Abstract

Subsequent publication as a complete manuscript is a desirable end-point for studies presented at scientific meetings. Between 2001 and 2005, 191 studies from India were presented at annual congresses of the International Society of Paediatric Oncology. Of these 24 (12.6%) were published with a median time to publication of 20 months. This subsequent publication rate is lower than previous reports of SPR for either paediatric or oncological meetings. A lower proportion of oral presentations and randomised clinical trials (RCTs) could partly explain our findings. Further research is needed to understand barriers to subsequent publication of presented data from India.
