Misrepresented publications underwent further review to identify fraudulent publications and/or citation errors that provide an unfair competitive advantage. Applications to the Mayo School of Graduate Medical Education anesthesiology core residency in Rochester, Minnesota, were reviewed for publication misrepresentations using Medline and PubMed databases, Mayo Clinic library databases, and/or review by a qualified medical librarian. Our purpose in this study was to document the prevalence of publication misrepresentation among applicants to a single anesthesiology residency, to compare anesthesiology publication misrepresentation data with similar data in other specialties, and to determine how often publication misrepresentation leads to an unfair competitive advantage in the application process. However, these data are not available for anesthesiology applicants.
Publication misrepresentation has been documented among applicants for residency positions in several specialties. Neuman, Stephanie A Long, Timothy R Rose, Steven H Publication misrepresentation among anesthesiology residency applicants.
