Prevalence of dyslipidaemia in OSA patients at a tertiary care center
20-03-2023CONCLUSION: OSA and obesity are potential risk factors for dyslipidemia. The diagnosis of hyperlipidemia was linked to OSA, and the association was more significant with OSA severity. Hyperlipidemia was well recognized in patients with OSA. LDL and HDL are the independent predictors of OSA.

A Multidisciplinary Approach to the Nonambulatory Bariatric Patient With Bilateral Knee Osteoarthritis
20-03-2023Obesity and lower-extremity arthritis are challenging problems to address as they are often mutually exacerbating. Due to the known perioperative risk of morbid obesity, the modality and timing of weight loss prior to arthroplasty is debated. We present a case of a 55-year-old nonambulatory female patient with an initial body mass index of 80.3 kg/m². This individual underwent a staged bariatric and joint replacement surgical pathway employing personnel of differing treatment disciplines. Our...
