Objective To describe the clinical research support systems in Japanese board certification programs of internal medicine and to assess the relationship between these support systems and the scholarly activities of residents. Methods In 2018, a 26-item web questionnaire was mailed to 542 points of contact of hospitals listed as certified residency programs of internal medicine in order to obtain information about the presence of a research support system and scholarly activity from 2016. We used hospital characteristic data from the Japanese Diagnostic Procedure Combination database, a national inpatient database, and the annual report of the Japanese Society of Internal Medicine. Results A total of 228 hospitals (42%) responded to the survey. There were regular research lectures in 129 hospitals (57%), protected time (time to perform research during working hours) in 53 hospitals (23%), research consultations in 175 hospitals (77%), regular journal clubs in 213 hospitals (77%), regular research conferences in 151 hospitals (66%), data warehouses in 139 hospitals (61%), and financial research support from the hospital budget in 140 hospitals (61%). A multivariate analysis showed that none of the research support systems were related to the number of conference presentations. In contrast, protected time (odds ratio [OR] 3.66, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.43-9.39) and regular research conferences (OR 2.20, 95% CI 1.14-4.23) were related to the presence of clinical research presentations in scientific conferences hosted by residents. Conclusion Protected time and regular research conferences were related to the scholarly activity of residents in Japanese teaching hospitals.

BACKGROUNDThe objective of this study was to investigate the methodological quality of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) systematic reviews (SRs) indexed in medRxiv and PubMed, compared with Cochrane COVID Reviews.METHODSThis is a cross-sectional meta-epidemiological study. We searched medRxiv, PubMed, and Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews for SRs of COVID-19. We evaluated the methodological quality using A MeaSurement Tool to Assess systematic Reviews (AMSTAR) checklists. The maximum AMSTAR score is 11, and minimum is 0. Higher score means better quality.RESULTSWe included 9 Cochrane reviews as well as randomly selected 100 non-Cochrane reviews in medRxiv and PubMed. Compared with Cochrane reviews (mean 9.33, standard deviation 1.32), the mean AMSTAR scores of the articles in medRxiv were lower (mean difference (MD): −2.85, 98.3% confidence intervals (CI): −0.96 to −4.74), and those in PubMed were also lower (MD: −3.28, 98.3%CI: −1.40 to −5.15), with no difference between the latter two.CONCLUSIONSReaders should pay attention to the potentially low methodological quality of SRs related to COVID-19 in both PubMed and medRxiv. Evidence users might be better to search the Cochrane Library rather than medRxiv or PubMed to search SRs related to COVID-19.
