Observational study.
To determine the publication rate of podium presentations from the North American Spine Society (NASS) annual meetings from the years 2009 to 2011.
In April 2015, a PubMed search was conducted using titles from the paper presentations as well as the authors. Of the search results that were found, the specific scientific journal in which the article was published was recorded. We analyzed further the top 4 destination journals and trends in publications in these journals over the study period. No study funding was obtained for this research, and there are no potential conflicts of interest or associated biases.
Over the study period, 671 paper presentations were available and 342 were published (51% publication rate). The highest publication rate was from the 2011 annual meeting, with 55.3%, and the lowest year was 2010, with a rate of 46.43%. (32.75%), (19.01%), (7.31%), and (6.73%) were the top 4 destination journals. Over the study period, we found a significant decrease in publication rate in ( = .001) and a significant increase in publication rate in ( = .003). There were no significant difference in publication rate over the study period in ( = .15) or ( = .23).
This is the first study to our knowledge evaluating the publication rate of podium presentations from recent North American Spine Society annual meetings. We found an overall publication rate of 51%.
观察性研究。
确定2009年至2011年北美脊柱协会（NASS）年会讲台报告的发表率。
2015年4月，使用论文报告的标题和作者进行PubMed检索。在检索到的结果中，记录文章发表所在的具体科学期刊。我们进一步分析了排名前4的目标期刊以及研究期间这些期刊的发表趋势。本研究未获得研究资金，不存在潜在利益冲突或相关偏倚。
在研究期间，共有671篇论文报告，其中342篇发表（发表率为51%）。发表率最高的是2011年年会，为55.3%，最低的是2010年，发表率为46.43%。排名前4的目标期刊分别是[具体期刊1]（32.75%）、[具体期刊2]（19.01%）、[具体期刊3]（7.31%）和[具体期刊4]（6.73%）。在研究期间，我们发现[期刊1]的发表率显著下降（P = 0.001），[期刊2]的发表率显著上升（P = 0.003）。[期刊3]和[期刊4]在研究期间的发表率没有显著差异（P = 0.15和P = 0.23）。
据我们所知，这是第一项评估北美脊柱协会近期年会讲台报告发表率的研究。我们发现总体发表率为51%。
