Approaching the Blank Document: gamification of manuscript writing from a trainee's perspective

<p data-start="177" data-end="574">In this episode of the SMFM Podcast Series, Dr. Rachel Harrison is joined by Dr. Minhazur Sarker to discuss one of the most common challenges in academic medicine: turning research into a completed manuscript. Despite the time and effort invested in research, a significant portion of work presented at conferences never reaches publication, limiting its impact on clinical care and future studies.</p> <p data-start="576" data-end="874">Dr. Sarker shares an innovative, practical approach to overcoming this barrier through the "gamification" of manuscript writing. By breaking the writing process into smaller, trackable steps, this method helps reduce overwhelm, improve accountability, and support steady progress toward completion.</p> <p data-start="876" data-end="1099">Together, they explore key barriers to manuscript completion, strategies for developing strong research questions, and practical ways mentors and trainees can work together to move projects from presentation to publication.</p> <p data-start="1101" data-end="1295">This episode offers actionable insights for maternal-fetal medicine fellows, trainees, and practicing clinicians looking to enhance research productivity and successfully disseminate their work.</p> <p data-start="1101" data-end="1295"> <strong>Resources: </strong></p> <p data-start="1101" data-end="1295"><a href= "https://journals.lww.com/ogopen/pages/articleviewer.aspx?year=2026&issue=02000&article=00013&type=Fulltext"> Approaching the Blank Document </a></p> <p> </p>

The 2025–2030 Dietary Guidelines: What Obstetric Clinicians Should (and Shouldn't) Apply in Pregnancy

<p data-start="296" data-end="498">The updated 2025–2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans introduce notable changes in protein recommendations, dietary patterns, and overall messaging, but how do these updates translate to pregnancy care?</p> <p data-start="500" data-end="903">In this episode of the SMFM Podcast, Dr. Amy Valent is joined by Dr. Cara Dolin and registered dietitian Hillary Hart to explore what these new guidelines mean for obstetric clinicians. Together, they break down key updates, highlight areas of alignment (and misalignment) with current pregnancy nutrition evidence, and offer practical strategies for counseling patients in real-world clinical settings.</p> <p data-start="905" data-end="1086">This discussion emphasizes the importance of individualized care, critical evaluation of guidelines, and actionable nutrition principles that support both maternal and fetal health.</p> <p data-start="1088" data-end="1113"><strong data-start="1088" data-end="1113">Listeners will learn:</strong></p> <ul data-start="1114" data-end="1543"> <li data-section-id="17icdwt" data-start="1114" data-end="1198">Key updates in the 2025–2030 Dietary Guidelines and their relevance to pregnancy</li> <li data-section-id="19qtqvv" data-start="1199" data-end="1290"> Evidence-based nutrition principles that remain essential for maternal and fetal health</li> <li data-section-id="1s9mji5" data-start="1291" data-end="1372">How to approach counseling on protein intake, fats, and ultra-processed foods</li> <li data-section-id="8tnnmd" data-start="1373" data-end="1451"> Practical ways to support patients facing barriers such as food insecurity</li> <li data-section-id="1heb8m9" data-start="1452" data-end="1543"> Simple, high-impact nutrition strategies clinicians can incorporate into routine visits</li> </ul> <p data-start="1545" data-end="1606">For more educational resources, visit <a href= "https://education.smfm.org/"><strong data-start="1583" data-end= "1605">education.smfm.org</strong>.</a></p> <p data-start="1545" data-end="1606"><strong>Additional Resources:</strong></p> <ul> <li style="font-size: 12pt;" data-start="1545" data-end="1606"> <!-- [if !supportLists]--><span style= "font-size: 12pt; font-weight: normal;"><a href= "https://www.dietaryguidelines.gov/resources/2020-2025-dietary-guidelines-online-materials">2025–2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans</a></span></li> <li style="font-size: 12pt;" data-start="1545" data-end="1606"> <span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style= "font-weight: normal;"><a href= "https://www.dietaryguidelines.gov/sites/default/files/2021-03/Dietary_Guidelines_for_Americans-2020-2025.pdf"> 2020–2025 Dietary Guidelines for Americans (pregnancy & lactation section still recommended for use)</a></span> <span style="font-family: Symbol; font-weight: normal;"><span style="mso-list: Ignore;"> <span style= "font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-language-override: normal; font-kerning: auto; font-optical-sizing: auto; font-feature-settings: normal; font-variation-settings: normal; font-weight: normal; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: 'Times New Roman';">  </span></span></span><!--[endif]--><span style= "font-weight: normal;"><a href= "https://www.dietaryguidelines.gov/2025-advisory-committee-report">Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee Scientific Report </a></span></span></li> <li style="font-size: 12pt;" data-start="1545" data-end="1606"> <span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style= "font-family: Symbol; font-weight: normal;"><span style= "mso-list: Ignore;"><span style= "font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-language-override: normal; font-kerning: auto; font-optical-sizing: auto; font-feature-settings: normal; font-variation-settings: normal; font-weight: normal; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: 'Times New Roman';">  </span></span></span><!--[endif]--><span style= "font-weight: normal;"><a href= "https://nutritionsource.hsph.harvard.edu/healthy-eating-plate/">Harvard Healthy Eating Plate </a></span></span></li> <li data-start="1545" data-end="1606"><span style= "font-size: 12pt;"><span style= "font-family: Symbol; font-weight: normal;"><span style= "mso-list: Ignore;"><span style= "font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-language-override: normal; font-kerning: auto; font-optical-sizing: auto; font-feature-settings: normal; font-variation-settings: normal; font-weight: normal; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; font-family: 'Times New Roman';">  </span></span></span><!--[endif]--><span style= "font-weight: normal;"><a href= "https://diabetes.org/health-wellness">American Diabetes Association – Patient Education Library</a></span></span></li> <li data-start="1545" data-end="1606"><a href= "https://www.fns.usda.gov/snap/SNAP-Ed"><span style= "font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program)</span></span></a></li> <li data-start="1545" data-end="1606"><a href= "https://wicbreastfeeding.fns.usda.gov/"><span style= "font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">WIC (Women, Infants, and Children Program)</span></span></a></li> </ul>
