“…In our study, the median publication time of abstracts presented at the TNCC was comparable with that in the other international cardiology meetings, whereas it was shorter than that in the other national congresses ( 29 , 30 ). When the submission and evaluation processes of peer-reviewed journals were taken into consideration, this result may be interpreted as the investigators have promptly sent their studies after the TNCC.…”

Objective:The aim of this study was to investigate the scientific publication performance of the abstracts presented at the annual Turkish National Cardiology Congress (TNCC) between 2011 and 2015 and to analyze the variables associated with publication.Methods:The accepted abstracts of five congresses (2011-2015) were screened using the title and names of all authors in English via PubMed and Google Scholar databases. The parameters recorded included presentation type, publication rate, time to publication, affiliated institution, journal name and average impact factor, and average citation number per year for each publication.Results:A total of 2897 abstracts (966 oral presentations and 1931 poster presentations) were accepted in five meetings and 23.4% (n=680) of these were published in national or international peer-reviewed journals. Of the published articles, 32.6% (n=222) were oral presentations and 67.4% (n=458) were poster presentations. The mean time to publication of oral and poster presentations were similar [9 (0-58) vs. 8 (0-62) months, p = 0.150]. According to the type of institution, university hospitals had the highest ratio of publication (58.6%) (p<0.001). All publications were published in 148 journals from 37 different countries. The average citation number of publications was significantly higher than the average impact factor of the journals [1.4 (0-30.1) vs. 1.29 (0.11-19.8), p<0.001].Conclusion:Compared with other national-based literature in other medical fields, the overall publication rate was found to be similar while the time to publication was shorter. The significant difference between citation number and impact factor may be interpreted as positive indicator in terms of high level scientific value for cardiology publications presented in the TNCC.

“…On the other hand, there is a very limited number of studies evaluating the rate of conversion for national congress reports to publication; these studies have evaluated congresses held in the fields of Turkish national congresses of urology, general surgery, otorhinolaryngology, and plastic surgery, and have reported a rate ranging from 5.7% to 21.9% for the publication of reports in peer-reviewed international journals 41, 42, 43, 44. For the 20th National Turkish Orthopedics and Traumatology Congress held in 2007, 39 which was quite close to the rate reported by TUSYAD (29.2%).…”

ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to evaluate the conversion rate of oral and poster presentations into publications presented at four consecutive congresses held by the Turkish Society of Sports Injuries and Arthroscopy between 2008 and 2014 and to determine the publication pattern.MethodsThe manuscripts published in peer-reviewed journals were identified using the Web of Knowledge, PubMed, Google Scholar databases, ULAKBIM, and Endnote citation management software (X7.7.1). The identified manuscripts were classified according to the level of evidence, number of citations, subject, publication journals, time period until publication, and citation index of the journal.ResultsBetween 2008 and 2014, a total of 561 presentations were made, comprising 278 posters and 283 oral presentations. Of these presentations, 164 (29.2%) were published as a manuscript. Of the published articles, 114 were originated from oral presentations (40.2% of total) and 50 from poster presentations (18% of total). A significantly higher number of oral presentations compared to poster presentations were converted into publications (p < 0.05). However, no significant difference was determined between the conversion rates of oral and poster presentations in 2014. The mean time from presentation at the congress to publication was 15.4 months (range: −144 months to +62 months). The mean impact factor of the journals at the time of publication increased for each congress. Evidence level of presented articles was significantly higher in the 2014 congress when compared to previous congresses.ConclusionThe rate of conversion into publication was higher for oral presentations, which can be attributed to the fact that studies with a higher level of evidence are more likely to have been presented as oral presentations. Based on these study results, authors of oral presentations at congresses should be encouraged to increase the rate of conversion into publication.

“…This study, for the first time, investigated the quality of presentations at the 1 st Congress of the Society of Urological Surgery in Turkiye held in 2012. Previous studies have found publication rates of presentations in congresses in different disciplines, such as rheumatology, dermatology, general surgery, radiology, pediatric psychiatry, orthopedics, plastic surgery and urology, in Turkiye to be ranged between 5.7% and 29.5% (8,9,10,11,12,13,14). In this study, we identified that 28.3% of the presentations at the 1 st Congress of the Society of Urological Surgery in Turkiye were later published in PubMed-indexed journals.…”

What's known on the subject? and What does the study add? Öz Amaç: Poster ve sözlü sunumlarının yayın haline dönüşmeleri, yeni bilgi oluşmasını sağlayarak literatüre de katkı sağlamaktadır. Biz bu çalışmamızda Ürolojik Cerrahi Derneği'nin 2012 yılında yaptığı ilk kongresindeki poster ve sözlü sunumların yayınlaşma oranlarına bakarak ülkemizdeki durumu incelemek istedik. Gereç ve Yöntem: Ürolojik Cerrahi Derneği'nin 3-7 Ekim 2012 tarihinde gerçekleştirmiş olduğu 1. Ulusal Ürolojik Cerrahi Kongresi'nin kongre kitapçığı incelendi. Üroonkoloji, androloji, çocuk ürolojisi, endorüroloji, transplantasyon, kontinans ve diğer başlıkları altında yapılmış olan 176 poster sunumu ve 103 sözlü sunumun yayına dönüşme durumu internet üzerinden PubMed ve Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-E) veri tabanları taranarak araştırıldı. Objective: Publications of congress presentations (oral/poster) contribute to the literature by creating new information. In this study, we examined the publication rate of poster and oral presentations at the 1 st Congress of the Society of Urological Surgery in Turkiye held in 2012. Materials and Methods: We investigated the congress booklet belonging to the 1 st Congress of the Society of Urological Surgery in Turkiye held in 3-7 October 2012. We investigated the publication rates of 176 poster and 103 oral presentations under the headings of uro-oncology, andrology, pediatric urology, endourology, transplantation, continence and other by searching the PubMed and Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-E) databases. Results: Of the 176 poster and 103 oral presentations, 79 (28.3%) were subsequently published. The publication rate in journals included in the SCI-E was 24.3%. While 33% of oral presentations were published, 25.5% of poster presentations became publications and this difference was not found to be statistically significant (p=0.48). The mean duration from presentation to publication was 21.1 months. Conclusion: The publication rate of presentations at the 1 st Congress of the Society of Urological Surgery in Turkiye was higher than in most national congresses in different disciplines, but lower than many international congresses in the field of urology. Future studies investigating congress data from several consecutive years will provide clearer results.
