OBJECTIVES: The primary objective was to identify the number of residency projects presented at the Pediatric Pharmacy Association (PPA) Bruce Parks Memorial Residency Showcase that were subsequently published. Secondary objectives included a comparison of subsequent publications after residency completion between those who did and did not publish their residency project and an analysis of factors associated with subsequent publications. METHODS: This was a descriptive study including all pediatric-focused resident projects presented at the PPA Bruce Parks Memorial Residency Showcase from 2006 to 2015. Literature searches for all the pediatric-focused residency projects and any subsequent publications were performed. Data collection included residency type (i.e., postgraduate year 1 [PGY1], postgraduate year 2 [PGY2]), project category, and initial position after residency. A zero-inflated Poisson regression was used to analyze subsequent publication status while controlling for other factors. Statistical analyses were performed using SAS/STAT, with a priori p value < 0.05. RESULTS: There were 434 projects presented by 401 residents. Seventy-four (17.1%) were published, with the majority being PGY2s (74.3%). Subsequent publications were identified for 162 residents (40.4%), with a higher percentage in those who published their pediatric-focused residency project versus those who did not, 59.5% versus 32.8%, p < 0.001. Factors associated with subsequent publications were those who published their residency project, initial position in academia, and PGY2s. CONCLUSIONS: Of the residency projects presented at the showcase <20% were subsequently published. Those who published their residency research project were more likely to have subsequent publications. Future efforts should be taken to ensure that residents have the tools/confidence to independently publish their research/scholarship. Copyright. Pediatric Pharmacy Association. All rights reserved.
