Searches on PubMed and Google Scholar, utilizing keywords from the titles and the author names, were conducted to trace subsequent full-text publications.

The presentations included both oral (<i>n</i> = 817, 38.2%) and poster presentations (<i>n</i> = 1,322, 61.8%). They predominantly focused on clinical topics (90.6%). Single-center retrospective studies were the most common study design (43.7%). Out of all abstracts presented, 1,033 (48.3%) were published within an average time interval of 1.39 ± 1.19 years after presentation. Most journals had an impact factor (IF) between 1 and 5 (74.5%).
