Midline versus anterolateral incisions for total knee arthroplasty-a systematic review and analysis of the angiosomes of the knee.

Introduction: The most common incision for total knee arthroplasty is the anterior midline incision; however, it is commonly associated with lateral knee numbness, kneeling difficulties and restricted flexion range. We sought to review the literature regarding the neurovascular supply and angiosomes over the anterior knee, and evaluate the anterolateral incision as a viable alternative for knee arthroplasty.

Methods: A systematic review of the literature was performed searching PUBMED, MEDLINE and EMBASE to evaluate the incisions available for total knee arthroplasty with respect to neurological function, kneeling ability and complications.

Defining the upper extremity range of motion for safe automobile driving.

Background: There are no guidelines for return to driving following upper extremity injury. A greater comprehension of the role of the upper extremity in driving is required to assist clinicians in their fitness-to-drive assessments. This research aims to assist clinicians by analyzing the motion at the upper extremity in safe automobile driving.

Low maternal education and socio-economic status were associated with household food insecurity in children under five with diarrhoea in Bangladesh.

Aim: Household food insecurity (HFI) is insufficient access to nutritionally safe and adequate foods to meet the dietary needs for an active and healthy life. We examined the prevalence and determinants of HFI in Bangladeshi children under five with diarrhoea.

Methods: This study included 365 children (55% boys) who had diarrhoea in the two weeks before the 2011 Bangladesh Demographic Health Survey (BDHS-2011).
