“…the potential for misinterpretation of incomplete pre-publication data [3,7]. Since the introduction of these formalized fast-track processes, the practice has become increasingly routine [5][6][7][8]10]. But there has been minimal research on the impact of fast-tracking publication to coincide with conference presentations.…”

“…At that time, there was a general recognition that the rapid dissemination of practice-changing research with public health importance should be prioritized [1,3,4]. More than twenty years later, fast-tracking a publication to be coordinated with a conference presentation has seemingly become routine [5][6][7]. The practice warrants examination-how often it occurs, the types of studies that pursue this approach, and its potential impact on information dissemination.…”

Fast-tracking publication of original research to coincide with a conference presentation (“coordinated publication”) is a mechanism of rapidly disseminating new data. How often this occurs, whether its frequency is changing, and the impact of this approach on information dissemination, is unknown. Our objective was to describe the characteristics of coordinated publications, how the practice has changed over time, and evaluate its potential impact on dissemination of study results. We conducted a cross-sectional study of randomized controlled trials published in NEJM, Lancet, and JAMA between January 1, 2015, and December 31, 2019. Among the 1533 included randomized controlled trials, 502 (33%) had coordinated publications. Coordinated publications increased from 30% [n = 94] in 2015 to 37% [n = 136] in 2019. Coordinated publications were more likely to be unblinded (61% [n = 305] vs. 52% [n = 532]) and more likely to be funded by industry (50% [n = 249] vs. 30% [n = 311]). The strongest predictor of a coordinated publication was cardiovascular disease subspecialty (OR = 3.96, 95% CI [2.95, 5.36]). The median number of citations (188 vs. 98) and the median Altmetric score (318 vs. 182) were higher for coordinated publications than non-coordinated publications. These differences persisted in a multivariable regression model. Coordinated publication is increasingly common. While coordinated publications may generate greater attention, they were observed to be more likely to be unblinded and more likely to be funded by industry, raising questions about the value and intentions of such promotion.

Objetivo: Análisis bibliométrico de la producción científica sobre los sistemas de medicación hospitalariaen bases de datos internacionales.Método: Estudio descriptivo transversal. Los datos se obtuvieron de las bases de datos MEDLINE (Pub-Med), SCOPUS, COCHRANE LIBRARY y LILACS hasta la fecha actual (2016). El término utilizado enla búsqueda fue “Medication System Hospital”. Se analizaron los principales indicadores bibliométricos,como Descriptores MeSH.Se segmentó la búsqueda por épocas (primera y segunda época, desde el año 1966 hasta 1998 incluido,primera época y desde 1999 a 2016 incluido, segunda época).Resultado: Se obtuvieron 881 referencias recuperadas en 388 revistas. El tipo documental de mayorfrecuencia fue el artículo original. La edad media de los documentos analizados fue de 21,16 años. La distribución geográfica, fue primero estadounidense (EEUU): con 263 trabajos. Las publicaciones con ≥10 trabajos fueron 8. Hubo diferencias significativas entre los descriptores analizados por épocas.Conclusiones: Los estudios sobre los sistemas de medicación hospitalaria son un área temática en decrecimiento, con una gran fragmentación y poco uniforme, sin grandes grupos de referencia ni una basesólida desde la que se puedan continuar estudios posteriores. El inglés es el idioma mayoritario. Los descriptores utilizados son acordes a la temática de estudio.

“…From the launch of the World Wide Web, there has been concern about the proliferation of poorquality science, readily available without the filter provided by journals. For example, in 2016, the New England Journal of Medicine published an editorial stating "On the Internet, speed and simplicity often displace depth and quality, especially on complex subjects" [14]. These concerns led to reluctance in the life sciences and biomedical area to adopt preprints, worried about the potential for dubious findings being made available to the public in a way that made them appear credible.…”

This article presents the growth and development of preprints to help authors, editors, and publishers understand and adopt appropriate strategies for incorporating preprints within their scholarly communication strategies. The article considers: preprint history and evolution, integration of preprints and journals, and the benefits and disadvantages, and challenges that preprints offer. The article discusses the two largest and most established preprint servers, arXiv.org (established in 1991) and SSRN (1994), the OSF (Open Science Foundation) initiative that supported preprint growth (2010), bioRxiv (2013), and medRxiv (2019). It then discusses six different levels of acceptance of preprints within journals: uneasy relationship, acceptance of preprint articles, encouraging authors to preprint their articles, active participation with preprints, submerger by reviewing preprints, and finally merger and overlay models. It is notable that most journals now accept submissions that have been posted as preprints. The benefits of preprints include fast circulation, priority publication, increased visibility, community feedback, and contribution to open science. Disadvantages include information overload, inadequate quality assurance, citation dilution, information manipulation and inflation of results. As preprints become mainstream it is likely that they will benefit authors but disadvantage publishers and journals. Authors are encouraged to preprint their own articles but to be cautious about using preprints as the basis for their own research. Editors are encouraged to develop preprint policies and be aware that double-blind review is not possible with preprinting of articles and that allowing citations to preprints is to be encouraged. In conclusion, journal-related stakeholders should consider preprints as an unavoidable development, taking into consideration both the benefits and disadvantages.
