OBJECTIVE: To estimate the proportion of abstracts presented at meetings of the Latin American Society for Pediatric Research that are fully-published, to describe the reasons for not publishing papers, and to assess the impact of funding on the publication rate. METHODS: Abstracts presented at meetings held between 2005 and 2009 were included. Authors were contacted and invited to take a survey on the publication of their work or the reasons not to do it. RESULTS: Information was collected on 232 (71.4
) of the 325 abstracts presented. Of these, 58.6
were fully-published (136/232). Funded studies (40.0
) had more chances of publication (OR: 2.2; 95
CI: 1.2-3.9). "Lack of time" was the most common reason for failure to publish (35/96). CONCLUSION: 58.6
of abstracts presented at meetings of the Latin American Society for Pediatric Research, were published as full-text articles; lack of time was the most common reason for failure to publish. Funded research had more chances of being published.
