预印本，即同行评议之前的科学手稿版本，越来越受欢迎。它们提供了一个民主化和加速研究的机会，因为它们没有出版成本或漫长的同行评审过程。预印本通常随后在同行评审的场所出版，但这些出版物和原始预印本通常没有任何联系。为此，我们开发了一个工具PreprintMatch，用于查找预印本及其相应的已发表论文（如果存在）之间的匹配。该工具在匹配性能和速度方面都优于现有的预印本和纸张匹配技术。应用PreprintMatch搜索预印本（来自bioRxiv和medRxiv）与PubMed之间的匹配。预印本的初步性质在相对早期的阶段为科学项目提供了一个独特的视角，并且预印本和论文之间有了更好的匹配，我们探讨了与研究不平等相关的问题。我们发现，来自低收入国家的预印本作为同行评议论文发表的比例低于高收入国家（分别为39.6%和61.1%），我们的数据与以前的工作一致，这些工作引用了缺乏资源，缺乏稳定性和政策选择来解释这种差异。来自低收入国家的预印本也被发现出版更快（178 vs 203天），与高收入国家相比，标题，摘要和作者与出版版本的相似性更少。低收入国家比高收入国家增加了更多的作者（分别为0.42和0.32），这种做法在中国比类似国家更常见。最后，我们发现一些出版商比其他出版商更频繁地出版来自低收入国家的作者的作品。
Preprints, versions of scientific manuscripts that precede peer review, are growing in popularity. They offer an opportunity to democratize and accelerate research, as they have no publication costs or a lengthy peer review process. Preprints are often later published in peer-reviewed venues, but these publications and the original preprints are frequently not linked in any way. To this end, we developed a tool, PreprintMatch, to find matches between preprints and their corresponding published papers, if they exist. This tool outperforms existing techniques to match preprints and papers, both on matching performance and speed. PreprintMatch was applied to search for matches between preprints (from bioRxiv and medRxiv), and PubMed. The preliminary nature of preprints offers a unique perspective into scientific projects at a relatively early stage, and with better matching between preprint and paper, we explored questions related to research inequity. We found that preprints from low income countries are published as peer-reviewed papers at a lower rate than high income countries (39.6% and 61.1%, respectively), and our data is consistent with previous work that cite a lack of resources, lack of stability, and policy choices to explain this discrepancy. Preprints from low income countries were also found to be published quicker (178 vs 203 days) and with less title, abstract, and author similarity to the published version compared to high income countries. Low income countries add more authors from the preprint to the published version than high income countries (0.42 authors vs 0.32, respectively), a practice that is significantly more frequent in China compared to similar countries. Finally, we find that some publishers publish work with authors from lower income countries more frequently than others.
