ACR：在ACR/ARHP年会上发布的口头摘要较壁报形式更易发表

美国风湿病学会（ACR）和美国风湿病卫生专业人员协会（ARHP）年会是风湿界新观点早期发布的重要论坛。然而，不像发表的研究存在同行评议机制，年会摘要的审阅者仅根据研究工作的摘要进行选择性发布。以前从未对ACR/ARHP年会的系统影响和发表情况进行分析，故来自美国洛杉矶加利福尼亚大学大卫格芬医学院的GIL AMARILYO博士等人对在ACR/ARHP年会上发布的摘要的发表趋势和结果进行了一项特征性的相关性分析研究，结果发布在2013年4月的《关节炎治疗与研究》（Arthritis Care & Research）上。研究者发现，口头较壁报形式发布的摘要更易发表。
研究者获取了2006年在ACR/ARHP年会上以口头或壁报形式发布的摘要。应用一种明确的搜索算法，对每一篇接收的摘要进行手工PubMed搜索，再用常用的计算机搜索重复一次。分析发表期刊名称、影响因子及发表时间等。
共有2,149篇摘要纳入研究，总的发表率为59.1%。从摘要发布到文章发表时间的均值+标准差（mean+SD）为18.2+15.2个月，影响因子为5.21+4.20。总的来说，口头汇报形式的研究明显比壁报形式易于发表（P < 0.0001）。基础研究发表所需的平均时间明显较临床研究短（P < 0.0001）。已发表的研究中，基础研究的期刊影响因子明显比临床研究要高（P < 0.0001）。
研究结果表明，2006年年会上发布的摘要的发表率为60%，显示了较高水平的科研生产力。

Publication Outcomes of Abstracts Presented at an American College of Rheumatology/Association of Rheumatology Health Professionals Annual Scientific Meeting
Objective
The American College of Rheumatology (ACR) and the Association of Rheumatology Health Professionals (ARHP) Annual Scientific Meeting is an important forum for early dissemination of novel ideas. However, unlike published studies in peer-reviewed journals, reviewers select abstracts based solely on a general summary of the research. Analyses of the scientific impact and the publication record of the ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting have not been previously described. This study characterizes publication trends and outcomes associated with abstracts presented at the ACR/ARHP Annual Scientific Meeting.
Methods
We identified all abstracts accepted for oral or poster presentation at the 2006 ACR/ARHP Annual Scientific Meeting. Using a defined search algorithm, we conducted a manual PubMed search for each accepted abstract, which was repeated by a custom computerized search, and analyzed the resulting journal title, impact factor, and time to publication.
Results
A total of 2,149 abstracts were analyzed. The overall publication ratio was 59.1%. The mean ± SD time from abstract presentation to publication was 18.2 ± 15.2 months with a mean ± SD impact factor of 5.61 ± 4.20. Overall, studies presented in oral format were significantly more likely to be published than poster presentations (P < 0.0001). The average time to publication was significantly shorter for basic science studies than clinical research studies (P < 0.0001). The average journal impact factor of published studies presented in oral format was significantly higher than those presented as posters (P < 0.0001).
Conclusion
These results reflect high research productivity with a publication ratio of approximately 60% for abstracts presented at the 2006 Annual Scientific Meeting.
