The aim of this study was to investigate the scientific publication performance of the abstracts presented at the annual Turkish National Cardiology Congress (TNCC) between 2011 and 2015 and to analyze the variables associated with publication.
The accepted abstracts of five congresses (2011-2015) were screened using the title and names of all authors in English via PubMed and Google Scholar databases. The parameters recorded included presentation type, publication rate, time to publication, affiliated institution, journal name and average impact factor, and average citation number per year for each publication.
A total of 2897 abstracts (966 oral presentations and 1931 poster presentations) were accepted in five meetings and 23.4% (n=680) of these were published in national or international peer-reviewed journals. Of the published articles, 32.6% (n=222) were oral presentations and 67.4% (n=458) were poster presentations. The mean time to publication of oral and poster presentations were similar [9 (0-58) vs. 8 (0-62) months, p = 0.150]. According to the type of institution, university hospitals had the highest ratio of publication (58.6%) (p<0.001). All publications were published in 148 journals from 37 different countries. The average citation number of publications was significantly higher than the average impact factor of the journals [1.4 (0-30.1) vs. 1.29 (0.11-19.8), p<0.001].
Compared with other national-based literature in other medical fields, the overall publication rate was found to be similar while the time to publication was shorter. The significant difference between citation number and impact factor may be interpreted as positive indicator in terms of high level scientific value for cardiology publications presented in the TNCC.
本研究旨在调查2011年至2015年间在土耳其全国心脏病学年度大会（TNCC）上发表的摘要的科学发表情况，并分析与发表相关的变量。
通过PubMed和谷歌学术数据库，使用英文标题和所有作者姓名对五届大会（2011 - 2015年）的录用摘要进行筛选。记录的参数包括报告类型、发表率、发表时间、所属机构、期刊名称、平均影响因子以及每篇发表文章的年均被引次数。
五届会议共录用2897篇摘要（966篇口头报告和1931篇海报展示），其中23.4%（n = 680）在国内或国际同行评审期刊上发表。在已发表的文章中，32.6%（n = 222）为口头报告，67.4%（n = 458）为海报展示。口头报告和海报展示的平均发表时间相似[9（0 - 58）个月对8（0 - 62）个月，p = 0.150]。根据机构类型，大学医院的发表比例最高（58.6%）（p < 0.001）。所有发表文章发表在来自37个不同国家的148种期刊上。发表文章的平均被引次数显著高于期刊的平均影响因子[1.4（0 - 30.1）对1.29（0.11 - 19.8），p < 0.001]。
与其他医学领域的其他国内文献相比，总体发表率相似，但发表时间更短。被引次数和影响因子之间的显著差异在TNCC上发表的心脏病学出版物的高水平科学价值方面可被视为积极指标。
