AbstractChanges in the double star database are highlighted, describing various methods of observation (both historically and those of the past few years) and their effectiveness in different regimes of separation space. The various niches for wide- and narrow-field work as they apply to double and multiple stars are examined and the different types of information which each can provide are described. Despite the significant growth of the double star database, much can still be done, such as finding lost pairs, filling in missing parameters so that observing programs can select all stars appropriate to their capabilities, or providing at least gross kinematic descriptions. After more than 20 years of successful work, speckle interferometry and conventional CCD astrometry have replaced filar micrometry and photography as preferred classical techniques. Indeed, most work in filar micrometry is now being done by amateurs. Work on pairs described as neglected in the last major WDS data release (2001) is given as a specific example. Finally, the continued need to publish data in classical double star parameters is also discussed.

Background Dual degrees combining and MD with another professional degree (MPH, MBA, or PhD) are becoming more common in an attempt to increase an applicant’s competitivity for a residency. Objective This study was designed to assess differences in MD-only and dual degree MD applicants with respect to applicant characteristics and match outcomes. Methods Utilizing the voluntarily-reported publicly available 2017–2019 Texas STAR database, we assessed applicants from 115 medical schools. Texas STAR indicates that over this time period, there were 18,224 responses for a response rate of 43.8%. Comparisons were made between groups using student’s t-test and chi-squared analysis. Results Compared to MD only students, MD/MPH applicants had a higher propensity towards primary care specialties. MD/PhD applicants did not differ versus MD only applicants in their selection of primary care specialties, or of competitive specialties. MD/MBA applicants chose more competitive specialties and less primary care specialties. Despite all these differences, match rates were not different comparing MD only and dual-degree students. Conclusions Despite the growing popularity of combined MD programs, such programs do not appear to increase applicant match competitivity.

Star Database

Binary star DataBase (BDB) is the database of binary/multiple systems of various observational types. BDB contains data on physical and positional parameters of 260,000 components of 120,000 stellar systems of multiplicity 2 to more than 20, taken from a large variety of published catalogues and databases. We describe the new features in organization of the database, integration of new catalogues and implementation of new possibilities available to users. The development of the BDB index-catalogue, Identification List of Binaries, is discussed. This star catalogue provides cross-referencing between most popular catalogues of binary stars. We describe ideas and methods for reliable cross-identification of different entities (systems, pairs, components) in binary and multiple stellar systems.

Abstract Objectives To determine the association of Neisseria gonorrhoeae antimicrobial resistance and genotypes using N. gonorrhoeae sequence typing for antimicrobial resistance (NG-STAR). Methods We characterized 124 N. gonorrhoeae isolates for their antimicrobial susceptibility profiles and NG-STAR ST characteristics using the guidelines of CLSI and EUCAST. The NG-STAR STs of seven loci were analysed. N. gonorrhoeae multiantigen sequence typing (NG-MAST) and MLST analysis was conducted in isolates with specific NG-STAR STs. Results NG-STAR differentiated 124 N. gonorrhoeae isolates into 84 STs, of which 66 STs were novel to the NG-STAR database. NG-STAR ST-199, ST-348, ST-428, ST-497 and ST-1138 were the predominant STs. Three N. gonorrhoeae isolates with ceftriaxone and cefixime MICs ≥1.0 mg/L were grouped as NG-STAR ST-233. NG-STAR ST-202 isolates (n=4) were associated with high azithromycin MICs and had an identical NG-MAST ST. The NG-STAR ST-348 group (n=5) comprised more isolates with reduced susceptibility to cefixime (n=4) than cefixime-susceptible isolates (n=1). Conclusions NG-STAR analysis differentiated N. gonorrhoeae isolates in settings with a high prevalence of antimicrobial resistance. Specific NG-STAR STs are associated with reduced susceptibility to ceftriaxone or cefixime and resistance to azithromycin in N. gonorrhoeae.
