摘要：

IntroductionThis review aims to (1) assess the breadth of pediatric orthopaedic research in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) and (2) determine the impact of academic collaboration (an LMIC and a non-LMIC investigator) in published LMIC research.MethodsPediatric orthopaedic clinical studies conducted in LMICs from 2004 to 2014 were extracted from Embase, Cochrane, and Pubmed databases. Of 22,714 searched studies, 129 met inclusion criteria.Results85% generated low-quality evidence (level IV or lower). 21% were collaborative, and these were more likely than non-collaborative papers to generate level III evidence or higher (25% vs 13%, p=0.141).DiscussionPediatric orthopaedic research produced by LMICs rarely achieves level I-III evidence, but collaborative studies are associated with higher levels of evidence.Level of evidence: N/A.
