Background: Sexual and gender minority (SGM) individuals experience high rates of harassment discrimination when seeking healthcare, which contributes to substantial healthcare disparities. Improving physician training about identity, sexual orientation, the needs SGM patients has been identified as a critical strategy for mitigating these In 2014, Association American Medical Colleges (AAMC) published medical education competencies guide undergraduate on topics.Objective: Conduct pilot...
Objective: To understand the role of racial residential segregation on Black-White disparities in breast cancer presentation, treatment, and outcomes. Summary Background Data: Racial treatment outcomes are well documented. Black individuals present at advanced stage, less likely to receive appropriate surgical adjuvant have lower overall stage-specific survival relative White individuals. Methods: Using data from Surveillance, Epidemiology, End Results program, we performed a retrospective...
Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to dramatically alter healthcare by enhancing how we diagnosis and treat disease. One promising AI model is ChatGPT, a large general-purpose language trained OpenAI. The chat interface shown robust, human-level performance on several professional academic benchmarks. We sought probe its stability over time surgical case questions.
Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) is a severe complication of SARS-CoV-2 infection. It remains unclear how MIS-C phenotypes vary across variants. We aimed to investigate clinical characteristics and outcomes eras.
At the annual National Football League (NFL) Scouting Combine, medical staff of each NFL franchise performs a comprehensive evaluation all athletes potentially entering NFL.

Medical records imaging reports examined. Game...
Background: Several conditions exist that do not have their own unique diagnosis code in widely-used clinical terminologies, making them difficult to track and study. Acute severe ulcerative colitis (ASUC) is one such condition. There no automated method identify patients admitted for ASUC from observational data, nor any specific billing or ASUC. Accurate, automated, large-scale identification of hospital admissions non-coded like may enable further research into them. Methods: We performed...
To investigate accuracy of ICD-9/10 billing codes in a multicenter cohort. Health services research on appendicitis often relies administrative databases. However, may misclassify disease severity, as we demonstrated previously single institution study. We performed study adult patients with who presented to one six US medical centers during 2012-2015 (ICD-9 era) and 2018-2021 (ICD-10 era). Patients were identified based ICD codes. Diagnosis was confirmed via chart review. Each patient...
Recognition and proper treatment of glenoid bone loss (GBL) are important for successful management anterior shoulder instability. Although GBL has been described as the amount bony from front glenoid, there is also a fragment that usually displaced often undergoes attrition. Thus, due to attritional (ABL) fragment, insufficient left fully reconstruct glenoid.To (1) evaluate ABL in recurrent instability (2) correlate with clinical history, size, radiographic findings.Cross-sectional study;...
Background: Lisfranc injuries are challenging to treat and may have a detrimental effect on athletic performance.

Methods: All players who sustained injury prior Combine evaluation between 2009 2015 were...
Background Post–COVID-19 condition (colloquially known as “long COVID-19”) characterized postacute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 has no universal clinical case definition. Recent efforts have focused on understanding long COVID-19 symptoms, and electronic health record (EHR) data provide a unique resource for this condition. The introduction the International Classification Diseases, Tenth Revision (ICD-10) code U09.9 “Post condition, unspecified” to identify patients with provided method...
