Purpose: Open-access publishing expanded opportunities to give visibility to research results but was accompanied by the proliferation of predatory journals (PJos) that offer expedited publishing but potentially compromise the integrity of research and peer review. To our knowledge, to date, there is no comprehensive global study on the impact of PJos in the field of oncology.
Materials And Methods: A 29 question-based cross-sectional survey was developed to explore knowledge and practices of predatory publishing and analyzed using descriptive statistics and binary logistic regression.
Article Synopsis
- Fertility and pregnancy issues are crucial for young breast cancer patients, but there's limited understanding among physicians in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) on these topics.
- A survey of 288 physicians revealed that many had never consulted international guidelines, and a significant portion felt uninformed about fertility preservation methods like cryopreservation.
- The results indicate a need for improved education and awareness among LMIC physicians regarding fertility preservation and pregnancy considerations for young breast cancer survivors.
