Article Synopsis
- The APDR conducted a 2023 survey to analyze the impact of COVID-19 on residency program management, focusing on recruitment and education experiences among programs.
- A total of 124 out of 393 active members responded, revealing that 83% found preference signaling helpful for interview offers, and 96% performed virtual interviews, with many planning to continue this format.
- The results indicate a strong inclination toward maintaining virtual recruitment practices and a general acceptance of implementing a universal interview release date, highlighting the perceived benefits of preference signaling.
Article Synopsis
- The APDR conducts an annual survey to explore the effects of COVID-19 on residency program management, focusing on recruitment and education.
- The 2023 survey invited all 393 APDR members to share their experiences through a 45-question format, with a 32% response rate.
- Key findings reveal challenges such as faculty burnout and a preference for in-person sessions over remote learning, alongside varying assessments of residents' procedural competence.
Objectives: This study was intended to establish normal values for velocities in the hepatic artery and portal veins in pediatric patients after total pancreatectomy and islet autotransplantation (TPIAT).
Methods: A retrospective review was performed of liver Doppler studies in pediatric patients after TPIAT over 6 years at an academic children's hospital. Doppler velocities in the liver vasculature and the hepatic artery resistive index were recorded.
Dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) remains the most common mode of bone mineral density (BMD) evaluation. In adults, presence of a lumbar spine (LS) BMD T-score discrepancy (>1 SD difference between adjacent vertebrae) can indicate a vertebral fracture. In children, however, the clinical significance of such discrepancies is unknown.

Objective: This study describes and quantifies incidental findings observed in the mother during fetal MRI.
Materials And Methods: We reviewed all fetal MRI studies at the University of Minnesota Medical Center from February 2008 to September 2014.
