3947). AAS results demonstrated significant differences for PR (81% plenary, 62% parallel and 43% poster, p < 0.0001), CR (8.33 plenary, 4.81 parallel, and 4.78 poster, p = 0.006) and IF (3.75 plenary, 2.64 parallel, and 2.73 poster, p = 0.0124). Comparison of abstracts between meetings demonstrated a higher overall PR, CR and IF for SUS publications (p < 0.0001).
These data suggest that SUS and AAS presentations constitute high-quality research, Trends towards higher PR, PC and IF for plenary sessions indicate that the review process properly stratifies research. Statistically higher impact measures for SUS presentations are consistent with the more mature research careers of SUS members.
评估在大学外科医生协会（SUS）和学术外科协会（AAS）年会上发表演讲的科学影响力。
对2002 - 2004年年会提交的所有摘要进行发表率（PR）、发表引用次数（PC）和期刊影响因子（IF）的审查。
总体而言，共审查了来自SUS（n = 543，45%）和AAS（n = 657，55%）的1200篇摘要。对SUS不同会议类型结果的单因素方差分析显示，发表率存在显著差异（全体会议89%，平行会议81%，基础科学会议100%，住院医师会议47%，海报展示76%，p < 0.0001），但发表引用次数（全体会议12.96，平行会议9.66，基础科学会议7.77，住院医师会议8.23，海报展示8.21，p = 0.25561）或期刊影响因子（全体会议4.17，平行会议3.50，基础科学会议2.66，住院医师会议3.12，海报展示3.13，p = 0.3947）无差异。AAS的结果显示，发表率（全体会议81%，平行会议62%，海报展示43%，p < 0.0001）、发表引用次数（全体会议8.33，平行会议4.81，海报展示4.78，p = 0.006）和期刊影响因子（全体会议3.75，平行会议2.64，海报展示2.73，p = 0.0124）存在显著差异。会议间摘要比较显示，SUS发表的总体发表率、发表引用次数和期刊影响因子更高（p < 0.0001）。
这些数据表明，SUS和AAS的演讲构成了高质量的研究。全体会议发表率、发表引用次数和期刊影响因子呈上升趋势，表明评审过程对研究进行了合理分层。SUS演讲在统计学上更高的影响力指标与SUS成员更成熟的研究经历一致。
