Abstract:

Introduction:
Presentations derived from research and clinical work by students enrolled in health sciences programs are common. However, departments and faculties are aware of archived papers from graduated students that were not disseminated at conferences, colloquiums, academic seminars, symposiums, fairs, or academic meetings. The presentation of these papers by students in training is a complex issue that requires ethical and academic considerations, and there is not currently a study on the subject in literature. The dissemination of knowledge is essential for the growth of the field, and failure to do so prevents the integration of achievements and conclusions into the field of study and limits the enrichment of the discipline with techniques and case management for using alternative therapies.

Objective:
To conduct a literature review that includes considerations related to feasibility, ethics, and relevance, which will clarify the appropriate way to disseminate work with presentations that appear to be lost in archives and/or even in the personal digital logs of students who have already graduated.

Methods:
A systematic literature review was conducted to identify relevant studies on the presentation of archived research work by students in training. The search was performed using electronic databases, including PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar, using keywords such as presentation of archived research, dissemination of archived research, ethics of presenting archived research, feasibility of presenting archived research, and relevance of presenting archived research.

Results:
No studies were found specifically addressing the use of files from graduated students for health field presentations by students in training, but there are important features to consider: it is essential to obtain clear authorization from the authors who conceived and archived the initial work, as well as to give them recognition in the work. The student in training must add value to the original work, implying a critical analysis of the original work, identifying shortcomings, limitations, and strengths. This enables them to contribute to the construction of an original work with ideas, perspectives, approaches, and alternatives that may enrich the knowledge in the initial work. Presenting papers derived from archived research work prevents the loss of valuable information, promotes recognition of the original author and collaborating author, improves the visibility and prestige of the authors' educational institution, and enhances the advancement of knowledge in the field.

Conclusion:
Presenting papers derived from files from graduated students´ and presented by students in training is possible and prevents the loss of knowledge from work carried out by graduates, thereby contributing to the advancement of knowledge in the area and enhancing the recognition of the authors and the study center where the study originated and was completed.
