Oral and poster presentations at annual national meetings of the Romanian Society of Gastroenterology and Hepatology (RSGH) provide a forum for education, communication and discussion of new research. However, for the wide-spread dissemination of the new research work, each presentation should be subsequently published as a full-text article in peer-reviewed, indexed journals.
to evaluate the publication rate of full-text articles in peer-reviewed journals after being first presented as abstracts at two consecutive RSGH annual meetings.
A retrospective review of all abstracts presented at the annual meetings in 2013 and 2014 was performed. PubMed and Google Scholar were searched using abstract titles, first author's name and affiliation, and key words from the title to identify whether an abstract resulted in a peer-reviewed publication. Abstracts published in full-text were subsequently assessed for study type, study center, topics, publication year, journals and their impact factors (IFs). We chose the 2013 and 2014 meetings to ensure a minimum two-year follow-up period since the last meeting for the publication as full-length articles.
A total of 562 abstracts were presented (275 in 2013, 287 in 2014). There were 150 oral presentations (93 in 2013, 57 in 2014) and 412 poster presentations (182 in 2013, 230 in 2014). Fifty seven of them (10.1%) were published as full-text articles, among them 26 (17.3%) after oral presentations and 31 (7.5%) after poster presentations (P=0.001). University affiliation and original research work were most likely to be published. The average IFs of the journals which published the articles were 2.42 in 2013 and 1.87 in 2014.
The publication rate for the annual RSGH meetings abstracts as full-text articles in peer-reviewed journals is very low compared to the analyses performed in gastroenterology or other medical specialities from other countries. It is not clear yet what are the factors responsible for the failure of publication.
在罗马尼亚胃肠病学和肝病学会(RSGH)年度全国会议上进行口头和海报展示,为新研究的教育、交流和讨论提供了一个平台。然而,为了广泛传播新的研究工作,每次展示随后都应作为全文发表在同行评审的索引期刊上。
评估在RSGH连续两届年度会议上首次以摘要形式展示后,在同行评审期刊上发表全文的比例。
对2013年和2014年年度会议上展示的所有摘要进行回顾性分析。使用摘要标题、第一作者姓名和单位以及标题中的关键词在PubMed和谷歌学术上进行搜索,以确定摘要是否产生了同行评审的出版物。随后对全文发表的摘要进行研究类型、研究中心、主题、发表年份、期刊及其影响因子(IFs)的评估。我们选择2013年和2014年的会议,以确保自上次会议以来至少有两年的随访期用于全文发表。
共展示了562篇摘要(2013年275篇,2014年287篇)。其中有150篇口头报告(2013年93篇,2014年57篇)和412篇海报展示(2013年182篇,2014年230篇)。其中57篇(10.1%)作为全文发表,其中26篇(17.3%)在口头报告后发表,31篇(7.5%)在海报展示后发表(P=0.001)。大学附属机构和原创研究工作最有可能发表。发表文章的期刊在2013年的平均IFs为2.42,2014年为1.87。
与其他国家对胃肠病学或其他医学专业进行的分析相比,RSGH年度会议摘要在同行评审期刊上作为全文发表的比例非常低。目前尚不清楚导致发表失败的因素是什么。
