Demographic Factors and Burnout Outcomes Associated With Disability Status Uncertainty in U.S. Medical Students
The Intersection of Disability, Race, Ethnicity, and Financial Background on Food Insecurity Among Medical Students
Timing of Disability Diagnosis and Accommodations During Medical School by First-Generation Status, Race, Ethnicity, and Gender
Centering a Justice-Based Approach to Disability Inclusion in Medical Education
Despite institutional efforts to promote diversity and inclusion, medical education continues to marginalize students with disabilities through persistent structural, cultural, and procedural barriers. Inaccessible learning environments, inadequate accommodations, and entrenched ableist attitudes contribute to inequitable educational experiences and outcomes for disabled students. These barriers are further compounded for individuals who hold int…
Emergency Care Access Based on a Proposed CMS National Quality Measure
This cross-sectional study uses a national electronic health record–derived dataset to characterize the proposed Centers for Medicare & Medicaid national quality measure for emergency care access
Letters of Reference in the Current Era
Letters of reference (LORs) are a common component of the application process for residency training programs. With the United States Medical Licensing Examination Step 1 transitioning to pass/fail grading and with the increasing use of holistic review, the potential role of LORs is rising in importance. Among some key benefits are the ability to provide a broader and more holistic view of applicants, which can include highlighting elements of ex…
How Does ChatGPT Perform on the United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE)? The Implications of Large Language Models for Medical Education and Knowledge Assessment
BACKGROUND: Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer (ChatGPT) is a 175-billion-parameter natural language processing model that can generate conversation-style responses to user input. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate the performance of ChatGPT on questions within the scope of the United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE) Step 1 and Step 2 exams, as well as to analyze responses for user interpretability. METHODS: We used 2 sets o…
Peter H. W. Lau. The Book of Ruth
Robert L. Hubbard’s 1988 commentary on the book of Ruth for the old NICOT series is a superb treatment of this biblical book; it has served well a generation of Old Testament students. Peter H. W. Lau’s commentary on Ruth is a fresh and engaging exposition of Ruth, undertaken for the new NICOT series at Hubbard’s suggestion. Its strengths are many.A fifty-nine-page introduction addresses nine areas of interest: structure and message, genre, autho…
Attila Bodor. The Theological Profile of the Peshitta of Isaiah
This volume on the Peshitta text of Isaiah (hereafter, P-Isa) originated as a doctoral dissertation written under the supervision of Craig E. Morrison at the Pontifical Biblical Institute in Rome, now revised for inclusion in the series Supplements to the Textual History of the Bible. Prior studies of the Peshitta Old Testament have mainly focused on its character as a text-critical witness and the translation techniques adopted by its translator…
Ensuring Fairness in Medical Education Assessment
We have reached an inflection point in medical education’s commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). The challenge we face—and will continue to face for the foreseeable future—is to keep moving forward despite the impediments, including a health care system and workforce depleted by the pandemic and by ongoing political, social, economic, legislative, and legal pressures that make it difficult to act. But in difficult times such as th…
Piloting web-based structural competency modules among internal medicine residents and graduate students in public health
Introduction Fewer than half of internal medicine program directors report any health disparities curriculum. We piloted a web-based healthcare disparities module among internal medicine (IM) residents to test effectiveness and feasibility, compared to a convenient sample of graduate students enrolled in a public health equity course. Methods IM residents participated in an in-person session (module 1: introduction to racial and ethnic health dis…
The Creation of Classism in Medical Education
Previous research has noted that first-generation, low-income (FGLI) medical students experience “everyday forms of classism” because their social backgrounds are different from the typical medical student. 1,2 The reason for this difference is often described as FGLI students not having the right social capital 3 in the elite profession of medicine. 4 This study argues that not just any social capital creates classism in medical education, but s…
Trends in U.S. MD–PhD Program Matriculant Diversity by Sex and Race/Ethnicity
A consistent and sustained increase in the percentage of female and URM matriculants to MD-PhD programs from AYs 2009-2018 was observed, but the annual increases in the percentages across groups were small, and the demographics of the MD-PhD workforce still do not reflect the diversity of the U.S. general population
Professional Identity Formation Among Diverse U.S. Medical Students
Professional identity formation (PIF) is described as “a multifactorial phenomenon, shaped by ways that clinical and non-clinical experiences, expectations and environmental factors merge with individual values, beliefs and obligations.” 1 Data suggest that students’ personal characteristics factor in the PIF process. 2,3 This study examined how socioeconomic status (SES) (measured by generation college status [first-generation college graduate (…
Daniel 11 Decoded
Nowhere is the enigmatic nature of the book of Daniel more evident than in its 11th chapter. This puzzling section, part of a unit that begins with ch. 10 and continues through ch. 12, is replete with descriptions that baffle and frustrate the best of exegetes and interpreters. Not only are specific details in the chapter difficult to interpret but exegetes also disagree on a viable hermeneutical approach to the chapter. Does Daniel 11 mainly des…
Demographic Differences in Medical Students’ Perceptions of Respect for Diversity Among Faculty
Faculty role modeling is critical to medical students’ professional development to provide culturally adept, patient-centered care. The behaviors displayed by faculty can directly influence students’ attitudes and behaviors and is considered a part of the “hidden curriculum.” 1 However, little is known about students’ perceptions of faculty role modeling of respect for diversity. The purpose of our study was to examine the perceptions of faculty …
A data-driven classification of outcome behaviors in those who cause concern to British public figures
Fixated individuals pose a significant threat to public figures. Previous research compares individuals labeled ‘approachers’ to those labeled ‘communicators.’ Typically, such studies compare a number of risk factors among the two groups to identify significant differences. This has impactful implications for the threat assessment and management of the pathologically fixated. The present study builds upon this established body of work by consider…
Men of Color in America—An Endangered Species
It was a snowy day but my clinic was open for business. I had a new patient—a 23-year-old man—on my schedule. Based on his age and the inclement weather, I assumed he would not come to the appointment. To my surprise, he came early. When I entered the examination room, he was sitting up straight, wearing a do-rag, a thick gold necklace, and a white short-sleeve T-shirt that showed off his well-defined musculature. His arms rested by his side with…
