摘要

目的评价2012 - 2023年运动医学奖学金申请性别、学位类型的变化趋势，以及这些因素对匹配成功的影响。方法提取2012 - 2023年旧金山配对计划（SF Match）数据并进行分析。基于申请人学位和性别的申请人数量和匹配率数据进行了评估。使用Pearson相关检验来评估申请人数和匹配率的趋势和比例。Fisher精确检验用于比较对抗疗法和整骨疗法申请人以及男性和女性候选人的匹配率。结果2012 - 2023年共有2996人申请运动医学奖学金。有510名国际医学毕业生（17.1%）被排除在该分析之外，在研究队列中留下2,486名申请人。有319名整骨疗法申请人（12.8%）和2167名对抗疗法申请人（77.2%）。其中女性265人（10.7%），男性2221人（89.3%）。从2012年到2023年，骨科和对抗疗法住院医师申请运动医学奖学金的匹配率无显著差异（P = .62）。在研究期间，男性应聘者的匹配率无统计学意义变化（r = 0.45, P = 0.06）。女性申请者的匹配率略高于男性申请者（94.1%对91.4%），尽管这种差异没有统计学意义（P = .13）。结论骨科运动医学实习医师申请整骨疗法的人数和匹配率显著增加，而对抗疗法实习医师的人数和匹配率无统计学意义变化。整骨疗法和对抗疗法患者的匹配率没有差异，男性和女性患者的匹配率也没有统计学上的显著差异。然而，在研究期间，申请骨科运动医学奖学金的女性人数仍略低于女性住院医师的比例。临床相关性了解运动医学奖学金申请者的性别和学位类型的趋势，以及它们对匹配结果的影响，可能有助于识别潜在的差异，并为促进运动医学劳动力的公平和多样性提供策略。

There Is Increasing Osteopathic Representation Among Orthopaedic Sports Medicine Fellowship Applicants, in Addition to Increasing Match Rates, Whereas the Number of Female Applicants Remains Disproportionately Lower Than the Number of Women in Residency Programs

Purpose

To evaluate trends in gender and degree type of applicants to sports medicine fellowships from 2012 to 2023 and the impact of these factors on match success.

Methods

San Francisco Matching Program (SF Match) data from 2012 to 2023 were extracted and analyzed. Data regarding number of applicants and match rates based on applicant degree and gender were evaluated. The Pearson correlation test was used to evaluate trends and proportions for the number of applicants and match rates. The Fisher exact test was used to compare the match rates of allopathic and osteopathic applicants, as well as male and female candidates.

Results

In total, there were 2,996 applicants for sports medicine fellowships from 2012 to 2023. There were 510 international medical graduates (17.1%) who were excluded from this analysis, leaving 2,486 applicants in the study cohort. There were 319 osteopathic applicants (12.8%) and 2,167 allopathic applicants (77.2%). Of the applicants, 265 (10.7%) were women and 2,221 (89.3%) were men. From 2012 to 2023, there was no significant difference in match rates between osteopathic and allopathic residents applying to sports medicine fellowships (P = .62). There was no statistically significant change in the match rate of male applicants over the study period (r = 0.45, P = .06). Female applicants matched at a slightly higher rate than male applicants (94.1% vs 91.4%), although this difference was not statistically significant (P = .13).

Conclusions

There was a significant increase in the number of osteopathic applicants and the match rate of osteopathic residents for orthopaedic sports medicine fellowships, whereas there was no statistically significant change in the number or match rate of allopathic residents. There was no difference in match rates between osteopathic and allopathic candidates nor was there a statistically significant difference in match rates between male and female applicants. However, the number of women applying to orthopaedic sports medicine fellowships remained slightly lower than the proportion of female residents over the study period.

Clinical Relevance

Understanding trends in gender and degree type among applicants to sports medicine fellowships, as well as their impact on match outcomes, may help identify potential disparities and inform strategies to promote equity and diversity in the sports medicine workforce.
