Abstract
Many initiatives encourage investigators to share their raw datasets in hopes of increasing research efficiency and quality. Despite these investments of time and money, we do not have a firm grasp of who openly shares raw research data, who doesn't, and which initiatives are correlated with high rates of data sharing. In this analysis I use bibliometric methods to identify patterns in the frequency with which investigators openly archive their raw gene expression microarray datasets after study publication.
Automated methods identified 11,603 articles published between 2000 and 2009 that describe the creation of gene expression microarray data. Associated datasets in best-practice repositories were found for 25% of these articles, increasing from less than 5% in 2001 to 30%–35% in 2007–2009. Accounting for sensitivity of the automated methods, approximately 45% of recent gene expression studies made their data publicly available.
First-order factor analysis on 124 diverse bibliometric attributes of the data creation articles revealed 15 factors describing authorship, funding, institution, publication, and domain environments. In multivariate regression, authors were most likely to share data if they had prior experience sharing or reusing data, if their study was published in an open access journal or a journal with a relatively strong data sharing policy, or if the study was funded by a large number of NIH grants. Authors of studies on cancer and human subjects were least likely to make their datasets available.
These results suggest research data sharing levels are still low and increasing only slowly, and data is least available in areas where it could make the biggest impact. Let's learn from those with high rates of sharing to embrace the full potential of our research output.

The reported analysis explores common factors behind these attributes and looks at the association between these factors and data sharing prevalence.</p><p>I chose to study data sharing for one particular type of data: biological gene expression microarray intensity values. Microarray studies provide a useful environment for exploring data sharing policies and behaviors. Despite being a rich resource valuable for reuse <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0018657-Rhodes1">[38]</xref>, microarray data are often, but not yet, universally shared.

As such, the results here represent data sharing in an environment where it has been particularly encouraged and supported.</p></sec><sec sec-type="methods" id="s2"><title>Methods</title><p>In brief, I used a full-text query to identify a set of studies in which the investigators generated gene expression microarray datasets. Best-practice data repositories were searched for associated datasets. Attributes of the studies were used to derive factors related to the investigators, journals, funding, institutions, and topic of the studies. Associations between these study factors and the frequency of public data archiving were determined through multivariate regression.</p><sec id="s2a"><title>Studies for analysis</title><p>The set of “gene expression microarray creation” articles was identified by querying the title, abstract, and full-text of PubMed, PubMed Central, Highwire Press, Scirus, and Google Scholar with portal-specific variants of the following query:</p><disp-quote><p><bold>(“gene expression” [text] AND “microarray” [text] AND “cell” [text] AND “rna” [text])</bold></p><p><bold>AND (“rneasy” [text] OR “trizol” [text] OR “real-time pcr” [text])</bold></p><p><bold>NOT (“tissue microarray*” [text] OR “cpg island*” [text])</bold></p></disp-quote><p>Retrieved articles were mapped to PubMed identifiers whenever possible; the union of the PubMed identifiers returned by the full text portals was used as the definitive list of articles for analysis. An independent evaluation of this approach found that it identified articles that created microarray data with a precision of 90% (95% confidence interval, 86% to 93%) and a recall of 56% (52% to 61%), compared to manual identification of articles that created microarray data <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0018657-Piwowar2">[43]</xref>.</p><p>Because Google Scholar only displays the first 1000 results of a query, I was not able to view all of its hits. I tried to identify as many Google Scholar search results as possible by iteratively appending a variety of attributes to the end of the query, including various publisher names, journal title words, and years of publication, thereby retrieving distinct subsets of the results 1000 hits at a time.</p></sec><sec id="s2b"><title>Data availability</title><p>The dependent variable in this study was whether each gene expression microarray research article had an associated dataset in a best-practice public centralized data repository. A community letter encouraging mandatory archiving in 2004 <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0018657-Ball1">[41]</xref> identified three best-practice repositories for storing gene expression microarray data: NCBI's Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), EBI's ArrayExpress, and Japan's CIBEX database. The first two were included in this analysis, since CIBEX was defunct until recently.</p><p>An earlier evaluation found that querying GEO and ArrayExpress with article PubMed identifiers located a representative 77% of all associated publicly available datasets <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0018657-Piwowar3">[44]</xref>. I used the same method for finding datasets associated with published articles in this study: I queried GEO for links to the PubMed identifiers in the analysis sample using the “pubmed_gds [filter]” and queried ArrayExpress by searching for each PubMed identifier in a downloaded copy of the ArrayExpress database. Articles linked from a dataset in either of these two centralized repositories were considered to have “shared their data” for the endpoint of this study, and those without such a link were considered not to have shared their data.</p></sec><sec id="s2c"><title>Study attributes</title><p>For each study article I collected 124 attributes for use as independent variables. The attributes were collected automatically from a wide variety of sources. Basic bibliometric metadata was extracted from the MEDLINE record, including journal, year of publication, number of authors, Medical Subject Heading (MeSH) terms, number of citations from PubMed Central, inclusion in PubMed subsets for cancer, whether the journal is published with an open-access model and if it had data-submission links from Genbank, PDB, and SwissProt.</p><p>ISI Journal Impact Factors and associated metrics were extracted from the 2008 ISI Journal Citation Reports.

From this information I tabulated the amount of total funding received for each of the fiscal years from 2003 to 2008. I also estimated the date of renewal by identifying the most recent year in which a grant number was prefixed by a “1” or “2” —indication that the grant is “new” or “renewed,” respectively.</p><p>The corresponding address was parsed for institution and country, following the methods of Yu et al. <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0018657-Yu1">[45]</xref>.

To limit the impact of extremely large “lumped” clusters that erroneously contain the publications of more than one actual author, I excluded prior publication lists for first or last authors in the largest 2% of clusters and instead considered these data missing. For each paper in an author's publication history with PubMed identifiers numerically less than the PubMed identifier of the paper in question, I queried to find if any of these prior publications had been published in an open source journal, were included in the “gene expression microarray creation” subset themselves, or had reused gene expression data. I recorded the date of the earliest publication by the author and the number of citations to date that their earlier papers received in PubMed Central.</p><p>I attempted to estimate if the paper itself reused publicly available gene expression microarray data by looking for its inclusion in the list that GEO keeps of reuse at <ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/projects/geo/info/ucitations.html">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/projects/geo/info/ucitations.html</ext-link>.</p><p>Data collection scripts were coded in Python version 2.5.2 (many libraries were used, including EUtils, BeautifulSoup, pyparsing and nltk <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0018657-Bird1">[47]</xref>) and SQLite version 3.4.

Second-order factor analysis also used the minres solution but a varimax rotation, since I wanted these factors to be orthogonal.

I submitted these factor scores to a logistic regression using the lrm function in the rms package. Continuous variables were modeled as cubic splines with 4 knots using the rcs function from the rms package, and all two-way interactions were explored.</p><p>Finally, hierarchical supervised clustering on the datapoints was performed to learn which factors were most predictive and then estimated the data sharing prevalence in a contingency table of these two clusters split at their medians.</p></sec></sec><sec id="s3"><title>Results</title><p>Full-text queries for articles describing the creation of gene expression microarray datasets returned PubMed identifiers for 11,603 studies.</p><p>MEDLINE fields were still “in process” for 512 records, resulting in missing data for MeSH-derived variables. Impact factors were found for all but 1,001 articles. Journal policy variables were missing for 4,107 articles. The institution ranking attributes were missing for 6,185. I cross-referenced NIH grant details for 3,064 studies (some grant numbers could not be parsed, because they were incomplete or strangely formatted). I was able to determine the gender of the first and last authors, based on the forenames in the MEDLINE record, for all but 2,841 first authors and 2,790 last authors.

These data are surely some of the most valuable for reuse, to confirm, refute, inform and advance bench-to-bedside translational research <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0018657-Vickers1">[52]</xref> Further studies are required to understand the interplay of an investigator's motivation, opportunity, and ability to share their raw datasets <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0018657-Siemsen1">[53]</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0018657-Tucker1">[54]</xref>. In the mean time, we can make some guesses: As is appropriate, concerns about privacy of human subjects' data undoubtedly affect a researcher's willingness and ability (perceived or actual) to share raw study data. I do not presume to recommend a proper balance between privacy and the societal benefit of data sharing, but I will emphasize that researchers should assess the degree of re-identification risk on a study-by-study basis <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0018657-Malin1">[55]</xref>, evaluate the risks and benefits across the wide range of stakeholder interests <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0018657-Foster1">[56]</xref>, and consider an ethical framework to make these difficult decisions <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0018657-Navarro1">[57]</xref>. Learning how to make these decisions well is difficult: it is vital that we educate and mentor both new and experienced researchers in best practices. Given the low risk of re-identification through gene expression microarray data (illustrated by its inclusion in the Open-Access Data Tier at <ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="http://target.cancer.gov/dataportal/access/policy.asp">http://target.cancer.gov/dataportal/access/policy.asp</ext-link>), data-sharing rates could also be low for reasons other than privacy. Cancer researchers may perceive their field as particularly competitive, or cancer studies may have relatively strong links to industry – two attributes previously associated with data withholding <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0018657-Blumenthal2">[58]</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0018657-Vogeli1">[59]</xref>.</p><p>NIH funding levels were associated with increased prevalence of data sharing, though the overall probability of sharing remains low even in well-funded studies. Data sharing was infrequent even in studies funded by grants clearly covered by the NIH Data Sharing Policy, such as those that received more than one million dollars per year and were awarded or renewed since 2006. This result is consistent with reports that the NIH Data Sharing Policy is often not taken seriously because compliance is not enforced <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0018657-Tucker1">[54]</xref>. It is surprising how infrequently the NIH Data Sharing Policy applies to gene expression microarray studies (19% as per a pilot to this study <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0018657-Piwowar4">[60]</xref>). The NIH may address these issues soon within its renewed commitment to make data more available <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0018657-Wellcome1">[61]</xref>.</p><p>I am intrigued that publishing in an open access journal, previously sharing gene expression data, and previously reusing gene expression data were associated with data sharing outcomes. More research is required to understand the drivers behind this association. Does the factor represent an attitude towards “openness” by the decision-making authors? Does the act of sharing data lower the perceived effort of sharing data again? Does it dispel fears induced by possible negative outcomes from sharing data? To what extent does recognizing the value of shared data through data reuse motivate an author to share his or her own datasets?</p><p>People often wonder whether the attitude towards data sharing varies with age. Although I was not able to capture author age, I did estimate the number of years since first and last authors had published their first paper. The analysis suggests that first authors with many years in the field are less likely to share data than those with fewer years of experience, but no such association was found for last authors. More work is needed to confirm this finding given the confounding factor of previous data-sharing experience.</p><p>Gene expression publications associated with Stanford University have a very high level of data sharing. The true level of open data archiving is actually much higher than that reflected in this study: Stanford University hosts a public microarray repository, and many articles that did not have a dataset link from GEO or ArrayExpress do mention submission to the Stanford Microarray Database. If one were looking for a community on which to model best practices for data sharing adoption, Stanford would be a great place to start.</p><p>Similarly, <italic>Physiological Genomics</italic> has very high rates of public archiving relative to other journals. Perhaps not coincidentally, to my knowledge <italic>Physiological Genomics</italic> is the only journal to have published an evaluation of their author's attitudes and experiences following the adoption of new data archiving requirements for gene expression microarray data <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0018657-Ventura1">[21]</xref>.</p><p>Analyzing data sharing through bibliometric and data-mining attributes has several advantages: We can look at a very large set of studies and attributes, our results are not biased by survey response self-selection or reporting bias, and the analysis can be repeated over time with little additional effort.</p><p>However, this approach does suffer its own limitations. Filters for identifying microarray creation studies do not have perfect precision, so some non-data-creation studies may be included in the analysis. Because studies that do not create data will not have data deposits, their inclusion alters the composition of what I consider to be studies that create but do not share data. Furthermore, my method for detecting data deposits overlooks data deposits that are missing PubMed identifiers in GEO and ArrayExpress, so the dataset misclassifies some studies that did in fact share their data in these repositories.</p><p>I made decisions to facilitate analysis, such as assuming that PubMed identifiers were monotonically increasing with publication date and using the current journal data-sharing policy as a surrogate for the data-sharing policy in place when papers were published. These decisions may have introduced errors.</p><p>Missing data may have obscured important information. For example, articles published in journals with policies that I did not examine had a lower rate of data sharing than articles published in journals whose “Instructions to Authors” policies I did quantify. It is likely that a more comprehensive analysis of journal data-sharing policies would provide additional insight. Similarly, the information on funders was limited: I only included funding data on NIH grants. Inclusion of more funders would help us understand the general role of funder policy and funding levels.</p><p>Previous work <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0018657-Blumenthal2">[58]</xref> found that investigator gender was correlated with data withholding. It is important to look at gender in multivariate analysis since male scientists are more likely than women to have large NIH grants <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0018657-Hosek1">[62]</xref>. Because gender did not contribute heavily to any of the derived factors in this study, additional analysis will be necessary to investigate its association with data sharing behaviour in this dataset. It should be noted that the source of gender data has limitations. The Baby Name Guesser algorithm empirically estimates gender by analyzing popular usage on the internet. Although coverage across names from diverse ethnicities seems quite good, the algorithm is relatively unsuccessful in determining the gender of Asian names. This may have confounded the gender analysis, and the “gender not found” variable might have served as an unexpected proxy for author ethnicity.</p><p>The Author-ity system provides accurate author publication histories: A previous evaluation on a different sample found that only 0.5% of publication histories erroneously included more than one author, and about 2% of clusters contained a partial inventory of an author's publication history due to splitting a given author across multiple clusters <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0018657-Torvik1">[46]</xref>. However, because the lumping does not occur randomly, my attributes based on author publication histories may have included some bias. For example, the documented tendency of Author-ity to erroneously lump common Japanese names <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0018657-Torvik1">[46]</xref> may have confounded the author-history variables with author-ethnicity and thereby influenced the findings on first-author age and experience.</p><p>In previous work I used h-index and a-index metrics to measure “author experience” for both the first and last author <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0018657-Piwowar4">[60]</xref> (in biomedicine, customarily, the first and last authors make the largest contributions to a study and have the most power in publication decisions). A recent paper <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0018657-Bornmann1">[63]</xref> suggests that a raw count of number of papers and number of citations is functionally equivalent to the h-index and a-index, so I used the raw counts in this study for computational simplicity. Reliance on citations from PubMed Central (to enable scripted data collection) meant that older studies and those published in areas less well represented in PubMed Central were characterized by an artificially low citation count.</p><p>The large sample of 11,603 studies captured a fairly diverse and representative subset of gene expression microarray studies, though it is possible that gene expression microarray studies missed by the full-text filter differed in significant ways from those that used mainstream vocabulary to describe their wetlab methods. Selecting a sample based on queries of non-subscription full-text content may have introduced a slight bias towards open access journals. It is worth noting that this study demonstrates the value of open access and open full-text resources for research evaluation.</p><p>In regression studies it is important to remember that associations do not imply causation. It is possible, for example, that receiving a high level of NIH funding and deciding to share data are not causally related, but rather result from the exposure and excitement inherent in a “hot” subfield of study.</p><p>Importantly, this study did not consider directed sharing, such as peer-to-peer data exchange or sharing within a defined collaboration network, and thus underestimates the amount of data sharing in all its forms. Furthermore, this study underestimated public sharing of gene expression data on the Internet. It did not recognize data listed in journal supplementary information, on lab or personal web sites, or in institutional or specialized repositories (including the well-regarded and well-populated Stanford Microarray Database). Finally, the study methods did not recognize deposits into the Gene Expression Omnibus or ArrayExpress unless the database entry was accompanied by a citation to the research paper, complete with PubMed identifier.</p><p>Due to these limitations, care should be taken in interpreting the estimated levels of absolute data sharing and the data-sharing status of any particular study listed in the raw data. More research is needed to attain a deep understanding of information behaviour around research data sharing, its costs and benefits to science, society and individual investigators, and what makes for effective policy.</p><p>That said, the results presented here argue for action. Even in a field with mature policies, repositories and standards, research data sharing levels are low and increasing only slowly, and data is least available in areas where it could make the biggest impact. Let's learn from those with high rates of sharing and work to embrace the full potential of our research output.</p><sec id="s4a"><title>Availability of dataset, statistical scripts, and data collection source code</title><p>Raw data and statistical scripts are available in the Dryad data repository at <underline>doi:10.5061/dryad.mf1sd</underline> <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pone.0018657-Piwowar5">[64]</xref>.
