When the 2,308 residencies obtained by U.S. medical school graduates outisde of th National Intern and Resident Matching Program were added to those of the 11,172 students who matched, the distribution of all 1977 graduates among specialties was found to be essentially the same as for those who matched, but regional differences were marked. A regional comparison of the location of the residencies obtained by the graduates with the location of the schools attended by students suggested that recruitment of graduates from other regions was as important in determining the number of first-year residents as was retention of graduates in a given region.
当将美国医学院校毕业生通过非全国住院医师匹配项目获得的2308个住院医师职位，与11172名成功匹配的学生所获得的职位相加时，发现1977年所有毕业生在各专业的分布情况与成功匹配的学生基本相同，但地区差异显著。将毕业生获得住院医师职位的地点与学生就读学校的地点进行地区比较表明，从其他地区招募毕业生对于确定一年级住院医师的数量，与在特定地区留住毕业生同样重要。
