Is focal nerve enlargement the cause for increased distal motor latency in ALS : Sonographic evaluation?
Selective conduction slowing of the median nerve at the wrist in ALS is unlikely due to secondary compressive neuropathy, as seen in carpal tunnel syndrome.
The NRMP data from 1984 to 2011 supported our hypothesis that intercandidate competition intensity for orthopedic PGY1 positions has not increased over time. The misconception that orthopedics is becoming more competitive likely arises from the increased number of applications submitted per candidate and the resulting relative importance placed on objective criteria such as United States Medical Licensing Examination Step 1 scores when programs select interview cohorts.
