Delays in Care by Race, Ethnicity, and Gender Before and During the COVID-19 Pandemic Using Cross-Sectional Data From the National Institutes of Health's All of Us Research Program.

Purpose: Delays in receiving medical care are an urgent problem. This study aims to determine whether the odds of, and reasons for, experiencing care delays differ by gender, race-ethnicity, and survey completion before versus during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional analysis of survey data from participants age ≥18 in the National Institutes of Health's All of Us Research Program collected from May 6, 2018, to January 1, 2022.

National Institutes of Health Diversity Supplement Awards by Medical School.

Background: Increasing medical school faculty diversity is an urgent priority. National Institutes of Health (NIH) diversity supplements, which provide funding and career development opportunities to individuals underrepresented in research, are an important mechanism to increase faculty diversity.

Objective: Analyze diversity supplement utilization by medical schools.

Association of Marginalized Identities With Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Society and Gold Humanism Honor Society Membership Among Medical Students.

Importance: Disparities in medical student membership in Alpha Omega Alpha (AOA) are well documented. Less is known about Gold Humanism Honor Society (GHHS) membership and it remains unknown how the intersection of different identities is associated with membership in these honor societies.

Objective: To examine the association between honor society membership and medical student race and ethnicity, sex, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersection of identities.

Myoclonic status epilepticus after severe hyperthermia in a patient with coronavirus disease 2019.

Myoclonic status epilepticus (MSE) is a sign of severe neurologic injury in cardiac arrest patients. To our knowledge, MSE has not been described as a result of prolonged hyperpyrexia. A 56-yearold man with coronavirus disease 2019 presented with acute respiratory distress syndrome, septic/hypovolemic shock, and presumed community-acquired pneumonia.

Burnout and Perception of Medical School Learning Environments Among Gay, Lesbian, and Bisexual Medical Students.

Importance: The perspectives of gay, lesbian, bisexual (sexual minority [SM]) students about their medical school learning environment and how they relate to burnout is poorly understood.

Objective: To understand SM medical students' perceptions of the medical school learning environment and how this is associated with reported burnout.

Design, Setting, And Participants: This cross-sectional study included medical students graduating from Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC)-accredited allopathic US medical schools in 2016 and 2017 and responding to the AAMC Graduation Questionnaire.

Marginalized identities, mistreatment, discrimination, and burnout among US medical students: cross sectional survey and retrospective cohort study.

Objective: To describe the association between mistreatment, burnout, and having multiple marginalized identities during undergraduate medical education.

Design: Cross sectional survey and retrospective cohort study.

Setting: 140 US medical schools accredited by the Association of American Medical Colleges.

Design of a Novel Online, Modular, Flipped-classroom Surgical Curriculum for East, Central, and Southern Africa.

Objective: We describe a structured approach to developing a standardized curriculum for surgical trainees in East, Central, and Southern Africa (ECSA).

Summary Background Data: Surgical education is essential to closing the surgical access gap in ECSA. Given its importance for surgical education, the development of a standardized curriculum was deemed necessary.

NIH Diversity Supplement Awards by Year and Administering Institute.

This study charts the use of the National Institutes of Health’s diversity supplements, grant enhancement awards designed to provide research opportunities to individuals from underrepresented racial or ethnic groups, since the program’s inception in 1989.

Assessment of the Prevalence of Medical Student Mistreatment by Sex, Race/Ethnicity, and Sexual Orientation.

Importance: Previous studies have shown that medical student mistreatment is common. However, few data exist to date describing how the prevalence of medical student mistreatment varies by student sex, race/ethnicity, and sexual orientation.

Objective: To examine the association between mistreatment and medical student sex, race/ethnicity, and sexual orientation.

Perceptions Regarding Mentorship Among General Surgery Trainees With Academic Career Intentions.

Objective: Effective mentorship may be an opportunity to mitigate career de-prioritization, improve stress management, and bolster professional growth. Relatively few studies address specific challenges that occur for general surgery trainees. We conducted a focus group-based investigation to determine facilitators/barriers to effective mentorship among general surgery residents, who are intending to pursue an academic career.

Concomitant Thyroid Cancer in Patients with Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type 1 Undergoing Surgery for Primary Hyperparathyroidism.

Background: Compared to those with sporadic primary hyperparathyroidism (SPHP), multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (MPHP) typically require more extensive dissection and have higher recurrence rates. Little is known about the risk of concomitant thyroid cancer in either setting. This study aimed to determine the rates and characteristics of thyroid cancer for MPHP versus SPHP patients undergoing parathyroidectomy.

Implementing the Trauma Evaluation and Management (TEAM) Course in Kenya.

Background: Trauma training provides crucial knowledge and skills for health-care providers in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Although such training has been adapted for physicians and emergency personnel in LMICs, few courses have been offered for medical students. The Trauma Evaluation and Management (TEAM) course, developed by the American College of Surgeons, provides a valuable framework for providing this content to medical students in an LMIC-context.

A qualitative study of gender differences in the experiences of general surgery trainees.

Background: Women surgeons continue to face unique challenges to professional advancement. Higher attrition rates and lower confidence among female surgical residents suggest that experiences during residency differ by gender. Few studies have investigated gender-specific experiences during training.

How can surgeons facilitate resident intraoperative decision-making?

Background: Cognitive skills such as decision-making are critical to developing operative autonomy. We explored resident decision-making using a recollection of specific examples, from the attending surgeon and resident, after laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Methods: In a separate semi-structured interview, the attending and resident both answered five questions, regarding the resident's operative roles and decisions, ways the attending helped, times when the attending operated, and the effect of the relationship between attending and resident.
