Evaluating Research Productivity Trends Among Orthopaedic Adult Reconstruction Fellowship Applicants: A Bibliometric Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The research benchmarks necessary for a successful adult reconstruction fellowship match remain unclear. This study aimed to characterize and identify trends in the academic profiles of adult reconstruction fellows in the United States.

Methods

The American Association of Hip and Knee Surgeons fellowship directory was used to identify U.S. adult reconstruction fellowships programs that listed fellows graduating from 2019 to 2023. For each fellow, total number of publications, authorship position, number of publications with an adult reconstruction focus, and number of citations were collected using Scopus. Only publications accepted or published before the fellow's match year were compiled. Research productivity was compared across medical degree, sex, fellowship
