Research experience is mandatory for all Orthopaedic Surgery residency programs. Although the allocation of required protected time and resources varies from program to program, the underlying importance of research remains consistent with mutual benefit to both residents and the program and faculty. Authorship and publications have become the standard metric used to evaluate academic success. This study aimed to determine if there is a correlation between the research productivity of Orthopaedic Surgery trainees and their subsequent research productivity as attending Orthopaedic Surgeons.
Using the University of Mississippi Orthopaedic Residency Program Research Productivity Rank List, 30 different Orthopaedic Surgery Residency Programs were analyzed for the names of every graduating surgeon in their 2013 class. PubMed Central was used to screen all 156 physicians and collect all publications produced by them between 2008 and August 2022. Results were separated into two categories: Publications during training and Publications post-training.
As defined above, 156 Surgeons were analyzed for publications during training and post-training. The mean number of publications was 7.02 ± 17.819 post-training vs. 2.47 ± 4.313 during training, < 0.001. The range of publication post-training was 0-124 vs. 0-30 during training. Pearson correlation between the two groups resulted in a value of 0.654, < 0.001.
Higher research productivity while training correlates to higher productivity post-training, but overall Orthopaedic surgeons produce more research after training than during. With the growing importance of research, more mentorship, time, and resources must be dedicated to research to instill and foster greater participation while in training.
研究经历是所有骨科住院医师培训项目的必备条件。尽管各项目所需的受保护时间和资源分配有所不同，但研究的根本重要性对于住院医师、项目以及教员而言始终是互利的。作者身份和发表论文已成为评估学术成就的标准指标。本研究旨在确定骨科住院医师培训学员的研究产出与其随后作为骨科主治医生时的研究产出之间是否存在相关性。
利用密西西比大学骨科住院医师培训项目研究产出排名列表，对30个不同的骨科住院医师培训项目2013届每位毕业外科医生的姓名进行分析。使用PubMed Central筛选所有156名医生，并收集他们在2008年至2022年8月期间发表的所有论文。结果分为两类：培训期间发表的论文和培训后发表的论文。
如上所述，对156名外科医生培训期间和培训后的论文发表情况进行了分析。培训后的平均论文发表数量为7.02±17.819篇，而培训期间为2.47±4.313篇，P<0.001。培训后发表论文数量范围为0至124篇，而培训期间为0至30篇。两组之间的Pearson相关性值为0.654，P<0.001。
培训期间较高的研究产出与培训后较高的产出相关，但总体而言，骨科医生培训后发表的研究比培训期间更多。随着研究的重要性日益增加，必须投入更多的指导、时间和资源用于研究，以在培训期间灌输并促进更多的参与。
