医学期刊作者、编辑和审稿人对医学研究报告规范认知度的调查结果分析

Survey and analysis of the awareness of authors,editors and reviewers on medical research reporting guidelines

医学研究报告规范旨在通过促进医学论文的完整报告提高医学研究的可靠性和转化应用。本研究采用随机抽样和问卷调查的方法分析作者、审稿人、编辑对医学研究报告规范的知晓率、认可度、培训需求及影响因素,并收集报告规范在实施过程中存在的问题。结果表明,了解医学研究报告规范的调查对象中,知晓率最高的报告规范为《生物医学期刊投稿统一要求》(82.31%,1271/1544),其次是临床试验报告统一标准(CONSORT)声明(16.13%,249/1544),其他报告规范的知晓率均低于14%。51.10%(789/1544)的调查对象认为非常有必要应用医学研究报告规范。医学研究报告规范的条目复杂且要求过于严格、扩展版太多太细,以及使用起来耗费的时间、人力成本过高是其应用的主要障碍。简化现有报告规范,制定相应的期刊政策,借助便于使用的人工智能技术,积极开展系统培训,将有助于作者、审稿人、编辑转变观念,形成鼓励使用报告规范的环境和文化,从而提升医学研究报告质量。

Medical research reporting guidelines(RG)aim to improve the reliability and translational application of medical research by promoting the integrity of medical papers.This study used random sampling and questionnaire survey to analyze the awareness rate,recognition,training needs and influencing factors of authors,reviewers and editors on medical research RG,and collected the problems in the implementation process of RG.The results showed that the highest awareness rate of RG among respondents was the Uniform Requirements for Submissions to Biomedical Journals(82.31%,1271/1544),followed by the CONSORT statement(16.13%,249/1544),and the awareness rates of other RGs were all below 14%.Half of the respondents considered it very necessary to apply medical research RGs.The main obstacles are the complexity of the entries,overly strict requirements,too many detailed extended versions,too much time,labor and cost to use.By simplifying the existing RGs,developing corresponding journal policies,promoting their use with the help of artificial intelligence technology,actively conducting systematic training,and strengthening the responsibility of authors,reviewers and editors in academic publishing,which will help to change the concept,create an environment and culture that encourages the use of RG,and improve the quality of medical research reports.
