Many Anaesthesia journal references contain errors, with 32% in 1990 and 41% in 1994 being inaccurate. Authors must ensure citation accuracy to maintain scientific integrity.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Journal Publishing
  • Bibliometrics
  • Scientific Communication

Background:

  • Accurate citations are crucial for scientific integrity and reproducibility.
  • Previous studies have highlighted issues with reference accuracy in medical literature.
  • The journal Anaesthesia's reference quality has not been systematically evaluated.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the accuracy of references published in the journal Anaesthesia.
  • To identify common types and frequencies of citation errors.
  • To determine if reference accuracy has changed over time.

Main Methods:

  • Review of references from Anaesthesia, Volume 45 (1990) and Volume 49 (1994).
  • Random selection of 100 references from each year (total 200), excluding non-journal articles.

  • Detailed examination of citation elements: author, title, journal, volume, pages, and year.
  • Main Results:

    • 32% of 1990 references and 41% of 1994 references contained at least one error.
    • Article title, author name, and page number were the most frequent inaccuracies.
    • No significant difference in error rates was observed between the two study years.

    Conclusions:

    • A significant proportion of references in Anaesthesia contain errors.
    • Citation inaccuracies, particularly in titles and author names, are prevalent.
    • Contributors must rigorously check references to uphold publication standards.
