Historically, there has been a relative paucity of applicants to infectious disease fellowships. This leads to a significant number of programs being unfilled in the fellowship match. We sought to identify predictors of a program filling all positions offered in the match through retrospective review of available match and program data for the 2019-2021 match cycles. In the 2021 match, hospital and research rankings were associated with filling, as were offering specialized training tracks and having an active Twitter account. Knowledge of these associations can help programs direct resources to optimize recruitment and enrichment of infectious disease fellows.

Methods: Data from January 1, 2013, to December 31, 2023 (11 years) were compiled for all American Red Cross blood donations to evaluate demographics/characteristics and longitudinal trends in donors testing syphilis reactive/positive.

Time-dependent recovery of renal impairment in patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma.

Department of Hematology and Oncology, Japanese Red Cross Narita Hospital, Narita, Japan.
Renal impairment is reported in 20%-50% of patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma and is known as a poor prognostic factor. Although several studies have demonstrated that treatment with novel antimyeloma agents improves renal impairment and myeloma itself, the time-dependent clinical course of recovery of renal function has not been extensively studied. We retrospectively collected the data of characteristics and outcomes in consecutive unselected patients diagnosed with and treated for symptomatic multiple myeloma between January 2015 and December 2022, and extracted and analyzed the cases with renal impairment.
