BACKGROUND CONTEXT
No previous study has considered academic productivity and contributions to the literature among the faculty members of spine fellowship programs.
PURPOSE
We sought to evaluate the total number of publications and measures of academic impact among faculty at spine surgical fellowship programs between 2011 and the present.
STUDY DESIGN
This study is based on a review of data publicly available on PubMed and Scopus.
PATIENT SAMPLE
Physicians listed as faculty at a spine fellowship program in the directory of the North American Spine Society (NASS).
OUTCOME MEASURES
The outcome measures were the number of publications between January 1, 2011 and August 31, 2014 and the h-index for 1996 to present (h-tot) and 2011 to present (h-pres) for faculty members.
METHODS
Fellowship programs and their characteristics were obtained from the directory of the NASS. Program-specific features, including academic affiliation, number of participating faculty, location, number of fellowship positions, dedicated research time, and presence of a research requirement for fellows, were abstracted. The number of publications for faculty at each program between January 1, 2011 and August 31, 2014 and the h-tot and h-pres were obtained from Scopus. Multivariable linear regression was used to identify statistically significant factors associated with increased academic productivity.
RESULTS
Among 75 fellowship programs, with 282 faculty members, there were 55 (73%) with academic affiliation. The average number of publications per faculty member (2011-2014) was 5.5 (standard deviation, 8.4; range, 0-54). The mean h-tot for programs was 13.6 (8.7, 0-37), and mean h-pres was 3.0 (2.2, 0-8.2). Academic affiliation (regression coefficient, 22.1; 95% confidence interval: 7.2, 37.0), and the number of fellows in a program (7.0, 0.9-13.2) was significantly associated with the total number of publications. Similar findings were encountered for average h-tot and h-pres.
CONCLUSIONS
The descriptive statistics presented can help surgeons benchmark their performance and that of their fellowship, compared with others in the field. Determinations regarding characteristics associated with academic productivity may also help programs' fashion future strategic initiatives.
背景信息
以往尚无研究探讨脊柱 fellowship 项目教职员工的学术产出及对文献的贡献。
目的
我们旨在评估 2011 年至今脊柱外科 fellowship 项目教职员工的出版物总数及学术影响力指标。
研究设计
本研究基于对 PubMed 和 Scopus 上公开数据的回顾。
患者样本
北美脊柱协会（NASS）名录中列为脊柱 fellowship 项目教职员工的医生。
观察指标
观察指标为 2011 年 1 月 1 日至 2014 年 8 月 31 日期间的出版物数量，以及教职员工 1996 年至今（h-tot）和 2011 年至今（h-pres）的 h 指数。
方法
从 NASS 名录中获取 fellowship 项目及其特征。提取特定项目的特征，包括学术隶属关系、参与教职员工数量、地点、fellowship 职位数量、专门的研究时间以及对 fellows 的研究要求。从 Scopus 获取每个项目教职员工在 2011 年 1 月 1 日至 2014 年 8 月 31 日期间的出版物数量以及 h-tot 和 h-pres。采用多变量线性回归确定与学术产出增加相关的统计学显著因素。
结果
在 75 个 fellowship 项目中，有 282 名教职员工，其中 55 个（73%）有学术隶属关系。每位教职员工（2011 - 2014 年）的平均出版物数量为 5.5（标准差，8.4；范围，0 - 54）。项目的平均 h-tot 为 13.6（8.7，0 - 37），平均 h-pres 为 3.0（2.2，0 - 8.2）。学术隶属关系（回归系数，22.1；95%置信区间：7.2，37.0）以及项目中的 fellows 数量（7.0，0.9 - 13.2）与出版物总数显著相关。平均 h-tot 和 h-pres 也有类似发现。
结论
所呈现的描述性统计数据可帮助外科医生将自己及其 fellowship 项目的表现与该领域的其他同行进行比较。确定与学术产出相关的特征也可能有助于项目制定未来的战略举措。
