2024
Abstract
Patient authorship is a new topic in medical publishing, with the number of patient-authored publications growing rapidly. Publication stakeholders (e.g., editors, publishers, funders, researchers) should be aware of the legitimacy of patient authorship. Practical actions can be taken by different publication stakeholders to encourage and support patient authorship-ethically and effectively. Patient authorship can contribute to enhancing diversity, equity, and inclusion in medical publishing. Research on patient authorship could be strengthened with consensus on publication tagging practices (e.g., affiliation terms) and the use of artificial intelligence. A plain language summary of this article and the GRIPP2 form for reporting patient involvement are available as supplementary information.
