Across academic medicine, and particularly among faculty medical school leadership, the status quo is unacceptable when it comes to gender diversity, equity, inclusion. The Association of American Medical Colleges has launched a bold equity initiative, endorsed by its Board Directors, implore institutions take meaningful effective actions. Defining what progress should look like guide these actions worth deeper exploration. It not enough measure representation different genders at various...
The mistreatment of learners is an ongoing issue at U.S. medical schools. According to responses the 2017 Association American Medical Colleges Graduation Questionnaire, 39.3% students nationally reported being mistreated.

Abstract: Many innovative strategies have been developed over the years to improve recruitment and retention of physicians in shortage areas rural America. These met with varying success. Postresidency education, or fellowship training, for family is yet another strategy that has same purpose. Most applicants interested obstetrical health programs as a means preparing practice. This paper describes these (demographics, funding, applicant pool, curriculum) reviews their graduate outcomes...
Developing multimodal virtual reality simulations, serious games, or interactive media, requires interdisciplinary teams responsible for the technological, artistic, and instructional content development integration. In medical simulation, allows developing immersive simulations that can be used to complement current training tools including printed, multimedia, manikin simulators. One of major limitations associated with is lack haptic feedback given complexity requirements high-end...

This article presents a novel video dataset featuring subjective evaluations, for analyzing performance of models predicting quality experience. Dataset Videos were distorted by modifying three service parameters upon transmission over an emulated IP network environment. We obtained 60 videos from 4 original source videos. The criteria selection reference videos, the evaluation experiment, and statistical treatment results. Results evidence impact in observer-perceived quality. is publicly...
Objective: Adrenal myelolipoma is an infrequent benign tumor. Myelolipoma represents 2,6-3 % of all adrenal incidentalomas. This tumor more frequent in aged individuals. Our aim was to evaluate the prevalence of in patients with adrenal incidentaloma detected by abdominal computed tomography (CT) during 1 year at a university tertiary care hospital. Methods: Retrospective study. All CT done at Hospital Universitario San Vicente Fundacion, Medellin, Colombia, or without contrast,...
