Reference accuracy in spine surgery articles needs improvement. A study found citation and quotation errors in most evaluated publications, highlighting the need for greater attention to detail in scientific documentation.

Area of Science:

  • Spine Surgery
  • Medical Literature Analysis

Background:

  • Accurate references are crucial for validating scientific statements in medical articles.
  • Evaluating reference accuracy is essential for maintaining the integrity of published research.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the accuracy of references within peer-reviewed spine surgery journals.
  • To identify the prevalence of citation and quotation errors in spine surgery literature.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of 220 articles published in 2019 from four major spine surgery journals.
  • Random selection of one reference per article for citation and quotation error checking.

Main Results:

  • 84.1% of articles contained minor citation errors, and 4.5% had major citation errors.
