Continuity of Care: A Primer for Family Medicine Residencies
This article reviews continuity of care as it applies to family medicine training programs. We discuss the various types of continuity and issues surrounding the measurement of continuity. A generally agreed upon definition of patient-sided and resident-sided continuity is presented to allow programs to begin to collect the necessary data. Especially within resident training programs, intricacies associated with maintaining continuity of care, such as empanelment, resident turnover, and scheduling, are discussed. The importance of right-sizing resident panels is highlighted, and a mechanism for accomplishing this is presen...

A Decade of IR Specialty: Introduction to this Special Issue of JVIR
Interventional radiology (IR) was recognized by the American Board of Medical Specialties (ABMS) as a unique primary specialty in 2012. The 3 pillars of the IR domain were established as diagnostic imaging, image-guided procedural expertise, and periprocedural patient care. After recognition of this specialty, the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) approved residency program requirements for IR in 2014. The American Board of Radiology (ABR) provides dual certification in IR/diagnostic radiology (DR) to qualified practitioners who pass the IR/DR certification examination.

Implications of Primary Specialty Status on the Future of IR Practice: Emphasis on Office-Based Laboratories
The American Board of Medical Specialties (ABMS) awarded primary medical specialty status to interventional radiology (IR) in 2012. Further, the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) approved IR residency program requirements in 2014. Residents who graduate from accredited programs are eligible for American Board of Radiology dual certification in both IR and diagnostic radiology (DR). IR is one of the only specialties that ensures competence in the following 3 areas: diagnostic imaging, image-guided procedural skills, and direct longitudinal patient care.

Women physicians in academic pathology leadership
CONCLUSIONS: Women in academic pathology departments are well represented in residency and overall fellowship program leadership but are underrepresented in department chair and certain pathology subspecialty leadership positions. The disproportionate number of women in department chair positions is observed across medical specialties, highlighting the need for improved gender equity among high-level academic medicine positions.PMID:37961931 | DOI:10.1093/ajcp/aqad151 (Source: American Journal of Clinical Pathology)

The role of fellowship experience in decreasing burnout for child abuse pediatricians
CONCLUSIONS: Moderate or high levels of burnout are present in a large proportion of practicing CAPs and more than one-third of participants felt that the quality of burnout training in fellowship did not meet their needs. These data support the need to more effectively address burnout education within the training experience of CAP fellows.PMID:37956502 | DOI:10.1016/j.chiabu.2023.106532 (Source: Child Abuse and Neglect)

Gender diversity in neurosurgical training: an analysis of trends and resident program characteristics
CONCLUSIONS: The underrepresentation of women in neurosurgery residency programs remains a significant issue. While some programs have achieved higher female representation than the overall average proportion of female neurosurgery residents, many still fall short. There are twice as many female PGY-1 compared with PGY-7 residents, suggesting increased recruitment over the past few years. Programs with longer accreditation histories have significantly higher proportions of female residents. Larger program size can also play a role in attracting more female residents, but geographic location did not impact gender compositio...
