Article Synopsis
- General practitioners often use lignocaine to excise suspected skin cancers, but it's unclear how its dose and volume affect wound complications.
- A pilot study reviewed patient records before and after an educational intervention, examining the link between lignocaine volume/dose and complication rates.
- Findings indicated that both the volume and dose of lignocaine were significantly related to complications, leading to reduced usage post-intervention without compromising pain relief, suggesting a need for further research in this area.
Introduction: Measurement of bone mineral density (BMD) is recommended in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, most persons in the community and most patients with CKD have osteopenia, suggesting fracture risk is low. Bone loss compromises bone microarchitecture which increases fragility disproportionate to modest deficits in BMD.

Methods: We analyzed 47 patients (29 men and 18 women) using a computed tomographic (CT) angiogram of the lower limbs.
