Abstract

Objective: To determine the rate of publication of abstracts presented at the National Congress of Dental Students (CONADEO) 2013-2017 and to analyze publications according to Institution of origin, study design, and journal indexing. 

Material and Methods: Descriptive cross-sectional study. The abstracts presented were sought in MEDLINE (PubMed), SciELO, and Google Scholar to locate their respective publications. Information was collected regarding the study design, institution of origin of the abstract, name of the journal, indexing, and impact factor. These data were registered in Google Forms and exported to Google Spreadsheets, to be analyzed using descriptive statistics. 

Results: 627 abstracts were included. The publication rate resulted in 1.75%.  The institution with the most publications was the Universidad de Talca (45.45%). The type of study design with most publications was Bibliographic reviews (45.45%). 54.54% of the publications located were indexed in other databases. 

Conclusions: The rate of publication of abstracts presented in CONADEO was found to be low compared to the number of abstracts presented. It is suggested further analysis to investigate the possible barriers that prevented achieving a final publication.
