Input: Question: Does a dedicated research program increase the quantity and quality of orthopaedic resident publications?
Answer: Currently in the United States, there are no standard policies or requirements that dictate how research should be incorporated in orthopaedic surgery residency training programs. The results of our study suggest that implementation of a dedicated resident research program improves the quantity and to some extent quality of orthopaedic resident research publications, but this effect did not persist after graduation.
Output:
yes
