Background: In the Spring of 2020, residency programs across the country experienced rapid and drastic changes to their application process as a result of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. In response, residency programs shifted to virtual events and began harnessing social media to communicate with applicants.
Aim: To analyze the changes in social media usage by orthopaedic surgery programs in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Article Synopsis
- Fellowship directors in sports medicine play a crucial role in shaping the future of orthopaedic trainees, prompting an analysis of their demographics, training, and academic backgrounds.
- The study aimed to provide insights for aspiring fellowship directors in orthopaedics and highlight areas for improvement in the field.
- Data was collected from 82 fellowship directors, revealing a predominantly male (97.5%) and Caucasian (84.15%) demographic, with an average age of 56 years and a mean H-index indicating their academic productivity.
Background: Elevated Metrorail systems differ from conventional trains by their slower speeds and collisions with pedestrians predominantly occurring at accessible stations or platforms. Here, the orthopedic implications of pedestrians struck by a Metrorail are evaluated, as were the correlations of substance abuse and psychiatric history on injury and death.
Methods: Retrospective cohort study at a single Level-1 trauma center of patients requiring admission with orthopedic injuries following Metrorail impact from 1/2004-2/2017.
Unlabelled: Study Type - Therapy (case series). Level of Evidence 4. What's known on the subject? and What does the study add? Studies in other surgical populations have found that scarring is a relatively unimportant preoperative patient consideration when compared with surgical cure and safety, but that younger age was a significant factor influencing preference for 'scarless' surgery.
