From Abstract to Publication in a Peer-Reviewed Journal: Evaluation of the 63rd Annual Meeting of the German Society of Neurosurgery.
The presentation and academic discussion of the latest scientific research is the central purpose of meetings like the annual meeting of the German Society of Neurosurgery (DGNC). The aim of this study was to investigate the publication rate of all oral and poster abstracts of the DGNC meeting 2012 held in Leipzig, Germany, in peer-reviewed journals and to identify factors that are associated with a higher publication rate. ⋯ Overall, 40.4% of all presented abstracts at the 2012 DGNC were published in a peer-reviewed journal indexed in PubMed, which reflects the high scientific standard of this meeting. Prospective studies and studies presented by authors from universities had a higher chance of being published.
