BACKGROUND
The reference list is an important part of a scientific article. To be useful it must be accurate.
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of references in the dermatologic literature.
METHODS
We randomly selected 240 references (60 per journal) from the Archives of Dermatology, the British Journal of Dermatology, this Journal, and the Journal of Investigative Dermatology and checked them against the original articles.
RESULTS
The overall rate of citation error (the information identifying the source) was 41%, and the quotation error (inconsistency between the statement referenced and the original source) was 35%. Only 36% of references were free of error.
CONCLUSION
This study shows that the rate of citation and quotation errors is unacceptably high in the dermatologic literature, which significantly diminishes the value of the reference list.
背景
参考文献列表是科学文章的重要组成部分。要使其有用，必须准确无误。
目的
本研究旨在评估皮肤科文献中参考文献的准确性。
方法
我们从《皮肤病学文献》《英国皮肤病学杂志》《本杂志》和《皮肤病学研究杂志》中随机选取240条参考文献（每种期刊60条），并与原文进行核对。
结果
引用错误（识别来源的信息）的总体发生率为41%，引用错误（所引用陈述与原始来源之间的不一致）为35%。只有36%的参考文献没有错误。
结论
本研究表明，皮肤科文献中引用和引用错误的发生率高得令人无法接受，这显著降低了参考文献列表的价值。
