Academic achievement is an integral part of the promotion process; however, there are no standardized metrics for faculty or leadership to reference in assessing this potential for promotion. The aim of this study was to identify metrics that correlate with academic rank in hepatopancreaticobiliary (HPB) surgeons.
Faculty was identified from 17 fellowship council accredited HPB surgery fellowships in the United States and Canada. The number of publications, citations, -index values, and National Institutes of Health (NIH) funding for each faculty member was captured.
Of 111 surgeons identified, there were 31 (27%) assistant, 39 (35%) associate, and 41 (36%) full professors. On univariate analysis, years in practice, -index, and a history of NIH funding were significantly associated with a surgeon's academic rank ( < .05). Years in practice and index remained significant on multivariate analysis ( < .001).
Academic productivity metrics including index and NIH funding are associated with promotion to the next academic rank.
学术成就作为晋升过程的一个组成部分,但目前缺乏教员或领导层可用于评估晋升潜力的标准化指标。本研究旨在确定与肝胆胰外科学者学术职称相关的指标。
在美国和加拿大的 17 个专科医师培训委员会认可的肝胆胰外科学术培训项目中确定了教员。记录每位教员的出版物数量、引用次数、影响因子值和美国国立卫生研究院(NIH)的资助情况。
在确定的 111 名外科医生中,有 31 名(27%)助理教授、39 名(35%)副教授和 41 名(36%)教授。单因素分析显示,从业年限、影响因子和 NIH 资助历史与外科医生的学术职称显著相关(<0.05)。多因素分析显示,从业年限和影响因子仍然具有显著意义(<0.001)。
学术产出指标,包括影响因子和 NIH 资助,与晋升到下一个学术职称相关。
