Abstract

Introduction: The publication rate of abstracts presented at the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS) Annual Meetings has increased over the past 15 years. The purpose of this study was to (1) analyze and describe the characteristics of abstracts presented at the 2022 and 2023 AAOS Annual Meetings and (2) evaluate whether certain factors were associated with a higher likelihood of publication.

Methods: A retrospective analysis of all abstracts presented at the 2022 and 2023 AAOS Annual Meeting was done based on the AAOS ePosters archive. PubMed and Google Scholar databases were searched to determine whether the abstract had been followed by publication in a peer-reviewed journal within 1 year of presentation.

Results: A total of 1,987 abstracts were presented at the AAOS Annual Meeting; most were in adult reconstruction (30.1%), and 44% were published. Most studies had a level of evidence of III (71%), and the use of large databases increased between years (9.4% to 13%). Foot and ankle exhibited the highest publication rates among AAOS subspecialties (61%). Abstracts that were published had a markedly higher sample size and a higher rate of men as first authors (P < 0.001). Hand and wrist (30%) and practice management and rehabilitation (25.8%) had the highest rates of women as first and senior authors, respectively.

Conclusion: We found that 44% of the abstracts presented at the 2022 and 2023 AAOS Annual Meetings resulted in publication. Although most abstracts were in adult reconstruction, foot and ankle had the highest publication rate.

Level of evidence: III.

期刊介绍： The Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons was established in the fall of 1993 by the Academy in response to its membership’s demand for a clinical review journal. Two issues were published the first year, followed by six issues yearly from 1994 through 2004. In September 2005, JAAOS began publishing monthly issues. Each issue includes richly illustrated peer-reviewed articles focused on clinical diagnosis and management. Special features in each issue provide commentary on developments in pharmacotherapeutics, materials and techniques, and computer applications.
