This study aimed to assess diabetes health information found on TikTok and quantify misinformation on TikTok.

Introduction: Medical education imposes a financial burden on trainees. Given that cost-of-living varies across geographical regions, understanding its relationship with resident compensation can inform about the finances of residents. We investigated: (1) How does compensation for orthopaedic surgery residents vary across regions? (2) How does compensation for orthopaedic surgery residents vary with respect to cost of living?

Material And Methods: Using the American Medical Association FREIDA database, we collected weekly work hours, location, program type, moonlight allowance, and geographic region for 190 nonmilitary orthopaedic programs.
