Pregnancy and child health outcomes in pediatric and young adult leukemia and lymphoma survivors: a systematic review.

As long-term survival is high for children and young adults diagnosed with leukemia and lymphoma, delineating maternal, fetal and offspring health risks is important to their family planning. This systematic review examined data comparing these health risks between leukemia and lymphoma survivors and women without a history of cancer. Following a search of Embase, PubMed, CINAHL, Cochrane, and Web of Science, 142 articles were screened and 18 were included in this review.

Effect of resident evaluations of obstetrics and gynecology faculty on promotion.

Background: Promotion for academic faculty depends on a variety of factors, including their research, publications, national leadership, and quality of their teaching.

Objective: We sought to determine the importance of resident evaluations of faculty for promotion in obstetrics-gynecology programs.

Methods: A 28-item questionnaire was developed and distributed to 185 department chairs of US obstetrics-gynecology residency programs.

Postinterview Communication between Obstetrics and Gynecology Residency Programs and Candidates.

Introduction: Residency programs seek to match the best candidates with their positions. To avoid ethical conflicts in this process, the National Residency Matching Program (NRMP or Match) has rules regarding appropriate conduct, including guidelines on contact between candidates and programs. Our study examined communication between obstetrics and gynecology (Ob-Gyn) programs and residency candidates after interviewing and prior to ranking.
