A dissenting view on mandatory preprint deposit
Authors
Abstract
The writer contends that in clinical fields the risks of premature dissemination have been too readily dismissed. The analysis draws on a corpus assembled from institutional repositories, preprint servers and publisher metadata feeds, and the full dataset together with the code needed to reproduce every figure is deposited under a permissive licence. Limitations, including coverage gaps in non-English sources, are set out in the discussion.
