    Rauh et al. Research Integrity and Peer Review (2020) 5:5 Research Integrity and https://doi.org/10.1186/s41073-020-0091-5 Peer Review RESEARCH Open Access Reproducible and transparent research practices in published neurology research Shelby Rauh1* , Trevor Torgerson1, Austin L. Johnson1, Jonathan Pollard2, Daniel Tritz1 and Matt Vassar1 Abstract Background: The objective of this study was to evaluate the nature and extent of reproducible and transparent research practices in neurology publications. Methods: The NLM catalog was used to identify MEDLINE-indexed neurology journals. A PubMed search of these journals was conducted to retrieve publications over a 5-year period from 2014 to 2018. A random sample of publications was extracted. Two authors conducted data extraction in a blinded, duplicate fashion using a pilot- tested Google form. This form prompted data extractors to determine whether publications provided access to items such as study materials, raw data, analysis scripts, and protocols. In addition, we determined if the publication was included in a replication study or systematic review, was preregistered, had a conflict of interest declaration, specified funding sources, and was open access. Results: Our search identified 223,932 publications meeting the inclusion criteria, from which 400 were randomly sampled. Only 389 articles were accessible, yielding 271 publications with empirical data for analysis. Our results indicate that 9.4% provided access to materials, 9.2% provided access to raw data, 0.7% provided access to the analysis scripts, 0.7% linked the protocol, and 3.7% were preregistered. A third of sampled publications lacked funding or conflict of interest statements.

  • Bibliometric Analysis of Manuscript Characteristics That Influence Citations: a Comparison of Four Major Neurology Journals
    Neurology Asia 2021; 26(2) : 347 – 353 Bibliometric analysis of manuscript characteristics that influence citations: A comparison of four major neurology journals 1Maham Vaqar, 2John Walsh, 3Cathal Walsh, 4Urooba Faheem, 5Syed Omar Yousuf Kazmi, 6Marium Mehmood, 7Faisal Khosa 1Medical College, Aga Khan University, Karachi, Pakistan; 2Department of Radiology, University of British Columbia, Canada; 3Health Research Institute, University of Limerick, Ireland; 4University of Arizona/Banner University Medical Center, Tucson, Arizona, USA; 5Neurology, Salem Health, Salem, Oregon, USA; 6Department of Internal Medicine, Dow University of Health and Sciences, Karachi, Pakistan; 7Department of Radiology, University of British Columbia, Canada Abstract Objective: To inspect 28 data characteristics among the top neurology journals with the highest impact factor and their influence on citation rate. Methods: Consecutive articles from January 2004 to June 2004 were collected from four major neurology journals with the highest impact factor: The Lancet Neurology (impact factor, 11.964), Acta Neuropathologica (7.589), Brain (5.858) and Annals of Neurology (5.706). Web of Science was used to extract the citation count for these articles, and 28 article characteristics were tabulated manually. Univariate analysis and a multiple regression model were performed to predict citation number from the collected variables. Results: A total of 288 manuscripts i.e. 24 in The Lancet Neurology, 70 in Acta Neuropathologica, 117 in Brain and 77 in Annals of Neurology. Univariate analysis revealed the following variables to have a significant positive correlation with increased citations: journal (1; p<0.0001), country of origin (15; p<0.0001), number of tables (28; p=0.0007), words per title (7; p=0.0006), design of study (17; p=0.001), open access (22; p<0.0001), total words (24; p<0.0001), total references (25; p<0.0001) and total number of pages (26; p<0.0001).
