Kongre bildirilerinin kaderi nedir? Ulusal Göğüs Cerrahisi Kongresi bildirilerinin uluslararası yayına dönüşme oranları

Amaç: Bu çalışmada, Ulusal Göğüs Cerrahisi Kongresi’nde sunulan bildirilerin takip eden dört yıl içinde bilimsel dergilerde yayına dönüştürülme oranları belirlendi ve Türkiye’de yayımlanan bu bildiri oranları ile ilişkili değişkenler incelendi. Çalışma planı: PubMed veri tabanı kullanılarak, 2011 yılında VI. Ulusal Göğüs Cerrahisi Kongresi’nde sunulan ve uluslararası hakemli dergilerde ve Türk Kalp Damar Cerrahisi Derneği ve Türk Göğüs Cerrahisi Derneği’nin resmi yayını Türk Göğüs Kalp Damar Cerrahisi Dergisi’nde yayımlanan yayınlar tespit edildi. Bildirinin türü, konu başlığı, birinci yazarın adı ve bağlı olduğu kurum, yayın süresi ve dergi adı geriye dönük olarak incelendi. Bulgular: Toplam 312 bildiriden 35’nin (%11.2) uluslararası hakemli dergilerde yayımlandığı bildirildi. Yirmi üç sözlü sunumun beşi (%21.7), 61 tartışmalı posterin 10’u (%16.3) ve 228 poster bildirisinin 20’si (%8.7) yayına dönüştürüldüğü görüldü. Sözel bildiriler, poster bildirilerine kıyasla daha fazla yayına dönüştürülmüştü; ancak istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark yoktu (p=0.163). Kurum tipine göre en yüksek yayına dönüştürme oranı, üniversitelerden idi (%64.4); ancak üniversiteler, eğitim araştırma hastaneleri ve çok merkezli çalışmalar arasında kurum tipi açısından anlamlı bir fark yok idi (p=0.581). Poster bildirilerin yayına dönüştürülme süresi, sözel bildirilere kıyasla, anlamlı düzeyde daha kısa idi (p=0.005). Sonuç: Çalışma sonuçlarımız, kongre bildirilerinin hakemli dergilerde yayımlanma oranının %10 civarında olduğunu ve sözel bildirilerde ve üniversite kliniklerinde yapılan çalışmalarında bu oranın daha yüksek olduğunu göstermektedir.

What fate befalls the congress proceedings? Conversion rates of National Thoracic Surgery Congress proceedings into international publications

Background: The aim of this study was to determine the journal publication rate of the papers presented at the National Thoracic Surgery Congress in the subsequent four years and to examine the variables related to these rates for the published papers in Turkey.Methods: The papers which were presented at the 6th National Thoracic Surgery Congress in 2011 and published in the international peer-reviewed journals and the Turkish Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, the official publication of the Turkish Society of Cardiovascular Surgery and the Turkish Society of Thoracic Surgery, were identified using the PubMed database. The type of the paper, title, name of the first author and affiliated institution, duration for publication, and journal name were retrospectively analyzed.Results: Of a total of 312 reports, 35 (11.2%) were reported to be published in the international journals. Five of 23 oral presentations (21.7%), 10 of 61 poster discussions (16.3%), and 20 of 228 poster presentations (8.7%) were were found to be converted into publications. Oral presentations were more frequently converted to publications than poster presentations; however, the difference was not statistically significant (p=0.163). For the affiliation type, the highest conversion rate of publications was from universities (64.4%); however, the affiliation type was not significant between universities, training and research hospitals, and multi-center studies (p=0.581). The time to conversion into a publication was significantly shorter in poster presentations, compared to oral presentations (p=0.005).Conclusion: Our study results show that publishing rate of the congress presentations in peer-reviewed journals is about 10% and the rate is higher in oral presentations and studies conducted at university clinics.
