We know that you are all keen to hear about progress regarding the writing and publication of results from GS1.
The main results paper was completed a couple of months ago and is currently out for review. It was rejected from the first couple of journals it was submitted to – high ranking journals, of course!
There are 4 further analyses currently being written which will be submitted following publication of the main analysis.
We will be providing investigators with PowerPoint slides of the results so you can present them locally.
We will keep you posted with updates.
Dear ladies & Gentlemen,
is there any news yet ?
Thanks Diaa. Very soon we hope!
Dear Global Surg I team,
Good luck to the guys who are chasing the publications. It would be nice to see why the high end journals have rejected such an important study done globally. Are there methodology issue, law and permission issues. please share if you could.
Thanks Monty.
I think it would be a good idea to publish here all reviewer feedback once the first paper is in print – this will hopefully be very very soon! Then we can get views from all collaborators on what you think about the comments.
Major comments have related to methodology, particularly that hospitals can choose to opt into the study, rather than there being a pre-planned spread of global hospitals. My feeling is that the GlobalSurg approach is still so new that reviewers possibly don’t know how do compare it to studies that have been done before.
