%X Objective: To determine the conversion rate of specialization in medicine theses into full-text journal articles in medical ecology and hydroclimatology. Material and Method: National Thesis Center was searched using ¡°Medical Ecology and Climatology¡± as the subject and ¡°Specialization in Medicine¡± as the thesis type. The Web of Science, TR Dizin, Dergi Park, At£¿f Dizini, Pubmed, Google Scholar and Google databases were searched to identify the publications produced from theses. Results: A total of 24 theses were identified. The years of the theses ranged from 1980 to 2017. The 3 theses (20.00%) among the 15 theses between 1980 and 2002, and 4 (44.44%) theses among the 9 theses between 2009 and 2017 resulted in publication. Hence, overall, 7 (29.17%) out of 24 theses resulted in publication as a full-text article in a peer-reviewed journal. In all publications, the thesis author was the first author. Six theses were published in the journals indexed in Science Citation Index-Expanded (SCI-E). In these articles, the mean time to online publication was 3.00¡À1.83 years. Conclusion: A quarter of the theses in medical ecology and hydroclimatology specialty were published in SCI-E journals; however, the rate has nearly reached to the half of the theses in the last decade
