方法和结果我们得出了一个“发表率”来衡量对代表神经系统疾病范围的 44 种疾病的研究兴趣，对此有基于人群的频率估计。 1 我们将 1998 年发表的关于每种疾病的 Medline 论文数量（其中 MeSH 术语是论文的焦点）除以频率测量值（发病率或患病率）× 100 000。在计算出版物数量时，研究者 (RAS) 对每种疾病的频率不知情。
Methods and resultsWe derived a “publication ratio” to measure the amount of research interest in 44 conditions representative of the spectrum of neurological disorders, for which there are population based estimates of frequency. 1 We divided the number of Medline papers published in 1998 about each condition (in which their MeSH term was the focus of the paper) by a measure of their frequency (incidence or prevalence)× 100 000. When counting the number of publications, the investigator (RAS) was blinded to the frequency of each disease.
