Although medical research by French radiology residents is encouraged, their publication productivity remains unknown. Thus, we aimed to assess and analyze the publication rate of medical theses and the overall academic productivity of radiology residents who graduated in 2009 and 2010.
The list of radiology residents and imaging theses were obtained from the French internet database of university theses. The main characteristics of the theses were recorded and correlated with associated publications identified by scanning the PubMed database. All other publications by French radiology residents not related to the theses were also obtained, described and compared to published theses.
Seventy-nine out of 224 (35.3%) medical theses written by French radiology residents in 2009 and 2010 were transformed into articles published in Medline-indexed journals. Residents were first authors in 69% (60/87) of these articles. The factors associated with publication of the thesis were a prospective design (P=0.01) and the publication as a first author of an original study not related to the thesis (P=0.01). Seventy-one percent of the residents had published at least one other article, including 36.6% as first authors.
Academic productivity of French radiology residents is high thanks to published theses and other articles.
尽管鼓励法国放射科住院医师进行医学研究，但他们的发表率仍不清楚。因此，我们旨在评估和分析 2009 年和 2010 年毕业的放射科住院医师的医学论文发表率和整体学术生产力。
从法国大学论文互联网数据库中获取放射科住院医师和影像论文的列表。记录论文的主要特征，并与通过扫描 PubMed 数据库识别的相关出版物相关联。还获得了所有其他与论文无关的法国放射科住院医师的出版物，并对其进行了描述和比较。
2009 年和 2010 年，法国放射科住院医师撰写的 224 篇医学论文中有 79 篇（35.3%）转化为在 Medline 索引期刊上发表的文章。在这些文章中，住院医师是第一作者的比例为 69%（60/87）。与论文发表相关的因素包括前瞻性设计（P=0.01）和作为与论文无关的原始研究的第一作者发表（P=0.01）。71%的住院医师发表了至少一篇其他文章，其中 36.6%是第一作者。
由于发表的论文和其他文章，法国放射科住院医师的学术生产力很高。
