Description

The availability of research data sets is an important milestone since it can enhance the dynamics of research. This study aims to analyze the PubMed Central repository to determine the availability and type of raw data sets in Cell & Tissue Engineering journals indexed in the Journal Citation Reports. The number and types of files were registered. A search of the 21 journals from the Cell & Tissue Engineering category of the 2015 Journal Citation Reports was conducted. Information was collected from October to December 2016. A study of the supplementary material of the original articles published between 2011-2015 was performed through a search in the PubMed Central repository, which is the most used free full-text repository in biomedicine. Only articles with supplementary material were retrieved. The number and types of files were registered. In cases where a compressed file, such as a .zip or .rar file, was found, it was opened to check what kinds of files it contained.
