Essential Anatomy for Obstetrics and Gynecology in the Undergraduate Medical Curriculum
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Introduction To prepare medical students for clinical training and practice, it is critical to understand the anatomical knowledge considered most important for different clinical specialties. Aim To address this issue, a consortium of anatomists in the US and Canada is collecting data from clinical educators in Obstetrics and Gynecology (ObGyn) clerkships and electives to identify the anatomy they consider essential. Methods An IRB‐approved, online survey (Qualtrics, Seattle, WA) was used to assess the importance of 98 anatomical topics in seven body regions. The study first examined the percentage of ObGyn clinical educators (clerkship/elective directors and attending physicians) that considered each anatomical region important to their specialty. Second, the study examined the rank assigned to each anatomical topic using an ordinal scale from 1 (not important) to 4 (essential). Results At the time of abstract submission, data had been collected from 71 ObGyn clinical educators at 22 medical schools. The percentage of ObGyn clinical educators that considered each anatomical region important to their specialty were (highest‐to‐lowest): Pelvis & Perineum (100%), Abdomen (96%), Lower Limb (47%), Back (34%), Thorax (26%), Head & Neck (18%), and Upper Limb (13%). Further data analysis has identified the highest ranked anatomical topics in each body region for the ObGyn clerkship/elective. Discussion and Conclusion This database provides detailed information regarding the most clinically relevant anatomical topics as identified by ObGyn clinical educators. This information can aid in focusing preclinical learning to best prepare medical students for success in their undergraduate and graduate clinical experiences.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
