PURPOSE/OBJECTIVES: The purpose of our study was to identify trends and compare keywords from titles and methods among articles accepted and rejected for publication in the Journal of Dental Education (JDE).
The titles and abstracts of JDE articles submitted between 2010 and 2020 were extracted. We studied the frequencies of keywords in the title and abstracts and used simple descriptive data to present the information. Additionally, keywords from the methods section from JDE articles reviewed between 2015 and 2020 were analyzed by acceptance versus rejection. University of Michigan Medical School's committee on human subject studies provided an exemption (HUM00196884).
Articles with the terms "knowledge," "skills," and "attitudes" appear, separately or together, in the titles of submissions to JDE 510 times during the study period-190 in accepted articles and 320 in rejected articles (an acceptance rate of 37.3%). The term "clinical" is in the title of 337 articles submitted to JDE-195 accepted and 142 rejected (an acceptance rate of 57.9%). However, the term "pre-clinical" is associated with only 56 articles in the last 10 years-36 accepts and 20 rejects (64.3%). Studies with cross-sectional study design were accepted at a rate of 72.0% and manuscripts with cohort study designs were accepted at 53.3%. Systematic reviews were accepted at 44.4%, surveys were accepted at 36.7%, meta analyses were accepted at 28%. Questionnaires were accepted at 14%.
Higher quality study designs were more likely to be accepted for publication. Studies including a randomizing process and studies that were longitudinal in nature were more likely to be accepted for publication.
目的/目标：我们研究的目的是确定在《牙科学杂志》（JDE）上发表的被接受和拒绝的文章的标题和方法部分的趋势，并比较关键词。
提取了 2010 年至 2020 年期间提交的 JDE 文章的标题和摘要。我们研究了标题和摘要中关键词的频率，并使用简单的描述性数据来呈现信息。此外，还分析了 2015 年至 2020 年期间审查的 JDE 文章方法部分的关键词，根据接受与拒绝进行分析。密歇根大学医学院人类研究委员会提供豁免（HUM00196884）。
在研究期间，有“知识”，“技能”和“态度”等术语的文章，分别或一起出现在提交给 JDE 的文章标题中，共 510 次-190 次在被接受的文章中，320 次在被拒绝的文章中（接受率为 37.3%）。“临床”一词出现在提交给 JDE 的 337 篇文章的标题中-195 篇被接受，142 篇被拒绝（接受率为 57.9%）。然而，在过去 10 年中，只有 56 篇文章与“临床前”相关-36 篇接受，20 篇拒绝（接受率为 64.3%）。横断面研究设计的研究接受率为 72.0%，队列研究设计的手稿接受率为 53.3%。系统评价的接受率为 44.4%，调查的接受率为 36.7%，meta 分析的接受率为 28%。问卷的接受率为 14%。
更高质量的研究设计更有可能被接受发表。包括随机过程的研究和具有纵向性质的研究更有可能被接受发表。
