Hi everyone,

Building on @splik's two "100 Papers" posts (available here and here), I thought I would share my own collection of papers that I've accumulated over the course of training. These papers include @splik's two collections as well as papers I've collected from our didactics, my own curiosity, presentations, and paper-writing. There are 534 articles currently in this collection. Some topics are more heavily represented than others - for example, articles on medical education, topics relevant to inpatient psychiatry, ECT, and consult psychiatry are heavily represented as these are topics that I'm interested and/or relevant to my own work. A few other areas are quite lean, and I could certainly use your help in flushing out these topics.

I've become a heavy Zotero user, so I created a public group on Zotero to share these papers. While the PDFs aren't available, Zotero collects article metadata and links directly to the article on the journal's website, so if you're on your academic network you shouldn't have any trouble accessing the papers, assuming your library grants you access. Some of the article citations may be missing this information, but I've done my best with making sure that the metadata is present and accurate, so not having direct links and/or accurate metadata should be a rare problem. While I have all of the PDFs to these papers, I'm leery of sharing them on a public forum due to copyright issues. You should be able to access the group even if you aren't a Zotero user and/or don't have a Zotero account.

If anyone also uses Zotero and is interested in serving as a "group admin" with the ability to add to the collection, please PM me or post here and I'd be happy to add you. At present, I'm the only one that's able to make changes to the collection as I don't want a random troll to come through and destroy the organization or otherwise screw things up. I should note that if your Zotero account information uses your real name, you will lose your anonymity as your name will be associated with any changes you make to the article collection. However, if you PM me no one (other than, potentially, me) would be able to link your real name to your SDN username unless you decide to identify yourself. Obviously, I would keep your information private if you do decide to PM me.

You can access the shared library here: Zotero | Groups > SDN Psychiatry Articles > Library. Articles are sorted into broad category folders to make finding things easier, though you can also search for articles within the collection. If you use Zotero, you can easily add individual articles to your personal collection.

Let me know what you think.
 
You’ve read 534 articles as a resident?

I've read a good chunk of them, but no, I haven't read them all. I use the RSS functionality in Zotero to follow a bunch of journals, and I get notified whenever there are updates (i.e., when a new issue of a journal is released). I check out the abstracts and see if there are any articles I may want to save in my collection; if there are, I pull the articles and add them to my collection, but unless it's something I find particularly interesting I rarely read the article in its entirety at that point.

Like I said in the original post, 200 of them are @splik's article collection. The rest I've added over the years. ~300 articles over 4 years isn't all that much, really.
 
That’s a lot while in residency lol..damn I must be a slacker
 
This is a nice collection. During training never had much time to spend reading journal articles, save for a few classics and most recent treatment guidelines, and at that career stage tended to get a lot more out of seeing and managing patients.

Would suggest adding the latest Cipriani network meta-analysis from 2018 to the mood disorders section.


Nice, great add - I've got the other Cipriani papers on antipsychotics and antimanic drugs but didn't have this one for some reason.
