Changes in the Appendicular Skeleton with Age01:09

Changes in the Appendicular Skeleton with Age

3.2K
The upper and lower limb initially develops as a small bulge called a limb bud, which appears on the lateral side of the early embryo. The upper limb bud appears near the end of the fourth week of development, with the lower limb bud appearing shortly after.
Initially, the limb buds consist of a core of mesenchyme covered by a layer of ectoderm. The ectoderm at the end of the limb bud thickens to form a narrow crest called the apical ectodermal ridge. This ridge stimulates the underlying...

Introduction to the Skeletal System

8.5K
The skeletal system is the central framework of the body, consisting of different connective tissues: bones, cartilage, tendons, and ligaments.
Components of the Skeletal System
Bone, or osseous tissue, is a hard connective tissue that forms an internal support structure for the human body. Bones shield vulnerable organs and soft tissue from external forces. For example, the vertebral bones protect and support the spinal cord.
Cartilage, a semi-rigid connective tissue found in regions such as...

Stereotypes, Prejudice, and Discrimination

94.6K
Humans are very diverse and although we share many similarities, we also have many differences. The social groups we belong to help form our identities (Tajfel, 1974). These differences may be difficult for some people to reconcile, which may lead to prejudice toward people who are different. Prejudice is a negative attitude and feeling toward an individual based solely on one’s membership in a particular social group (Allport, 1954; Brown, 2010). Prejudice is common against people who...

Bones of the Lower Limb: Femur and Patella01:16

Bones of the Lower Limb: Femur and Patella

4.6K
The femur is the body's longest and strongest bone spanning the thigh region. Its head articulates with the acetabulum of the hip bone to form the hip joint. A minor indentation on the medial side of the femoral head, called the fovea capitis, serves as the site of attachment for the ligament of the head of the femur. This weak ligament spans the femur and acetabulum and supports the hip joint. The narrowed region below the head is the neck of the femur. The inclination angle between the...

Peripheral Artery Disease III: Interprofessional Care

Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) is characterized by narrowed arteries that diminish blood flow to the extremities. Effective management of PAD requires an interprofessional approach involving various healthcare professionals. The critical aspects of interprofessional care for PAD patients focus on risk factor modification, drug therapy, exercise therapy, nutrition therapy, critical limb ischemia care, and interventional radiology and surgical procedures.The primary treatment goal for PAD...

Area of Science:

  • Podiatric Medicine and Surgery
  • Medical Education
  • Gender Studies in Medicine

Background:

  • The number of women in podiatric medicine has grown substantially over 40 years.
  • Despite this growth, women remain underrepresented in academic and leadership positions within the profession.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the representation of women in leadership roles within podiatric medicine over time.
  • To identify factors contributing to the observed gender gap in leadership.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of national and state professional society data on women's leadership.
  • A secondary electronic survey of 8684 doctors of podiatric medicine, with a 26% response rate.
  • Comparison of leadership trends, career experiences, and reported discrimination between genders.

Main Results:

  • Female representation in academia, research, leadership, and board certifications has increased but at a slower pace than their entry into the profession.
  • Trends show a decrease in female participation in fellowships, national speaking engagements, residency directorships, and grant awards.
  • Female physicians reported higher rates of work dissatisfaction, stress, gender discrimination (73%), and sexual harassment (42%) compared to male colleagues.

Conclusions:

  • A persistent gender gap in podiatric medicine leadership exists, influenced by work-life balance issues, gender discrimination, and sexual harassment.
  • Addressing these systemic issues is crucial for achieving gender equity in podiatric medicine leadership roles.
