“…It improves research quality, increases research output, and also improves the communication skills of the researchers. 12 , 13 In the present study, more than half of the theses had supervision from another department, either academic or clinical. However, as shown in Table 3 , there was a reduction in the number of supervisions from 141 to 45 (61.7%) in the last 12 years.…”

AimThe aim of this work was to assess scientific research of master’s and doctoral theses and essays in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Zagazig University, Egypt.Materials and methodsAll master’s and doctoral theses and essays since the foundation of Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Zagazig University, Egypt, in 1975 till end of 2012 were reviewed.ResultsA total of 703 theses and essays were reviewed. The important topics in the specialty of obstetrics and gynecology were covered and updated. Infertility, in vitro fertilization–embryo transfer (IVF-ET) and related techniques, and polycystic ovarian disease were the most common gynecologic topics (27.2%), followed by gynecologic oncology (18.5%). Preeclampsia was the most common obstetrics topic (18.8%), followed by issues of high-risk pregnancy, fetal growth restriction, and fetal well-being (11.6%). The number of researches that allow the candidates to learn skills was 183 and it was increased from 4.4% of all research in the period 1979–1988 to 33.2% in period 1989–2000 then slightly decreased to 31.2% in period 2001–2012. Ultrasonography was on the top and was present in 99 out of 183 (54.1%) followed by laparoscopy (30, 16.4%), hysteroscopy (25, 13.7%), IVF-ET and related techniques (16, 8.7%) and colposcopy (13, 7.1%) researches. Multi-disciplinary research was decreased by 61.7% in the period 2001–2012. Researches in academic fields were abandoned and in some clinically important areas like preeclampsia were decreased.ConclusionScientific research of master’s and doctoral theses and essays was comprehensive, updated, and had some autonomy independent of plans. Research which enable the candidate to learn skills were increased on the expense of academic, clinical and multidisciplinary research. It could be recommended that plans for scientific research should be flexible and should leave a space for local departmental views. Proper training of residents during their rotation in these subspecialties may help to revive the lost interest in clinically important areas.

“…This situation has brought about new requirements for physicians in the field of cardiology and has increased pressure on cardiologists during their work. In America, Japan, and most European countries, medical students must undergo strict internship, training, assessment, and promotion systems before becoming cardiologists, even after graduation from medical school (2). A gender imbalance was also found within cardiology internationally that may affect patient care, education, and workplace culture, and this gender imbalance has caused wide concern in several countries (3)(4)(5).…”

Aim: To explore the gender, educational background, and choice of subspecialty characteristics of doctors working in the department of cardiology at four tertiary hospitals (Shanghai, Nanjing, Xuzhou, and Hangzhou, named Hospital A, B, C, and D, respectively) selected from four representative cities in China. Methods: A total of 201 physicians from four tertiary hospitals in four cities in East China completed the questionnaire. Survey questions include physicians’ educational background, professional title, specialty, and postgraduate education. These hospitals were in cities with diverse sizes and affiliated with different organizations. Results: Most cardiologists working in the invasive subspecialty have a senior title (59.29%), especially in Hospital D (100%). Hospital D has the highest proportion of cardiologists with a domestic post-graduate education (56.25%); however, Hospital A has the highest proportion of cardiologists with an international post-graduate education (46.67%). Compared with male doctors, there are fewer female doctors (20.59 vs. 79.41%, p < 0.001) and fewer female doctors have a senior title and post-graduate education (p < 0.005). Most female doctors choose the non-invasive subspecialty (86.67 vs. 13.33%, p < 0.001). Conclusion: Differences including age, sex, professional title, post-graduate education experience, and choice of subspecialty exist in the cardiologists from four representative hospitals in China. The extent to which these differences would affect the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of cardiovascular diseases deserves further research.

“…7 One particularly important gap is lack of participation in interdisciplinary clinical research programs, a high-priority area for funding agencies that is directly relevant to an aging population. 8 This status quo will eventually worsen the disconnect between new therapeutic strategies and their evidence-based implementation in elderly patients with cardiovascular disease.…”
