Abstract

For over a decade, the non-publication of negative results from preclinical studies has been identified as a significant concern in biomedical research. Such underreporting is considered a contributor to the reproducibility crisis in the field and has been recognized by significant journals such as Science and Nature. In response to the consistently high non-publication rates of preclinical animal research in Europe, a survey was conducted among the biomedical research community to gather their views on publishing negative results. Using the EUSurvey platform, over 200 researchers directly working with animals were surveyed. The study aimed to understand the frequency of negative results, the reasons behind their non-publication, and the perceived pros and cons of making such results public. Insights from the survey could guide steps toward promoting transparency in science, refining research methodologies, reducing animal usage in experiments and minimizing research waste.

动物研究人员对公布负面结果的看法以及随后采取的政策。
十多年来,不公布临床前研究的负面结果一直被认为是生物医学研究中的一个重大问题。这种报告不足被认为是造成该领域可重复性危机的一个因素,并得到了《科学》和《自然》等重要期刊的认可。针对欧洲临床前动物研究未发表率居高不下的问题,我们在生物医学研究界开展了一项调查,以收集他们对发表负面结果的看法。利用 EUSurvey 平台,200 多名直接与动物打交道的研究人员接受了调查。这项研究旨在了解负面结果的出现频率、不公布负面结果的原因以及公开负面结果的利弊。调查所获得的启示可为促进科学透明度、改进研究方法、减少实验中的动物使用以及最大限度地减少研究浪费提供指导。

期刊介绍: The international journal of laboratory animal science and welfare, Laboratory Animals publishes peer-reviewed original papers and reviews on all aspects of the use of animals in biomedical research. The journal promotes improvements in the welfare or well-being of the animals used, it particularly focuses on research that reduces the number of animals used or which replaces animal models with in vitro alternatives.
