The annual meetings hosted by the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) present the latest prepublication literature in shoulder and elbow surgery, facilitating early dissemination of novel findings that impact clinical decision-making. Evaluating the publication rate of presented abstracts at ASES conferences becomes crucial in assessing the quality of research showcased, as these presentations often precede the peer-review process.
The ASES conference programs from 2015-2019 were reviewed to identify presented abstracts. For each abstract, the title, author(s), conference year, and meeting type (open vs. closed) were recorded. The names of the author(s) of each abstract were searched in the PubMed and Google Scholar databases to determine if there was an associated published manuscript. For each identified manuscript, the title, author(s), date of publication, publishing journal, impact factor of the publishing journal, level of evidence, and number of citations were recorded.
A total of 316 abstracts were presented as podium lectures at ASES open and closed meetings between 2015 and 2019. Within 3 years of presentation, 240 (75.9%) of the presented abstracts resulted in publication. There was an increase in the proportion of abstracts resulting in publication within 3 years of the presentation from 2015-2019 (R = 0.8733, = .053). Overall, the proportion of presented abstracts that went on to publication in peer-reviewed journals also increased (R = 0.8907, = .043). Manuscripts of abstracts presented at open meetings had a shorter time to publication (8.78 vs. 11.82 months; = .0160) and were cited more often (40.89 vs. 30.11, = .0099) than those presented at closed meetings.
There has been an increase in the publication rate of abstracts presented at ASES annual meetings in the study period. Published manuscripts of abstracts presented at ASES open conferences were published faster, and were cited more often, than closed conferences. ASES conferences allow for the presentation of high-quality prepublication literature in shoulder and elbow surgery.
美国肩肘外科医师学会（ASES）主办的年会展示了肩肘外科领域最新的未发表文献，有助于新发现的早期传播，这些发现会影响临床决策。评估ASES会议上展示的摘要的发表率对于评估所展示研究的质量至关重要，因为这些展示通常先于同行评审过程。
回顾2015 - 2019年ASES会议议程，以确定展示的摘要。对于每篇摘要，记录标题、作者、会议年份和会议类型（开放会议与封闭会议）。在PubMed和谷歌学术数据库中搜索每篇摘要的作者姓名，以确定是否有相关的已发表手稿。对于每篇确定的手稿，记录标题、作者、发表日期、发表期刊、发表期刊的影响因子、证据水平和引用次数。
2015年至2019年期间，共有316篇摘要在ASES开放会议和封闭会议上作为大会发言展示。在展示后的3年内，240篇（75.9%）展示的摘要得以发表。2015 - 2019年，展示后3年内发表的摘要比例有所增加（R = 0.8733，P = 0.053）。总体而言，在同行评审期刊上发表的展示摘要的比例也有所增加（R = 0.8907，P = 0.043）。在开放会议上展示的摘要的手稿发表时间较短（8.78个月对11.82个月；P = 0.0160），并且比在封闭会议上展示的摘要被引用的次数更多（40.89次对30.11次，P = 0.0099）。
在研究期间，ASES年会上展示的摘要的发表率有所提高。在ASES开放会议上展示的摘要的已发表手稿比封闭会议上的发表得更快，且被引用的次数更多。ASES会议允许展示肩肘外科领域高质量的未发表文献。
