Publication Rate Of Podium Presentations Research Articles

Publication Rates of Podium Presentations at an Annual Orthopedic Surgery Resident and Fellow Research Symposium.

Introduction Research is an important aspect of residency and fellowship programs across the country. Developing strategies to foster research productivity is worthwhile. An annual research project is one strategy that some programs implement. Methods All resident and fellow (Sports Medicine, Adult Reconstruction, Spine) presentations at an orthopedic surgery department's annual research symposium from June 2016 through June 2021 were identified. Abstract titles, title keywords, and author names were searched in PubMed and Google Scholar to identify the presence of a peer-reviewed publication. Using the total number of research symposium presentations given, the publication rate was calculated for each year, as well as collectively for 2016 to 2021. In addition to publication rate, first author percent, number of citations, Altmetric score, and journal impact factor were recorded. Current PGY-2 through PGY-5 residents completed a survey to assess the perceived value of the annual research symposium. Results Ninety-eight research symposium presentations were reviewed (69 residents, 29 fellows). Forty (58%) resident studies were published and 28 were first-author publications (70%). Thirteen (45%) fellow studies were published and seven were first-author publications (54%). Combining residents and fellows, the overall publication rate was 54% (53/98), and 66% of these (35/53) were first-author publications. There was a wide range of published manuscript journal impact factors, Altmetric scores, and number of citations. All residents surveyed reported finding value in the research symposium. Conclusion The overall publication rate of presentations at an annual orthopedic surgery department research symposium between 2016 and 2021 was 54%, consistent with publication rates reported at National Orthopedic Surgery Society meetings. All residents reported finding value in the annual research symposium.The results of this study support the academic value of implementing a required annual research project and may provide a useful gauge to inform residency and fellowship curricula at other institutions.

Publication Rates of Podium Presentations from the Orthopedic Summit: Fellow Resident and Medical Student Annual Meeting 2019-2021

Purpose To determine the publication rate of presentations presented at the Orthopaedic Summit and Evolving Techniques (OSET) Fellow Resident and Medical Student Annual Meeting 2019-2021 Methods All presentations from the OSET annual meeting between 2019 -2021 were identified from the OSET’s official website and confirmed through review of the OSET Official Programs. The 2019 and 2021 meeting were in person and the 2020 meeting was virtual due to the COVID pandemic. This information was then used to direct a search on PubMed and Google Scholar database to determine if the presentation was associated with a publication since the meeting. Publishing information was entered into the database. Results For 2019-2021 there were a total of 227 presentations with 101 associated publications (45%). The highest rate of publications was 63% of presentations published in 2019, followed by 49% rate of publications in 2020, and 27% rate of publications in 2021. The presentations were published at an average of 8.1 months after presentation. Conclusion Our research demonstrated a 45% publication rate over a 3-year period of presentations presented at the OSET annual meetings. Our results are comparable to other publication rates for podium presentations in other societies (e.g. American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, Annual Meeting of the Pediatric Orthopedic Society of North America, Orthopedic Trauma Association Annual Meeting, American Academy for Surgery of the Hand, Annual Meetings of the North American Spine Society, and American Orthopedic Society for Sports Medicine Annual Meeting). This validates the quality of research presented in podium presentations format at the OSET Annual Meeting.

Publication Rates of Podium Presentations at Society of Gynecologic Oncology (SGO) 2017 and 2018 Annual Meeting (LBA 1)

<b>Objectives:</b> The Society of Gynecologic Oncology (SGO) Annual Meeting allows for researchers to share novel projects and demonstrate their importance and validity to conference participants. Podium, or oral, presentations are deemed to be of most significant value during these meetings with results potentially leading to practice changes. The purpose of this study was to determine the publication rate of podium presentations from the 2017 and 2018 SGO Annual Meetings that resulted in published manuscripts in peer-reviewed journals. <b>Methods:</b> All podium presentations were reviewed at the 2017 and 2018 SGO Annual Meetings using the online program. Abstracts were evaluated for publication from Jan 1, 2017 to March 30, 2020 and Jan 1, 2018 to June 30, 2021, respectively, to allow for a 3-year period for publication and include abstracts that were published prior to the conference from the 2017 and 2018 Annual Meeting, respectively. Titles and abstract authors were searched via Google, Google Scholar, and PubMed. Articles were considered published if at least one abstract author, more than 50% of the exact title was listed, and if the objective corresponded with the abstract. Publication rate, time to publication from the date of the Annual Meeting, and journal impact factor of the respective published year were collected. Descriptive data analysis was performed. <b>Results:</b> In 2017 and 2018, a total of 60 and 83 oral presentations were reviewed with 37/60 (61.7%) and 47/83 (56.6%) podium presentations published within 3 years from the time of presentation, respectively. The average time to publication was 12.3 months (2017) and 13.6 months (2018). The average Impact Factor across all journals was 7.08 (2017) and 11.76 (2018). 2017 and 2018 presentations with publication in the journal with the highest impact factor was 41.32 (Lancet Oncology) and 70.67 (New England Journal of Medicine), respectively. Of the presentations published, 54.1% (2017) and 38.3% (2018) appeared in Gynecologic Oncology. Of all oncology subtypes, ovarian cancer manuscripts were the most frequently published, followed by endometrial, cervical, then vulvar (Figure 1) from both 2017 and 2018 podium presentations. <b>Conclusions:</b> At the 2017 and 2018 SGO Annual Meeting, approximately 60% of podium presentations were published in a peer-reviewed journal within 3 years. Although slightly more than half of presentations were published, a large majority remained unpublished. Caution must be taken when invoking new practice changes solely based on these podium presentations and additional time for publication must be considered for larger, more advanced clinical trials.Fig. 1

Publication rate of podium presentations from the orthopaedic research society annual meeting.

Annual scientific meetings serve as a forum for dissemination of new research findings. Presentations should be of high scientific quality as they have the potential to impact future research projects and current clinical practice. The publication rate of podium presentations at an annual meeting can be used to assess the quality of the research presented. The purpose of this study was to determine the publication rate of podium presentations at the Orthopaedic Research Society (ORS) annual meeting. All podium presentations from the 2012 to 2014 annual ORS meetings were identified. Abstracts were categorized into an orthopaedic topic. A PubMed search was performed to determine if an abstract reached publication in a peer-reviewed journal. The publication rate was determined for each year. Of the 1063 podium presentations identified, 640 (60.2%) reached publication in a peer-reviewed journal. No significant differences were observed in the publication rate between the orthopaedic topics (p = 0.3414). The majority (75.9%) of published abstracts reached publication within 2 years of presentation and the average time to publication was 17.0 months. Abstracts were published in 151 different journals with an average impact factor of 4.46. Time to publication varied significantly by journal (p = 0.025). Journal of Orthopaedic Research, Journal of Biomechanics, PLoS ONE, Osteoarthritis and Cartilage, and Bone were the most common publication journals. This study provides insight into the quality of podium presentations at the ORS annual meeting. The ORS annual meeting compares favorably to other orthopaedic surgery meetings. © 2018 Orthopaedic Research Society. Published by Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Orthop Res 37:288-292, 2019.

Publication rates of podium presentations at the annual South African Orthopaedic Association Congress from 2010 to 2015

Background: International literature shows a discrepancy between presentations at annual general orthopaedic meetings and subsequent publication. The aim of this study was to determine the publication rate of manuscripts presented as podium presentations at the South African Orthopaedic Congress (SAOC) from 2010 to 2015. Materials and methods: All abstracts accepted as podium presentations at the SAOC from years 2010 to 2015 were identified from the archives of the South African Orthopaedic Society (SAOA). Abstract titles and authors were searched using search engines looking for all published manuscripts. The presentations were cross referenced with publications and the conversion ratio from presentation to publication was compared to international results. Sub-analyses included orthopaedic subspecialty performance and publication rates and the types of research conducted. Record was also made of each publication’s journal impact factor and date of publication. Results: A total of 445 abstracts were accepted for podium presentation by the SAOC from 2010 to 2015. Of these, 70 (15.7%) were published in peer-reviewed journals. The mean time from presentation to publication was 16 months with an average journal impact factor of 1.29. Orthopaedic Trauma (21.67%) and Foot and Ankle Surgery subspecialties (21%) were responsible for the most publications in general. The South African Orthopaedic Journal (44.29%), Strategies in Trauma and Limb Reconstruction (6.7%) and the Injury Journal (6.7%) were the three most common publishing journals. Conclusion: A lower conversion rate from podium presentation at SAOC to publication exists compared to similar published international findings. A poor publication rate was highlighted across all orthopaedic subdisciplines. Half of the publications appeared only in local journals, with just over 8% of presentations reaching international publication. The results suggest there is a need to identify barriers to publication among South African orthopaedic surgeons. Level of evidence: Level 4

Publication of Podium Presentations at the Orthopaedic Trauma Association Annual Meetings: 2008-2012.

To determine journal publication rates of podium presentations from the OTA Annual Meetings between 2008 and 2012. Podium presentations from the 2008 to 2012 OTA annual meeting were compiled from the Annual Meeting archives. During December 2016, and Google Scholar were performed using individual keywords in the abstract title and content. The results were reviewed for matches to the meeting abstracts with regard to the title, authors, and abstract content. Yearly publication rates were calculated, along with time to publication and common journals for publication. The publication rate for the 357 podium abstracts presented at the OTA between 2008 and 2012 was 72.8%. Eighty-one percent of abstracts were from the US institutions. The mean time to publication from podium presentation was 23.4 months, and the most common journals of publication were Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma (45.4%) and The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery (15.3%). The publication rate of the podium presentations at the OTA Annual Meeting from 2008 to 2012 has increased since previous years. Compared with other orthopaedic subspecialty and nonorthopaedic specialty meetings, the OTA publication rate is among the highest in the medical field. OTA annual meetings are an opportunity for early access to high-quality research in the area of orthopaedic trauma.

Study Design:Observational study.Objectives:To determine the publication rate of podium presentations from the North American Spine Society (NASS) annual meetings from the years 2009 to 2011.Methods:In April 2015, a PubMed search was conducted using titles from the paper presentations as well as the authors. Of the search results that were found, the specific scientific journal in which the article was published was recorded. We analyzed further the top 4 destination journals and trends in publications in these journals over the study period. No study funding was obtained for this research, and there are no potential conflicts of interest or associated biases.Results:Over the study period, 671 paper presentations were available and 342 were published (51% publication rate). The highest publication rate was from the 2011 annual meeting, with 55.3%, and the lowest year was 2010, with a rate of 46.43%. Spine (32.75%), The Spine Journal (19.01%), Journal of Neurosurgery Spine (7.31%), and European Spine Journal (6.73%) were the top 4 destination journals. Over the study period, we found a significant decrease in publication rate in Spine (P = .001) and a significant increase in publication rate in The Spine Journal (P = .003). There were no significant difference in publication rate over the study period in Journal of Neurosurgery Spine (P = .15) or European Spine Journal (P = .23).Conclusions:This is the first study to our knowledge evaluating the publication rate of podium presentations from recent North American Spine Society annual meetings. We found an overall publication rate of 51%.

Publication rates of podium presentations at the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons annual open versus closed meetings 2008 to 2012

AimThe purpose of this study was to analyze the publication rate for abstracts presented at podium presentations from the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) annual open and closed meetings from 2008 to 2012.Materials and methodss accepted as podium presentations for the open and closed meetings from 2008 through 2012 were followed. A search was performed using Google Scholar and PubMed for all published manuscripts. This analysis looks at abstracts categorized based on annual meeting (open versus closed) and by meeting year (2008–2012). Data including publication journal, publication date, and level of evidence were recorded. Descriptive statistics, t-tests, and odds ratios were performed with p < 0.05 significance.ResultsA total of 365 abstracts were accepted to the open and closed annual meetings from 2008 to 2012, with 49% and 51% presented in open and closed forums. A total of 222 (61%) were published within 3-years in peer-reviewed journals. No difference existed in 3-year publication rate between open and closed podium presentation meetings (112/178, 63% open; 110/187, 59% closed; p = 0.4229); however, presentations at closed meetings were more likely to be published after 3-years compared to open meetings (2/178, 2% open; 15/187, 12% closed; p = 0.002). Most common journal of publication was the Journal of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery (JSES) (50%).ConclusionsPodium abstracts presented at the open and closed annual meetings have publication rates of 63% and 59% with overall combined publication rates of 61% from 2008 to 2012. The high publication rate and high impact of publications speak to the exemplary educational value of ASES annual meetings.

Publication Rates of Podium Presentation Abstracts at the Arthroscopy Association of North America Annual Meetings 2004-2012

To determine the publication rates of podium presentation abstracts at the Arthroscopy Association of North America (AANA) annual scientific meetings from 2004 to2012. A database of podium presentation abstracts at the annual meetings of the AANA was compiled. Abstract presentations that reached manuscript publication were determined by a PubMed search of the MEDLINE database and Google Scholar. The journal and publication date were then recorded for all identified published abstracts. A total of 658 abstracts were selected for podium presentations at AANA annual meetings from 2004-2012 (range, 53-102 per year). Of these 658 abstracts, 443 (67.3%) went on to eventual publication in peer-reviewed journals. The mean time from the meeting to publication was 20.0months. Most abstracts were published within 3years of the meeting (n= 380, 85.8%), with a significant number of published abstracts reaching publication before the time of the meeting (n= 41, 9.3%). Published abstracts were most frequently published in Arthroscopy (n= 186, 42.0%), The American Journal of Sports Medicine (20.3%), and The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery (6.1%). The overall publication rate of podium presentations at AANA annual meetings (67.3%) was similar to publication rates for other major orthopaedic annual meetings. Most published abstracts (85.8%) were published within 3years, and the mean time to publication was 20.0months. The rates of publication of podium presentations at AANA annual meetings show the impact and importance of these meetings in the advancement of orthopaedic research.

Five-year publication rate of podium presentations at SICOT Annual Conference: an observational study and new objective proposal of conference power.

Introduction: The SICOT Conference Committee continually tries to improve the quality of presentations at their annual international meetings. However to the author’s best knowledge, no previous study has been undertaken to determine abstract quality. This study aimed to determine the five-year publication rate of presentations made at the 2009 SICOT Annual International Conference (AIC), recognise predictors of full-text publication, identify inconsistencies between presentations and publications, and determine presentation-publication delay. Methods: We retrieved all 329 oral presentation abstracts from the 2009 SICOT Conference, recorded fundamental study details and conducted a comprehensive, electronic search of Medline and PubMed to determine publication status. For subsequent publications, we examined for inconsistencies between presentation abstracts and full-text publications, whether there were retrospectively identifiable publication predictors and calculated presentation-publication delay. Results: The five-year publication rate for all presentations was 31.3%, for oral presentations. The average presentation-publication delay was 23.4 months. Observational studies were the most commonly published studies. Publications most commonly resulted from studies related to hip and knee subspecialties. Conclusion: Our study shows that almost one third of all abstracts presented at SICOT led to a full-text publication. This is a positive outcome particularly when made in comparison to similar studies of other reputable international conferences such as European Federation of Orthopaedics and Traumatology (EFORT) and American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS). This study re-enforces SICOT’s reputation as a world leading international conference with a strict peer-review process yielding high-quality presentations.

The Publication Rate of Presentations at Two International Spine Meetings: Scoliosis Research Society and International Meeting of Advanced Spinal Techniques

Study DesignObservational Study. ObjectiveTo evaluate the publication rate of podium presentations from the Scoliosis Research Society (SRS) and the International Meeting of Advanced Spinal Techniques (IMAST) annuals meeting and to compare the publication rate of SRS/IMAST meetings to other orthopedic and spine meetings. Summary of Background DataAlthough various publication rates from orthopedic meetings have been reported, recent publication rates from the SRS and IMAST annual meetings are not known. MethodsPaper presentations and award-nominated papers from the 2009 to 2011 annual SRS and IMAST meetings were identified. Using PubMed, we searched for publications with a title of the paper presentations or containing the same authors. The publication rate of the award-nominated papers were evaluated in the same manner. We also identified the destination journals of the papers. ResultsA total of 764 podium presentations were presented at SRS and IMAST from 2009 to 2011. Of these 764 abstracts, 339 were published in peer-reviewed journals, with an overall publication rate of 44.37%. The publication rates for the two different meetings (SRS and IMAST) were significantly different, 47.83% (SRS) and 41.53% (IMAST), p = .03. Award-nominated abstracts had a publication rate of 63.64% (49/77) significantly different than nonnominated abstracts, 42.4% (290/684); p = .0004. There was a significant difference in publication rates between the SRS award-nominated abstracts (72.97%, 27/37) and the nonnominated abstracts (45.25%; 138/305), p = .0001. There was no difference in publication rates for IMAST award-nominated abstracts 55% (21/40) and nonnominated abstracts (40.1%, 152/379), p = .27. The publication rate was highest for 2010 abstracts (45.78%), followed by 2009 (43.94%), and lowest for 2011 (43.43%). Spine was the most common publication journal for the two meetings. ConclusionIn one of the first studies evaluating the publication rate of podium presentation from the SRS and IMAST annual meetings, we found an overall publication rate of 44.37% (47.83% SRS, 41.53% IMAST) and 63.64% for award-nominated papers.
