OBJECTIVE: To determine the publication rates of theses in indexed journals.
METHODS: This is a descriptive study of theses of all specialties, supported in the FMT from 1 January 2008 to 31 December 2010. Articles from theses had been searched in the database "Pubmed".
RESULTS: In FMT, 806 theses were supported between 2008 and 2010. The distribution of theses across disciplines showed a predominance of medical specialties (50%). Distribution of theses according to surgical specialties revealed that the obstetrics and gynecology was the most productive specialty theses with 81 theses (10%). The index thesis was 0.70 theses per teacher per year. The studies were retrospective in 77.4%.. Of the 806 theses, 140 (17.3%) were published in indexed journals. Distribution of publications by discipline showed that 21.6% of theses produced by medical specialties resulted in at least one publication in indexed journals. Sixty journals have made the support of 164 articles from theses, dominated by" La TunisieMédicale" (45.7%). The articles were published in French in 73.8% of cases.
CONCLUSION: The rate of publications resulting from theses to the FMT, 17.3% between 2008 and 2010, is considered low. It should be improved by more prospective studies, preferably written in English. Moreover, in a spirit of positive emulation for our faculty, it is recommended to include the address of the FMT in signing publications.
