目的了解美国泌尿外科学会（AUA）年会论文摘要的同行评议率和时间进程。为了评估最终同行评审出版物的任何重要预测因素，将摘要编号、会议年份、演示类型（讲台与海报）、研究类型（基础与临床）、出版日期和会议名称（即前列腺癌：晚期）输入数据库。生存分析表明，大多数摘要在各自会议的2年内发表。单变量和多变量技术表明，没有一个测试的协变量是显着的预测publication.Conclusion信息在AUA年会上提出的医生应仔细考虑之前，实施到他们的临床实践。鼓励研究人员公布他们的数据。
Objective To determine the rate and time-course of peer-reviewed publication of abstracts presented at the annual meetings of the American Urological Association (AUA).Methods All abstracts presented at the annual meetings of the AUA from 1998 to 2000 were searched in the PubMed database. To assess any significant predictors of ultimate peer-reviewed publication, abstract number, meeting year, presentation type (podium vs poster), type of research (basic vs clinical), date of publication and session name (i.e. prostate cancer: advanced) were entered into a database.Results The overall rate of publication was 37.8%. Survival analysis indicated that most abstracts were published within 2 years of their respective meetings. Univariate and multivariate techniques showed that none of the tested covariates were significant predictors of publication.Conclusion Information presented at the AUA annual meetings should be carefully considered by physicians before implementation into their clinical practice. Researchers are encouraged to publish their data.
