Abstract：
BACKGROUND: There are significant gaps in research output and authorship in low- and middle-income countries. Research dissemination events have the potential to help bridge this gap through knowledge transfer, institutional collaboration, and stakeholder engagement. These events may also have an impact on both clinical service delivery and policy development. King Faisal Hospital Rwanda (KFH) is a tertiary-level teaching hospital located in Kigali, Rwanda. To strengthen its research dissemination, KFH conducted an inaugural Research Day (RD) to disseminate its research activities, recognize staff and student researchers at KFH, define a research agenda for the hospital, and promote a culture of research both at KFH and in Rwanda.
METHODS: RD was coordinated by an interdisciplinary committee of clinical and non-clinical staff at KFH. Researchers were encouraged to disseminate their research across all disciplines. Abstracts were blind reviewed using a weighted rubric and ranked by overall score. Top researchers were also awarded and recognized for their work, and equity and inclusion was at the forefront of RD programming.
RESULTS: RD had over 100 attendees from KFH and other public, private, and academic institutions. Forty-seven abstracts were submitted from the call for abstracts, with the highest proportion studying cancer (17.02%) and sexual and reproductive health (10.64%). Thirty-seven researchers submitted abstracts, and most of the principal investigators were medical doctors (35.14%), allied health professionals (27.03%), and nurses and midwives (16.22%). Furthermore, 30% of principal investigators were female, with the highest proportion of them being nurses and midwives (36.36%).
CONCLUSIONS: RD is an effective way to disseminate research in a hospital setting. RD has the potential to strengthen the institution\'s research agenda, engage the community in ongoing projects, and provide content-area support to researchers. Equity and inclusion should be at the forefront of research dissemination, including gender equity, authorship representation, and the inclusion of interdisciplinary health professionals. Stakeholder engagement can also be utilized to strengthen institutional research collaboration for greater impact.

摘要：
背景：低收入和中等收入国家的研究成果和作者身份存在巨大差距。研究传播事件有可能通过知识转移来帮助弥合这一差距，机构合作，和利益相关者的参与。这些事件也可能对临床服务交付和政策制定产生影响。卢旺达国王费萨尔医院（KFH）是位于基加利的三级教学医院，卢旺达。加强其研究传播,KFH举行了首届研究日（RD）来传播其研究活动，表彰KFH的工作人员和学生研究人员，定义医院的研究议程，并在KFH和卢旺达促进研究文化。
方法：RD由KFH的临床和非临床工作人员组成的跨学科委员会协调。鼓励研究人员将他们的研究传播到所有学科。使用加权标题对摘要进行盲目审查，并按总分进行排名。顶尖的研究人员也因他们的工作而获奖和认可，公平和包容是研发规划的最前沿。
结果：RD有来自KFH和其他公众的100多名与会者，私人,和学术机构。摘要征集中提交了47份摘要，研究癌症（17.02%）和性健康和生殖健康（10.64%）的比例最高。37名研究人员提交了摘要，大部分主要调查人员是医生(35.14%)，专职医疗专业人员(27.03%),以及护士和助产士(16.22%)。此外，30%的主要调查人员是女性，其中护士和助产士比例最高(36.36%)。
结论：RD是在医院环境中传播研究的有效方法。RD有可能加强该机构的研究议程，让社区参与正在进行的项目，并为研究人员提供内容领域支持。公平和包容应该是研究传播的前沿,包括性别平等，作者代表，并纳入跨学科卫生专业人员。利益相关者的参与也可以用来加强机构研究合作，以产生更大的影响。
