Residency Ranking
As a fourth year medical student I'm currently interviewing for IM programs. I am certain that I want to apply for GI in the future. I know its important to go to a university program and to find programs with GI fellowships. My question is, which is more important? After ranking those programs that are major university hospitals with GI fellowships, should I then rank those university programs without, or larger community programs WITH fellowships in the hope that they'll take their own residents? Thanks in advance for any advice (Source: Student Doctor Network Forums)

FDA Investigation Finds No Excess Bleeding Risk for Dabigatran
In its latest assessment of a highly controversial issue, the FDA has found no indication that bleeding rates for dabigatran (Pradaxa, Boehringer-Ingelheim) are any higher than the bleeding rates for warfarin. The FDA investigation was in response to the large number of post-marketing reports of bleeding in people taking dabigatran. Click here to for the full FDA statement. Here is the first paragraph of the statement: The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has evaluated new information about the risk of serious bleeding associated with use of the anticoagulants (blood thinners) dabigatran (Pradaxa) and warfarin (Co...

Bariatric arterial embolization
Still being tested on animal models but pretty exciting nonetheless. Currently, there are three clinically viable surgical alternatives for obesity: gastric bypass surgery, gastric pacing and endoscopic gastric banding. These procedures have varying success rates; they are invasive, require extensive gastric/bowel reconstruction or external devices and can have significant surgical complications, explained Charles Y. Kim, M.D., assistant professor of radiology at Duke University Medical Center in Durham, N.C., and lead investigator on one of the studies. Our promising results led us to believe that a minimally...

Specific tests of gastrointestinal function
Esophageal motility study Functional disorders of the esophagus can be identified with esophageal motility studies(manometry). For these studies, a pressure-sensing tube is swallowed and positioned within the esophagus. Contractions of the esophageal muscle normally cause increases in pressure within the esophagus that can be monitored by the catheter during and between swallows of water. Among the abnormalities that can be seen are abnormally high or abnormally low pressures during swallow-associated contractions and/or during spontaneous contractions unassociated with swallows.

Osteopathic Cardiothoracic Surgery
I am interested in pursuing thoracic surgery, as I have been shadowing a wide range of doctors. In the military, I worked with several primary care physicians and anesthesiologists. After the military, I shadowed extensively (near 150 hours) IM physicians and cardiologists. As of now, I am shadowing an ENT, Gastro, and a thoracic surgeon. Thus far, thoracic surgery is really appealing. Therefore, I would like to inquire about osteopathic general surgery residency programs that have the potential to catapult an individual into a great thoracic surgery fellowship. I know the number of osteopathic fellowships are sparse, so p...
