“…In human medicine, complete article publication rates range from 11% to 78% after abstract presentation, depending on the particular conference and discipline . Authors cite several reasons for nonpublication, including rejection after peer‐review, lack of time, low likelihood of acceptance, ongoing or incomplete studies, difficulty with co‐workers, or publication in formats other than articles . Major inconsistencies often exist between the original abstract and final article, including changes in sample size, study design, outcome measure, and results .…”

“…Because this is the first study of publication rates for a musculoskeletal radiology conference in the United States, comparison can only be made with international meetings. The rate of publication from the SSR conference is favorable compared with that of the Canadian Association of Radiologists for 2005–2011 (28%) ( Dressler & Leswick, 2015 ), the Korean Radiological Society for 2001–2002 (23.6%) ( Ha et al, 2008 ), and the European Society of Skeletal Radiology for 2008–2009 (45%) ( Parkar, Vanhoenacker & Adriaensen van Roij, 2013 ). Miguel-Dasit et al (2006a) and Miguel-Dasit et al (2006b) analyzed abstracts submitted to the European Congress of Radiology (ECR).…”

BackgroundMaterial presented at conferences is meant to provide exposure to ongoing research that could affect medical decision making based on future outcomes. It is important then to evaluate the rates of publication from conference presentations as a measure of academic quality as such research has undergone peer review and journal acceptance. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the fate of abstracts presented at the Skeletal Society of Radiology Annual Meetings from 2010–2015.Materials and MethodsConference abstracts were searched using Google, Google Scholar, and PubMed (which includes Medline) to locate the corresponding published reports. The data recorded for published studies included date published online, in print, or both; the journal in which it was published; and the 5-year journal impact factor. When an abstract was not confirmed as published, authors were contacted by email to verify its publication status or, if not published, the reason for nonpublication.ResultsA total of 162 abstracts were published out of 320 presented (50.6%) at the SSR conferences from 2010 to 2015 with 59.9% (85/142) of publications occurring within two years of the conference date (not counting abstracts published prior to conference). Mean time to publication was 19 months and is calculated by excluding the 20 (12.3%) abstracts that were published prior to the conference date. The median time to publication is 13 months (25th–75th percentile: 6.25–21.75). The top two journals publishing research studies from this conference were Skeletal Radiology and The American Journal of Roentgenology. These journals accepted 72 of the 162 (44.4%) studies for publication. Of the 14 authors who responded with 17 reasons for not publishing, the most common reasons were lack of time (7–41.2%), results not important enough (4–23.5%), publication not an aim (3–17.6%), and lack of resources (3–17.6%).DiscussionAt least half of the abstracts presented at the annual meeting for the Society of Skeletal Radiology are accepted for publication in a peer-reviewed journal. The majority (59.9%) of these publications were achieved within two years of the conference presentation. The rate at which presentations are published and the journals that accept the abstracts can potentially be used to compare the importance and quality of information at conferences.

“…29 However, this work was collated over 10 years. Given the reported mean time for radiology conference abstract to publication rates is 1.25 to 2 years, 15,19,[24][25][26][27]29,34 and the majority (>75%) of publications occur within 3 years, 16,[19][20]22,29,34 the findings of Adhikari et al may be an overestimation. Most conference abstracts resulting in a publication will occur within 5 years.…”

“…These rates vary from 9% to 51.8% at national or international conferences. [15][16][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28] To date, the only dedicated sonography conference with a documented conference abstract to publication rate is the Society for Academic Emergency Medicine (SAEM) and the American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP) annual meeting (22.8%). 29 To the author's knowledge, this will be the first study investigating the abstract to publication rates of sonography conferences in Australasia.…”

Quality healthcare relies on our practitioners and their health services to provide the optimal standard of care. To support current practice, we need to embed a research culture in all health professions. 1 Undertaking research helps gather the evidence to provide solutions to clinical problems, thus consolidating best practice. The Australian Government has supported this initiative with establishment of research positions in allied health to build and develop a research culture. 1-3 Often underpinned by policy and governance development, 4 healthcare institutions participating in research are more efficient, and have significant impact upon patient outcomes. 5 A requirement of clinical research positions is to establish a research culture and present completed clinical research performed to a wider audience. There is an expectation to demonstrate impact of the research undertaken, 6 and an ethical

Canadian Association of Radiologists Annual Scientific Meetings: How Many Abstracts Go on to Publication?

Abstract: In total, 28% of all the abstracts presented at the CAR conferences between 2005 and 2011 were published. Further exploration into the reasons and barriers for abstracts not being published may be a next step in future research.
