Abstract

Objective: Although all animal studies are conducted in line with a specific purpose, we think that not all animal studies are performed for a scientific purpose but for personal curiosity or to fulfill a requirement. The aim of the present study is to reveal the purposes of experimental studies conducted on animals.Matherial and Methods: We searched for experimental studies performed on rats in general surgery clinics via PubMed, and obtained the e-mail addresses of the corresponding authors for each study. Afterwards, we sent a 7-item questionnaire to the authors and awaited their responses.Results: Seventy-three (22.2%) of 329 authors responded to the questionnaire. Within these studies, 31 (42.5%) were conducted as part of a dissertation, while the remaining 19 (26.0%) were conducted to meet the academic promotion criteria. Only 23 (31.5%) were conducted for scientific purposes. The cost of 41% of those studies was higher than 2500 $. Conclusion: As shown in this study, the main objective of carrying out animal studies in Turkey is usually to prepare a dissertation or to be entitled to academic promotion. Animal experiments must be planned and performed as scientific studies to support related clinical studies. Additionally, animal studies must have well-defined objectives and be carried out in line with scientific purposes that may lead to useful developments in medicine, rather than personal interests.

Özet

Amaç: Hayvan üzerinde yapılan deneysel çalışmalar belli bir amaç için yapılmakla birlikte, bu çalışmaların hepsinin bilimsel bir amaçla değil, kişisel amaçlarla yapıldığını düşünüyoruz. Bu çalışmanın amacı hayvan üzerinde yapılan deneysel çalışmaların hangi amaçla yapıldığını ortaya koymaktır.Gereç ve Yöntemler: PubMed üzerinden genel cerrahi alanında ratlar üzerinde yapılmış çalışmalar bulundu. Çalışmaların sorumlu yazarlarına 7 soruluk bir anket göndererek sonuçlarını değerlendirdik.Bulgular: Üç yüz yirmi dokuz yazarın 73'ü (%22,2) anketi cevapladı. Tüm çalışmaların 31'i (%42,5) tez yapma amacıyla, 19'u (%26,0) ise akademik yükselme kriterlerini sağlamak için yapıldı. Sadece 23 (%31,5) çalışma bilimsel amaçlarla yapılmıştı. Çalışmaların %41'inde maliyet 2500 $ üzerinde idi.Sonuç: Çalışma sonuçlarına göre Türkiye'de hayvan üzerinde yapılan çalışmaların çoğu tez yapımı ya da akademik yükselme kriterlerini sağlamak için kişisel sebeplerle yapılmaktadır. Hayvan üzerinde yapılan çalışmalar bilimsel bir çalışma olarak planlanmalı ve klinik çalışmalarla desteklenmelidir. Hayvan üzerinde yapılan çalışmalar kişisel amaçlarla değil, bilimsel amaçlarla yapılmalıdır.
