title: Publishing trends in otorhinolaryngology from January 1997 to December 1999 in the UK.
abstract: In the last 10 years there have been many changes in otorhinolaryngology training and academic resources. The Calman reforms were introduced to our speciality in July 1996 and the last decade has also seen the number of professorial chairs in the UK rise from two to 12. One would therefore expect an increase in academic output, in terms of published works, despite the impediments generated by the Calman Training System. A search of eight leading English language otorhinolaryngology journals was carried out from January 1997 to December 1999 looking for articles with British authors. The results were compared with similar research carried out 10 years ago. There has been no major growth in the output of otorhinolaryngological publications from the UK in the last 10 years.
