J Arthroplasty
January 2025
Anshin Hospital, Kobe, Japan.
Background: Total hip arthroplasty (THA) effectively enhances hip function and alleviates pain in patients who have osteoarthritis, improving their quality of life. The Forgotten Joint Score-12 (FJS-12), a patient-reported outcome measure, has recently gained attention as a method for assessing joint awareness during daily activities following THA; however, the association between muscle strength, specifically quadriceps muscle strength, and the FJS-12 has not been fully investigated.
Methods: This cross-sectional study involved 624 patients who underwent THA at a single center in Japan.

The incidence of syphilis has increased steadily over the past 25 years. Undiagnosed cases have presumably increased in the same proportions, and rare complications are at particularly high risk of being unrecognised. A previously healthy 60-year-old man presented with rapidly progressive heart failure and severe aortic and mitral valve insufficiency, with direct valvular destruction and preservation of the aortic valve annulus and aortic root.

Unlabelled: A 16-year-old man presented to the Accident and Emergence services with a 10-day history of shortness of breath, sore throat, vomiting, diarrhoea, poor oral intake, chest pain, jaundice, diplopia and reduced urine output. He was initially treated for sepsis, however, subsequent imaging and blood cultures confirmed the diagnosis of Lemierre's syndrome (LS). LS, also known as necrobacillosis or post-pharyngitis anaerobic septicaemia is comprised of a triad of metastatic septic emboli secondary to pharyngitis, bacteraemia, and internal jugular vein thrombophlebitis.

Although dietary guidelines concerning carbohydrate intake for athletes are well established, these do not include recommendations for daily fibre intake.

The effect of fibre intake in overall health is also important, particularly in combination with other dietary considerations such as the elevated protein requirements in this population.
