Gender categorization is central to everyday life. Discussions about gender have traditionally focused on , or gender categories to which a person might have an internal sense of belonging (e.g.

- Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) aims to align the femoral component properly with respect to the femoral cortex, but there is a lack of focus on restoring the native trochlear groove height (TGH), which this study seeks to investigate.
- The study measured TGH in 110 normal subjects, finding it varied from the anterior femoral cortex by an average of 2.32 mm, indicating potential misalignment in TKA procedures.
- Results suggest that approximately 24.5% of patients could be over- or understuffed by more than 2 mm when a standard trochlear depth is used, highlighting the need for surgical approaches that consider TGH to improve TKA outcomes.
Article Synopsis
- Enterovirus D68 (EV-D68) is linked to severe respiratory illness and acute flaccid myelitis (AFM), with 2022 showing increased infections but no rise in AFM cases unlike in 2018, which had a significant surge in AFM.
- A study of 351 EV-D68 cases mainly involved children under 5, revealing that infections in 2018 led to more hospitalizations compared to 2022, and identified specific viral genomic changes associated with severe outcomes.
- The findings emphasize the need for ongoing viral genomic surveillance to better understand the connections between genomic changes, immune responses, and the severity of diseases like AFM.
Background: A dementia diagnosis can lead to a decline in cognitive, social, and physical health, but people with dementia can live meaningful lives and participate actively in society with psychosocial support. This single-arm, non-randomised feasibility study explored the feasibility and acceptability of a Comprehensive REsilience-building psychoSocial intervenTion (CREST) for people with dementia, their caregivers, General Practitioners (GPs), and the public.
Methods: Nine people with dementia and their primary caregivers living in the community (n = 9 dyads) completed the CREST intervention which had three components (cognitive stimulation therapy [CST], physical exercise, and dementia education).
