在国际会议上的演讲提供了一个很好的方式来传播当前的研究成果。衡量研究质量的一个标准是随后的出版。我们的研究旨在确定在国际职业卫生委员会（ICOH）大会上提交的摘要的出版率，并确定出版的预测因素和提交的摘要和随后发表的papersMethods之间的差异我们确定了一个随机样本的318摘要在2000年ICOH会议从书的摘要。使用Medline和Embase，我们评估了他们的出版率在1998年至2006年期间，调查的因素与publisherate.Results的318篇摘要来自51个国家，105篇文章[33%，95%的置信区间（95%CI）27-38）]随后发表在67种期刊在Medline或Embase索引。平均发表时间为17个月（95% CI 13-21）。多变量分析显示，来自发达国家的作者撰写的具有定量数据的摘要发表的次数明显更多。从摘要提交到在同行评审期刊上发表，研究样本量和第一作者都经常变化（分别为25%和29%），但总体结论保持稳定，结论2000年ICOH大会上提交的大多数摘要后来没有作为完整的研究报告发表。如果提交给会议的大多数摘要都是这种情况，这可能会限制读者判断所提交研究的有效性，可靠性和普遍性的能力。在引用或概括随后未全文发表的摘要时，应谨慎。
Objectives Presentations at international meetings offer an excellent way to disseminate current research findings. One measure of the quality of research is jus subsequent publication. Our study aimed to determine the publication rate of abstracts presented at a congress of the International Commission on Occupational Health (ICOH), and to identify predictive factors of publication and differences between presented abstracts and subsequently published papersMethods We identified a random sample of 318 abstracts presented at the 2000 ICOH meeting from the book of abstracts. Using Medline and Embase, we assessed their publication rate in the period ranging from 1998 to 2006 and investigated the factors associated with the publication rate.Results Of 318 abstracts originating from 51 countries, 105 articles [33%, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) 27-38)] were subsequently published in 67 journals indexed in Medline or Embase. Mean time to publication was 17 months (95% CI 13-21). Multivariate analysis revealed that abstracts with quantitative data and written by authors originating from developed Countries were significantly more published From the time of abstract presentation to publication in a peer-reviewed journal, both the study sample size and the first author frequently changed (25% and 29%, respectively), but the overall conclusions remained stable, except in one caseConclusions Most of the abstracts presented at the 2000 ICOH congress were not subsequently published as full research reports. If this is the case for most abstracts submitted to conferences, this may limit the ability of a reader to judge the validity, reliability, and generalizability of the research presented. Caution is advised when referencing or generalizing from abstracts that have not been subsequently published in full.
