Introduction: In the aftermath of the United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE) Step 1 becoming pass/fail, research has become a more important component of residency applications. Time is a finite resource, and clinicians, both academic and private practice, struggle to balance research within their schedules. We aim to provide a model to produce impactful research efficiently.

Over the past two decades, genomic sequencing (exome and genome) has proven to be critical in providing a faster and more accurate diagnosis as well as tailored treatment plans for a variety of populations. Despite its potential, disparities in access to genomic sequencing persist, predominantly among underrepresented and socioeconomically disadvantaged groups and populations. This inequity stems from factors such as: 1) high costs of sequencing, 2) significant gaps in insurance coverage, 3) limited availability of genetic services in many healthcare institutions and geographic areas, and 4) lack of diversity in genetic research and databases.

Growing recognition of the serious consequences of racism in the United States encourage organizations and agencies to move toward an anti-racist approach. Implicit racial bias trainings are one piece of the approach toward this end. While many such trainings are being conducted nationwide, it remains unclear what practices best encourage participation, engagement, and desired outcomes following implicit racial bias trainings.

Context: The goal of this review is to move beyond summarizing what is known about psychosexual development in females with classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency-commonly studied as a natural experiment to understand prenatal androgen effects in 46,XX individuals. Instead, it will explore the various aspects of the condition that significantly impact the daily lives of both male and female patients and their families, with a particular focus on the implications for psychosocial, educational, and vocational adaptation.
Evidence Acquisition: This work represents a selective, yet balanced review of papers highlighting potential threats to positive psychological adaptation in both male and female individuals with CAH.

Background: Some studies suggest that balanced solutions may improve outcomes in critical care patients. However, in patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) existing data indicate that normal saline may be preferred. We hypothesized that mortality in critically ill patients with and without TBI would differ with the use of balanced salt solutions versus normal saline.
