Providing adequate clinical training to care for patients of all demographics remains an important goal of medical education. However, sexual and gender minority (SGM) patients are a population with consistently unmet clinical needs. The objective of this study is to assess baseline knowledge of SGM topics and perception toward treating SGM patients at a large osteopathic medical school.

Migraine is a highly prevalent and disabling neurological condition affecting approximately 12 % of adults in the United States, with substantial personal and economic burdens. Nonpharmacologic therapies, including osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT), are increasingly utilized as adjunctive or alternative management strategies, yet the evidence base for OMT efficacy in migraine remains variable and incompletely synthesized. The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of OMT in reducing monthly migraine days compared to control interventions in adult patients.
