Abstract

BACKGROUND

The annual meeting program committees for orthopaedic subspecialty societies now receive more abstract submissions while conference durations remain similar. This study estimated the quality of the Pediatric Orthopaedic Society of North America (POSNA) annual meeting by analyzing abstract acceptance and publication characteristics.

METHODS

Abstracts featured in recent POSNA annual meetings (2017 to 2020), whereafter presentations had 3 subsequent years to reach publication were reviewed to determine annual acceptance rates, publication status, country of origin, study type, level of evidence, journal impact factor (JIF), and time to publication. Abstracts published with dissimilar results, altered methodology, or lacking the original first author were excluded.

RESULTS

The abstract acceptance rate during the 4-year study period averaged 32%±3% despite the number of submitted abstracts varying per year. Among 1306 included abstracts, 760 (58.2%) were published in peer-reviewed journals. The vast majority (95%) were published after the annual meeting. The JIF of publications averaged 2.8±2.0 without significant variation between years. Featured abstracts were most commonly retrospective (n=510; 67.1%). Podium presentations were published at a significantly higher rate than posters (63.1% vs. 51.8%, P<0.001), and had a higher average JIF (2.9±2.3 vs. 2.5±1.0, P=0.006). A total of 137 unique journals published abstracts, with The Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics publishing the highest proportion of articles (n=231).

CONCLUSION

Abstracts featured in the most recently applicable POSNA annual meetings boast high rates of subsequent publication in relevant journals. This implies that the POSNA annual meeting offers strong educational value. When compared with posters and e-posters, podium presentations were more often published and appeared in higher impact journals. However, the prevalence of publication among both podium and poster presentations is encouraging for authors looking to substantiate the educational value of their research.

摘要

背景

骨科亚专业学会的年会项目委员会现在收到的摘要投稿更多，而会议时长却保持不变。本研究通过分析摘要录用情况和发表特征，评估了北美小儿骨科学会（POSNA）年会的质量。

方法

回顾了POSNA近期年会（2017年至2020年）中的摘要，这些摘要发表后的3年内有后续发表情况，以确定年录用率、发表状态、来源国、研究类型、证据水平、期刊影响因子（JIF）以及发表时间。排除结果不同、方法改变或缺少原始第一作者的发表摘要。

结果

尽管每年提交的摘要数量有所不同，但在4年研究期间，摘要录用率平均为32%±3%。在纳入的1306篇摘要中，760篇（58.2%）发表在同行评审期刊上。绝大多数（95%）在年会后发表。发表文章的JIF平均为2.8±2.0，各年份间无显著差异。专题摘要最常见的是回顾性研究（n = 510；67.1%）。讲台展示的发表率显著高于海报展示（63.1%对51.8%，P < 0.001），且平均JIF更高（2.9±2.3对2.5±1.0，P = 0.006）。共有137种不同的期刊发表了摘要，其中《小儿骨科学杂志》发表的文章比例最高（n = 231）。
