Outcome measures for orthopaedic interventions on the hip
Orthopaedic outcome measures are used to evaluate the effect of operative interventions. They are used for audit and research. Knowledge of these measures is becoming increasingly important with league tables comparing surgeons and hospitals being made accessible to the profession and the general public. Several types of tool are available to describe outcome after hip surgery such as generic quality-of-life questionnaires, disease-specific quality-of-life questionnaires, hip-specific outcome measures and general short-term clinical measures. We provide an overview of the outcome measures commonly used to evaluate hip intervention

Retropharyngeal lipoma, a benign yet potentially lethal condition: Case presentation and review of the literature
Retropharyngeal masses are benign or malignant. Because of their location, even the most benign lesion may behave in such a manner as to endanger life by compressing and obstructing the air and-or food passages. The case of an elderly woman whose life was endangered because of excessive hypercarbia, severe dysphagia, weight loss, and excessive daytime sleepiness secondary to a rare retropharyngeal benign mass, a lipoma, is presented. The literature is reviewed, and all the available cases are tabulated.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
