Open Science Policies and Practices of Surgical Journals

Reproducibility and transparency are important considerations in medical research; recent retractions of studies in several medical journals underscore the relevance of these issues. Many tools exist to promote research quality and transparency, including protocol preregistration sites for observational studies, EQUATOR Network reporting guidelines for most common study types, and preprint servers. However, the extent to which the surgical research ecosystem has adopted these tools is unknown. The purpose of this study was to describe the use of these quality-promoting practices in surgical research.
