“…Finally, communication with the authors of the studies deemed as unpublished in order to ascertain publication status of the abstract would have been ideal. Nevertheless, given the poor response rates described by follow-up surveys (Chand et al, 2008), such an approach had not been not implemented.…”

SUMMaRYINTRODUCTION: Empirical evidence has indicated that only a subsample of studies conducted reach fulltext publication and this phenomenon has become known as publication bias. a form of publication bias is the selectively delayed full publication of conference abstracts. The objective of this article was to examine the publication status of oral abstracts and poster-presentation abstracts, included in the scientific program of the 82nd and 83rd European Orthodontic Society (EOS) congresses, held in 2006 and 2007, and to identify factors associated with full-length publication.METHODS: a systematic search of PubMed and Google Scholar databases was performed in april 2013 using author names and keywords from the abstract title to locate abstract and full-article publications. Information regarding mode of presentation, type of affiliation, geographical origin, statistical results, and publication details were collected and analyzed using univariable and multivariable logistic regression.RESULTS: approximately 51 per cent of the EOS 2006 and 55 per cent of the EOS 2007 abstracts appeared in print more than 5 years post congress. a mean period of 1.32 years elapsed between conference and publication date. Mode of presentation (oral or poster), use of statistical analysis, and research subject area were significant predictors for publication success.LIMITaTIONS: Inherent discrepancies of abstract reporting, mainly related to presentation of preliminary results and incomplete description of methods, may be considered in analogous studies.CONCLUSIONS: On average 52.2 per cent of the abstracts presented at the two EOS conferences reached full publication. abstracts presented orally, including statistical analysis, were more likely to get published.

“…Across specialties, a wide range of publication rates, from 30% to as high as 59% have been reported. 1–4 However, the rate of conversion of SMFM abstract presentations into full publication has not been previously investigated and is uncertain. We sought to evaluate the rate of conversion of SMFM Annual Meeting abstract presentations to full manuscript publication over time, and to examine factors associated with an increased likelihood of publication.…”

Objective To evaluate the rate of conversion of Society for Maternal Fetal Medicine (SMFM) Annual Meeting abstract presentations to full manuscript publications over time. Methods Full manuscript publications corresponding to all SMFM oral abstracts 2003–2010 inclusive, and SMFM poster abstracts in 2003, 2005, 2007, and 2009 were manually searched in PubMed. An abstract was considered to ‘match’ a full publication if the abstract and publication titles as well as main methods and results were similar and the abstract first author was a publication author. In cases of uncertainty, the abstract-publication match was reviewed by a second physician researcher. Time to publication, publication rates over time, and publication rates among US vs. non-US authors were examined. PMID numbers were also collected to determine if >1 abstract contributed to a manuscript. Data were analyzed using Wilcoxon rank-sum, ANOVA, t-test, and logistic regression. Results 3,281 abstracts presented at SMFM over the study period, including 629 orals (63 main plenary, 64 fellows plenary, 502 concurrent), were reviewed. 1,780/3,281 (54.3%) were published, generating 1,582 unique publications. Oral abstracts had a consistently higher rate of conversion to publications vs. posters (77.1% vs. 48.8%, p<0.001). The median time to publication was 19 (IQR 9–36) months, and was significantly shorter for orals vs. posters (11 vs. 21 months, p<0.001). Over the study period, rates of publication of orals remained constant, but rates of publication of posters were lower in 2007 and 2009 compared to 2003 and 2005. Publications related to SMFM abstracts were published in 194 different journals, most commonly AJOG (39.8%), Obstet Gynecol (9.7%), and J Matern Fetal Neonatal Med (6.5%). Publication rates were higher if the abstract’s first author was affiliated with a non-US institution (64.8% vs. 51.1%, p<0.001) and if the abstract received an award (82.7% vs. 53.3%, p<0.001). In regression models, oral presentation at SMFM, first author affiliation with a non-US institution, submission for AJOG SMFM special issue, and year of abstract presentation at SMFM were associated with full manuscript publication. Conclusions Between 2003 and 2010, full manuscript publication rates of SMFM abstracts were high and consistent, and time to publication decreased/improved across the study period for oral presentations.

“…Of the total of 2,172 abstract presentations, 30% were subsequently published in peer-reviewed journals. 4 In another similar study, authors analyzed publication rates of oral presentations at 4 hip-surgery related meetings over a 4-year period. The overall mean publication rate across meetings was 23.4%; there were no significant differences between the meetings' publication rates.…”
