AMLC检测医学论文的特点及期刊的应用对策

Characteristics of AMLC in checking medical articles and its application in periodical editorial offices

学术不端文献检测系统(AMLC)的成功开发和免费推广,为学术期刊抵制学术期刊中的学术不端行为提供了锐利的武器;但在多种学术不端行为中,AMLC仅能检测一稿多投(或多发)、重复或抄袭、不正当署名等。本文检测了178篇来稿和2期共55篇已发表论文,发现约有40%的医学论文存在或多或少的文字重复现象,其中重复文字比>30%者达16.7%。分析发现,医学论文"方法"和"讨论"部分重复文字较多、AMLC对数字和符号不敏感等,也发现了一些较易重复的论文或项目。提出了AMLC的一些改良建议和期刊编辑部在使用过程中的一些对策。

Academic Misconduct Literature Check （AMLC） has provided editors a sharp weapon against misconduct articles since its development and extension. However AMLC can only check a few academic misconducts, such as multiple contribution of same manuscript, pleonasm or plagiarizing, unwarrantable signature, and so on. We checked 178 medical manuscripts and 55 articles published in 2 issues, and found that almost 40% of them repeated other articles sentences or passages to some extent, among which those repeating ratio with more than 30% reached 16. 7%. Analysis found that methods and discussion sections of articles got higher repeating ratio, and AMLC was non-sensitive to numbers and signs. Kinds of articles and items prone to repetition are also described. Improving measures for AMLC are suggested, and applications of AMLC in journal editor offices are also noticed
