AI Article Synopsis

  • * A literature review of ecology and evolution papers since 2010 shows that only 6% of these studies publish their code, with little improvement observed over the years.
  • * Papers that share code, along with other Open Science practices like data sharing and open-access publishing, tend to receive more citations, suggesting that code sharing can enhance a publication's academic reach.

Article Abstract

Biologists increasingly rely on computer code to collect and analyze their data, reinforcing the importance of published code for transparency, reproducibility, training, and a basis for further work. Here, we conduct a literature review estimating temporal trends in code sharing in ecology and evolution publications since 2010, and test for an influence of code sharing on citation rate. We find that code is rarely published (only 6% of papers), with little improvement over time. We also found there may be incentives to publish code: Publications that share code have tended to be low-impact initially, but accumulate citations faster, compensating for this deficit. Studies that additionally meet other Open Science criteria, open-access publication, or data sharing, have still higher citation rates, with publications meeting all three criteria (code sharing, data sharing, and open access publication) tending to have the most citations and highest rate of citation accumulation.

Elucidating metabolic pathways through genomic analysis in highly heavy metal-resistant strains.

Heliyon

December 2024

Research Laboratory of Environmental Sciences and Sustainable Development, LR18ES32, University of Sfax, Tunisia.

The annotated and predicted genomes of five archaeal strains (AS1, AS2, AS8, AS11 and AS19), isolated from Sfax solar saltern sediments (Tunisia) and affiliated with , were performed by RAST webserver (Rapid Annotation using Subsystem Technology) and NCBI prokaryotic genome annotation pipeline (PGAP). The results showed the ability of strains to use a reduced semi-phosphorylative Entner-Doudoroff pathway for glucose degradation and an Embden-Meyerhof one for gluconeogenesis. They could use glucose, fructose, glycerol, and acetate as sole source of carbon and energy.

Evaluation of the quality of safe dental services based on the perception of patients with the IPA approach: a powerful diagnostic tool for managers.

BMC Health Serv Res

December 2024

Department of Higher Education Administration, School of Management and Economics, Science and Research Branch, Islamic Azad University, Tehran, Iran.

Background: In today's competitive world, especially in critical situations, dental clinic managers seek to retain customers and allocate more market share. The importance-performance analysis (IPA) technique is a powerful diagnostic tool that helps managers identify fundamental deficiencies, establish priorities and provide insights into which service improvement areas managers should focus on. This study aimed to improve the quality of life of patients at the Alborz Dental Clinic based on their perception of safe services during the coronavirus pandemic using IPA.

Understanding the National Healthcare Ecosystem to Position Medical Affairs as a Strategic Element: Lessons Learned from AstraZeneca Spain.

Pharmaceut Med

December 2024

Medical Affairs Department, AstraZeneca Farmacéutica Spain, C. del Puerto de Somport 21-23, Fuencarral-El Pardo, 28050, Madrid, Spain.

Introduction: The rapidly evolving healthcare landscape has prompted Medical Affairs (MA) departments within pharmaceutical companies to transition from their traditional role as information providers to becoming strategic partners in the healthcare ecosystem. Responding to the increasing complexity of patient needs and stakeholder dynamics within Spain's national health system, this shift emphasizes the importance of aligning MA functions with broader healthcare goals. Effective transformation requires in-depth assessments of stakeholder trends and expectations.
