Özet

Aim: A large number of articles are published in the field of Emergency medicine in Turkiye every year. This study aims to evaluate the number and quality of publications in the field of emergency medicine in Turkiye and to determine the effect of female authors on publication quality. Materials and Methods: A total of 32 international journals were identified. All articles published in these journals between January 01, 2015, and December 31, 2020 were reviewed, and publications by Turkish researchers were included in the study. Results: Most of the publications are case reports and series (35.7%), but the numbers of systematic reviews (0.4%) and meta-analyses (0.3%) are low. The median count of authors of the articles was 5 (1-32) [for women: 1 (0-16); for men: 4 (0-16); p<0.001]. There is at least one woman author in 66.9% of the publications included in the study. 173 (22.5%) of the publications had female corresponding authors, while 192 (25%) of the publications had female first authors; moreover, 149 (19.4%) of the studies had both female first and corresponding authors. There was also no significant difference in the gender of the first authors and corresponding authors across years (p>0.05). Conclusion: The number of women authors was found to be statistically significant lower than the number of men authors. However, there was no gender difference in the distribution of first authors and corresponding authors. This showed that although the number of women was small, they were in an influential position.
