Abstract
Often, in personal conversations, we hear several reasons including time, resources,
and usefulness of published reports and of research itself for the lack of interest
by clinicians to publish scientific manuscripts. The number of patients treated is
considered a more useful indicator of clinical care acumen than the number of scientific
manuscripts published. I argue that publishing a scientific manuscript that results
from a research study is an integral part of clinical medicine and that lack of publishing
renders clinical care incomplete.
