La Colaboracin Cochrane en Cuba. La produccin de informes sobre ensayos clnicos realizados en Cuba en las bases de datos Medline y en el Web of Science
Lic. Rubn Caedo Andalia,1 Juan A Arajo Ruiz,2 Ricardo Arencibia Jorge3 y Carlos Gutirrez Calzado4 Resumen Con el objetivo de identificar las publicaciones realizadas por autores cubanos para informar sobre los resultados de ensayos clnicos realizados en el pas, tanto en revistas nacionales como extranjeras, as como de ubicar la posicin de Cuba con respecto al resto de los pases iberoamericanos y de la regin, se explor la base de datos PubMed/Medline, disponible en Internet. Adicionalmente, se examinaron las bases de datos del Web of Science. Se hallaron 142 referencias a informes de ensayos clnicos publicados por autores cubanos, con la participacin o sin ella de autores de otros pases, en Medline. De ellas, 116 se encontraron en publicaciones extranjeras y 26 en nacionales. Cuba se ubic en el sexto lugar entre los 20 pases analizados del rea, segn la publicacin de informes sobre ensayos clnicos, donde el primer autor labora en una organizacin perteneciente a dicho pas. Iberoamrica, como regin, gener un nmero de trabajos similar a la que muestra Finlandia; sin embargo, ms de la mitad de esta produccin se concentr slo en dos pases: Brasil y Mxico. Es imprescindible una visin, una conciencia, una infraestructura, una organizacin y una voluntad poltica de los pases de la regin para estimular la actividad clnicoinvestigativa de los pases en Iberoamrica.

The Web of Science was also examined. In Medline, 142 references of clinical trial reports published by Cuban authors were found: 116 in foreing publications and 26 in national journals. Cuba is situated in the 6th place among the 20 countries analyzed according to the production reports where the first author correspond to that country. According the last indicator, Iberoamerica produced a work number similar to those produced by Denmark. Nevertheless, most of the half of this production is located in two countries: Brasil and Mexico. A vision, a conciousness, a frame and also a political willingness of the countries to encourage the clinical research activity of Iberoamerican countries is deeply needed Subject headings (DeCS): CLINICAL TRIALS; RESEARCH; DATABASES,/utilization; INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION; AUTHORSHIP; LATIN AMERICA; CUBA

Subject headings (DeCI): RESEARCH PROJECTS; DATABASES, BIBLIOGRAPHIC; BIBLIOGRAPHY OF MEDICINE; INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION; AUTHORSHIP; LATIN AMERICA; CUBA El ejercicio de una asistencia mdica basada en la evidencia (MBE) ha dejado de ser una simple propuesta terica para convertirse en un fenmeno en expansin que alcanza hoy todos los rincones de la prctica clnica moderna. Los ensayos clnicos, un tipo de estudio planificado con anterioridad, para establecer la seguridad, eficacia y dosificacin de uno o ms drogas profilcticas, teraputicas o diagnsticas, as como de equipos o tcnicas seleccionadas de acuerdo con criterios predeterminados de eligibilidad y evidencias de sus efectos favorables o desfavorables, constituyen la piedra angular de la investigacin clnica actual y el soporte esencial de los metanlisis y las revisiones sistemticas, los estudios integradores y sintetizadores, que conforman, a su vez, las bases donde se sustenta la prctica de la MBE. La realizacin de ensayos clnicos, y la consecuente publicacin de sus resultados, constituye un indicador confiable para medir el nivel alcanzado por la investigacin clnica en un pas. Cuba, un pas con un inters especial en el rea de los ensayos clnicos, derivado de su pujante industria mdico- farmacutica y de la bsqueda constante de una mejor atencin clnica de su poblacin, se enfrenta ahora a la tarea de insertarse en la fuerte corriente de desarrollo que genera la MBE a escala internacional. Y no son pocos los trabajos que se han realizado en un corto periodo de tiempo.1-3 Mtodos Con el objetivo de identificar las publicaciones realizadas con la participacin de autores cubanos para informar sobre los resultados de ensayos clnicos realizados en el pas, tanto en revistas nacionales como extranjeras, se explor la base de datos PubMed/Medline, disponible en Internet. Para ello, se emple la estrategia de bsqueda siguiente: Estrategia de bsqueda 1: (clinical trial) OR (controlled clinical trial) OR (randomized controlled trial) in PT PT es el tipo de publicacin. 2: Nombre del pas [AD] AD es el campo donde se coloca la afiliacin del primer autor del informe. Si el nombre del pas es compuesto, por ejemplo, Costa Rica: 2: Costa AND Rica [AD] Si el nombre del pas, se escribe de formas diferentes, la bsqueda se realiz por cada una de sus equivalencias, por ejemplo: 2: Brasil [AD] 2: Brasil [AD] 3: # 1 AND # 2 Y as sucesivamente, con cada uno de los 20 pases integrantes del territorio iberoamericano. Adicionalmente, y con el objetivo de ampliar la bsqueda de informes de ensayos clnicos publicados por autores cubanos, se realiz una exploracin de las bases de datos del Web of Science. Para este propsito, se utiliz la siguiente estrategia de bsqueda: 1: Cuba Author, Adress 2: Randomized controlled trial All 3: Controlled clinical trial All

4: Clinical trial All 5: #1 AND (#2 OR #3 or #4) Y con el propsito de ubicar la posicin que ocupa Cuba entre los pases iberoamericanos y de la regin con respecto a algunos pases desarrollados seleccionados de acuerdo con su produccin de informes sobre ensayos clnicos, se realiz una bsqueda por pases en la base de datos Medline. La medicin se realiz de acuerdo con el nmero de informes sobre ensayos clnicos cuyo primer autor se afilia a una institucin ubicada en el pas estudiado. Las bsquedas se realizaron entre los das 25 y 27 de agosto del ao 2003. Resultados y discusin Cuba aparece relacionada en 3 064 registros en Medline (27 de agosto del 2003). No obstante, aparece en 2 192 registros en el campo de afiliacin. En Medline, el campo afiliacin (AD) registra, como se conoce, la organizacin donde labora el primer autor del trabajo. El total de ensayos clnicos publicados con la participacin de autores cubanos en revistas extranjeras, identificados en Medline -on line y off line-, asciende a 142. De ellos 26, (18,30) se publicaron en las tres revistas cubanas de medicina procesadas por Medline y 116 (81,69) en revistas extranjeras (tabla 1) (anexos 1 y 2). Tabla 1.

Fuente: Medline, 25 de agosto del 2003. El nmero de ensayos identificados en el Web of Science, alcanza la cifra de 56 trabajos (anexo 3). Dicha cifra es el resultado de la eliminacin de los registros duplicados con la base de datos Medline. El primer informe sobre un ensayo clnico realizado en Cuba, publicado en una revista extranjera y registrado en Medline, corresponde al ao 1973. Se trata de un artculo donde se informan los resultados preliminares de un estudio realizado en el pas con el cromiglicato disdico. Los primeros ensayos registrados en una revista cubana procesada por esta base de datos se ubican en el ao 1974 y corresponden a dos estudios publicados en la Revista Cubana de Estomatologa. El primer ensayo clnico aleatorio se public en 1948 en la British Medical Journal. Y es comprensible que Cuba durante las dos dcadas que siguieron a la publicacin del primer ensayo clnico en el mundo no incursionara en la realizacin de esta clase de estudios. En 1959, la Revolucin se encontr con un pas prcticamente sin mdicos y sin una infraestructura de salud que posibilitara la atencin de la poblacin. La primera prioridad fue entonces crear un sistema de salud nacional que permitiera satisfacer las necesidades de salud de una creciente poblacin, realmente una tarea muy difcil y costosa. Sin embargo, no es hasta la dcada de los aos 90, cuando la actividad investigativa en el rea de los ensayos adquiere un lugar prominente dentro de la investigacin en salud en el pas. La creacin del Polo del Oeste y de otros polos de investigacin en el pas, unido a las necesidades de la industria mdicofarmacutica cubana impulsaron significativamente la generalizacin del ensayo clnico como va para obtener pruebas slidas sobre la eficacia de los productos nacionales, un requisito indispensable para su comercializacin y consumo.

El balance de informes publicados en revistas nacionales y extranjeras, procesadas por Medline, as como las debilidades actuales de las revistas cubanas de medicina aconsejan la edicin de estudios clnicos relevantes en revistas visibles internacionalmente, con el objetivo de obtener una mayor difusin de los estudios realizados en el pas. Cuba en Iberoamrica Cuba, segn el indicador utilizado para establecer la posicin que ocupa entre los pases iberoamericanos, donde se mide su liderazgo en la actividad de investigacin en el rea de los ensayos clnicos, se ubic en el sexto lugar detrs de Brasil, Mxico, Argentina, Chile y Venezuela, con 140 registros (tabla 2).

Fuente: Medline, 25 de agosto del 2003. Nota: Los trabajos pueden haberse publicado en revistas pertenecientes a los pases de los autores o a otros pases. Es oportuno aclarar que esta cifra no se corresponde con el total de referencias a ensayos clnicos,lo que se anexa a esta exposicin, debido a las diferencias que introduce la revisin manual de los registros. Y en este punto es oportuno indicar que Cuba, segn estos resultados, se halla en una posicin un tanto rezagada con respecto a sus aspiraciones. La accin de factores objetivos y subjetivos, como la carencia de una alta disciplina y profesionalidad editorial entre las revistas cubanas y la carencia de una adecuada cultura de publicacin, ha impedido que muchos estudios clnicos de calidad ingresaran oportunamente a las bases de datos internacionales para obtener la visibilidad necesaria.2

En general, se aprecian considerables diferencias en la produccin de informes de ensayos clnicos entre los pases de la regin. As, por ejemplo, Brasil y Mxico produjeron ms trabajos que el resto de los pases. Muy pocos pases, Brasil, Mxico, Argentina, Chile, Venezuela, Cuba y Colombia han generado 100 o ms trabajos, cuyo primer autor pertenece a una institucin del pas. Iberoamrica en el mundo Con el fin de comparar la actividad investigativa en materia de ensayos clnicos de los pases iberoamericanos y de la regin en general, con respecto al mismo indicador, medido en algunos pases desarrollados, se realizaron bsquedas similares a las efectuadas para establecer la participacin de los pases del centro y el sur de Amrica. La exploracin segn regiones de inters contempladas en el MESH, mediante una estrategia que incluy slo el nombre del rea y el tipo de publicacin, permiti establecer la existencia de una cierta inclusin de Amrica del Sur (859), Amrica Latina (267) y Amrica Central (156) en las investigaciones clnicas, en particular como objeto de estudio de ensayos realizados simultneamente en varios pases. Si se suman los totales particulares de ensayos clnicos generados segn pas, puede decirse que cuantitativamente Iberoamrica presenta una produccin similar a la que muestra Finlandia como pas (tabla 3).

Fuente: Medline, 25 de agosto del 2003 Es imprescindible no slo incrementar la actividad clnico-investigativa de la regin como un todo, sino fortalecer la actividad en cada pas en particular. Sin embargo, dicha tarea es sumamente ardua y, sin una conciencia nacional sobre su importancia, una infraestructura, una organizacin y un empeo colectivo, es prcticamente imposible, debido a los recursos y a la coordinacin requerida. Para muchos puede significar partir de cero, y ello exige mucha visin, para lograr ver ms all de los agobiantes problemas que enfrentan a diario las autoridades y los pueblos de Iberoamrica. Antes de concluir el presente trabajo, deseamos tratar un ltimo aspecto: las limitaciones de las bsquedas automatizadas para identificar ensayos clnicos. No son pocas las bases de datos, y no es precisamente el caso de Medline, en que es imposible prcticamente recuperar automticamente estudios con las

caractersticas exigidas para los ensayos clnicos. Sin embargo, an en Medline, una bsqueda de esta clase de estudios requiere de una revisin manual para eliminar algunos registros que realmente no corresponden con el tipo de publicacin buscado. Los resultados de los ensayos clnicos no aparecen slo en forma de artculos originales, sino tambin de cartas, editoriales, revisiones tradicionales y tutoriales, entre otros, entre los que es necesario seleccionar aquellos que verdaderamente contienen resultados originales de ensayos clnicos. En ciertas ocasiones, no se encuentra disponible el resumen del trabajo, imprescindible para determinar si se cumplen con los requisitos exigidos para este tipo de informes. As, por ejemplo, entre los 141 ensayos clnicos publicados por autores cubanos, procesados en PubMed/Medline, slo 66 fueron ensayos controlados aleatorios y una cifra menor, 17, ensayos controlados (27 de agosto del 2003). Y es loable, el esfuerzo realizado por la Biblioteca Nacional de Medicina de los Estados Unidos para facilitar las bsquedas de esta clase en sus bases de datos. Pero, an con los esfuerzos realizados, la presencia de uno o varios revisores manuales, es imprescindible para aportarle una mayor exactitud a los resultados. Ambas vas para la bsqueda, la manual y la automatizada, son complementarias y cada una tiene su propia funcin. A los efectos de este estudio, se analizaron los ensayos clnicos en su totalidad, sin consideracin o distincin a su carcter controlado o aleatorio como exige la Colaboracin Cochrane para su registro en sus bases de datos. Con vistas a la profundizacin de los resultados del presente estudio, es aconsejable la realizacin de un anlisis informtrico sobre el flujo iberoamericano de informes de ensayos clnicos en el futuro.
