Increasing Neurosurgical Resident Research Productivity Through Cultural Shift: Choosing Carrots Over Sticks.
Cureus
September 2024
Neurosurgery, Semmes Murphey Clinic, Memphis, USA.
Introduction As part of the Milestones Initiative of the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME), residents in neurosurgery are expected to participate in either clinical research or basic science research. Therefore, each neurosurgical training program must offer the support and opportunity to achieve this goal. In 2012, a structured effort to promote a resident culture of research was introduced into the authors' neurosurgery residency training curriculum.

In 2011, the Council of Podiatric Medical Education, the accrediting body of the American Podiatric Medical Association, approved the conversion of all Podiatric Residencies to 3-year surgical programs. In 2012, there were 12 podiatric fellowships recognized by the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons. To date, there are 53 programs listed under the college's website.

Article Synopsis
- Systemic immunomodulatory agents are used to treat moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis, but their use before surgery may raise the risk of infections and complications.
- The study aimed to assess the risk of surgical site infections (SSI) in patients with autoimmune diseases who are on various immunomodulatory drugs and undergoing surgery.
- Findings suggest that for low-risk surgeries, many immunomodulatory treatments, such as TNF-α inhibitors and methotrexate, can be safely continued, while for more complex surgeries, a careful evaluation is recommended before continuing their use.
A 0.05 m Change in Inertial Measurement Unit Placement Alters Time and Frequency Domain Metrics during Running.
Sensors (Basel)
January 2024
Biomedical Engineering Graduate Group, University of California Davis, Davis, CA 95616, USA.
Article Synopsis
- Inertial measurement units (IMUs) can gather extensive running biomechanics data, but their accuracy can be compromised by improper placement or movement during use.
- A study involving 74 participants tested the impact of misplacing an IMU 0.05 m away from a reference IMU located on the shank, pelvis, or sacrum, measuring how these deviations affect running data.
- Findings indicated that even small misplacements could cause significant errors in measurements such as peak forces and contact times, emphasizing the importance of correct IMU positioning for reliable biomechanics analysis.
Systematic review of topical interventions for the management of pain in chronic wounds.
Pain Rep
