Objective: The aim of the present study is to evaluate the publication rates of the abstracts presented at the National Dermatology Congress and the consistency between the abstracts and the article. Material and Methods: 27th National Dermatology Congress was chosen as a reference. A total of the 339 oral presentations (OPs) and poster presentations (PPs) in the congress booklet were included. PubMed, Google Scholar and TR Index search engines were used to search for the full-text articles of the presentations. The type of presentation, the clinic from which it was sent, the number of authors, and the dermatological disease group, the type of the presentation published as an article, its consistency with the abstract, the journal index, the type of publication, the number of citations, the number of months until publication were evaluated. Results: The mean number of authors in the presentations was 3.64±1.88, the mean time until publication was 28.44±9.84 months. A total of 65 (19.2%) OPs and 274 (80.8%) PPs were presented. Universities were the clinics that presented the highest number of abstracts (p<0.05). A total of 57 (16.2%) abstracts were published as articles. Papulosquamous disorders were the most frequently presented disease group with 71 (20.9%) presentations. OPs were published mean 29.64±6.12 months alter and PPS were published mean 27.84±11.16 months later. The publication and citation rate of OPs were higher than that of PPs (p<0.05). OPs were more likely to be original studies and PPs were more likely to be case reports (p<0.05). Inconsistency was detected in 29 (50.8%) of the presentations that were published as articles. Inconsistency rate of PPs was found to be higher (p<0.05). Conclusion: The National Turkish Dermatology Congress is generally productive, similar quality when compared to national congresses and low quality when compared to international congresses.

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, Ulusal Dermatoloji Kongresi'nde sunulan özetlerin yayımlanma oranlarını ve özetler ile makale arasındaki tutarlılığı değerlendirmektir. Gereç ve Yöntemler: 27. Ulusal Dermatoloji Kongresi referans olarak seçilmiştir. Kongre kitapçığında yer alan toplam 339 sözlü bildiri (SB) ve poster bildiri (PB) çalışmaya alındı. Bildirilerden yapılan makalelerin tam metnine ulaşmak için PubMed, Google Scholar ve TR Dizin arama motorları kullanıldı. Bildirilerin türü, gönderildiği klinik, yazar sayısı ve ait olduğu dermatolojik hastalık grubu, makale olarak yayımlanan sunumun türü, özetle uygunluğu, dergi indeksi, yayın türü, atıf sayısı, yayına kadar geçen ay değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Bildirilerdeki ortalama yazar sayısı 3,64±1,88; yayına kadar geçen ortalama süre 28,44±9,84 ay idi. Toplam 65 (%19,2) SB ve 274 (%80,8) PB sunuldu. Üniversiteler en fazla bildiri sunan kliniklerdi (p<0,05). Toplam 57 (%16,2) özet, makale olarak yayımlandı. Papüloskuamöz bozukluklar, 71 (%20,9) bildiri ile en çok sunumu yapılan hastalık grubuydu. SB'ler, 29,64±6,12 ay sonra; PB'ler 27,84±11,16 ay sonra yayımlandı (p>0,05). SB'lerin yayımlanma ve atıf alma oranı, PB'lerden daha yüksekti (p<0,05). SB'lerin orijinal araştırma olma oranı daha yüksek iken; PB'lerin vaka takdimi olma oranı daha yüksekti (p<0,05). Makale olarak yayımlanan bildirilerin 29'unda (%50,8) tutarsızlık tespit edildi. PB'lerin tutarsızlık oranı daha yüksek saptandı (p<0,05). Sonuç: Ulusal Dermatoloji Kongresi'nin genel olarak verimli, ulusal kongrelere göre benzer kalitede, uluslararası kongrelere göre düşük kalitede olduğu saptandı.
