To evaluate gender differences in the authorship of articles published in two major European radiology journals, European Radiology (EurRad) and CardioVascular and Interventional Radiology (CVIR).
A retrospective bibliometric analysis was performed of 2632 papers published in EurRad and CVIR sampled over a period of 14 years (2002-2016). The authors' gender was determined. The analysis was focused on first and last authors. In addition, the characteristics of the articles (type, origin, radiological subspecialty, and country) were noted.
Overall, 23% of first authors and 10% of the last authors were women. The proportion of women significantly increased over time in EurRad from 22% in 2002 to 35% in 2016 for first authors (p > 0.001), and from 13% in 2002 to 18% in 2016 for last authors (p = 0.05). There was no significant increase in the proportion of female authors in CVIR over time. Female authors were more frequently identified in breast imaging (48%), pediatrics, and gynecological imaging (29%). There were more female authors in articles from Spain (34%), the Netherlands (28%), France, Italy, and South Korea (26%). Forty-one percent and 21% of women were first authors with a woman or man as last author, respectively (p < 0.001).
There was a significant increase in female authorship in original diagnostic but not interventional imaging research articles between 2002 and 2016, with a strong influence of the radiological subspecialty. Women were significantly more frequently first authors when the last author was a woman.
• There was a significant increase in female authorship in original diagnostic but not interventional imaging research articles between 2002 and 2016. • There is a strong influence of the radiological subspecialty on the percentage of female authors. • Women are significantly more frequently first authors when the last author is a woman.
评估在两家主要欧洲放射学期刊《欧洲放射学杂志》(EurRad)和《心血管与介入放射学杂志》(CVIR)上发表的文章的作者署名中的性别差异。
对 2002 年至 2016 年期间在 EurRad 和 CVIR 上发表的 2632 篇论文进行了回顾性文献计量分析。确定了作者的性别。分析主要集中在第一作者和最后作者。此外,还记录了文章的特征(类型、来源、放射学亚专业和国家)。
总体而言,第一作者中有 23%为女性,最后作者中有 10%为女性。在 EurRad 中,女性作者的比例随着时间的推移显著增加,第一作者从 2002 年的 22%增加到 2016 年的 35%(p>0.001),最后作者从 2002 年的 13%增加到 2016 年的 18%(p=0.05)。在 CVIR 中,女性作者的比例随时间的推移没有显著增加。在乳腺成像、儿科和妇科成像方面,女性作者更为常见(48%)。在来自西班牙(34%)、荷兰(28%)、法国、意大利和韩国(26%)的文章中,女性作者更多。当最后一位作者为女性时,分别有 41%和 21%的女性为第一作者(p<0.001)。
2002 年至 2016 年间,女性在原始诊断而不是介入成像研究文章中的作者署名比例显著增加,这受到放射学亚专业的强烈影响。当最后一位作者为女性时,女性作为第一作者的比例显著更高。
2002 年至 2016 年间,女性在原始诊断而非介入成像研究文章中的作者署名比例显著增加。
放射学亚专业对女性作者的比例有很大影响。
当最后一位作者为女性时,女性作为第一作者的比例显著更高。
