3.Modified Step - cut Osteotomy of Distal Humerus for the Correction of Cubitus Varus Deformity.
The Journal of the Korean Orthopaedic Association 1998;33(4):1082-1091
Some modifications of the step-cut osteotomy for the correction of cubitus varus are described. It involves a 90 step-cut on the proximal humeral fragment after the initial transverse osteotomy; the distal fragment is translated medially to avoid an unsightly lateral condylar prominence at the elbow; and the osteotomy was fixated using two crossed pins with additional tension band wires or a plate and screws. Ten patients were treated by this method with uniform success. They were followed up for at least one year. The preoperative humeral-elbow-wrist (HEW) angle averaged -17.9. The final HEW angle averaged 8.6. No loss of correction or motion occurred. Complication was a transient ulnar neurapraxia. All of the patients were satisfied with the excellent cosmetic results. The author recommends this modification of the step-cut osteotomy as safe and effective.

7.Dengue: an overview

Dengue is one of the highest occurring vector-borne diseases. It is caused by dengue viruses 1- 4. Currently,
the disease is classified into dengue with or without warning signs and severe dengue based on WHO 2009
dengue classification. As of today, neither specific drugs nor commercial vaccine exist for dengue. The best
treatment yet would be support, management and proper medical care. With no pathognomonic features
that could differentiate it from other febrile illnesses, clinical diagnosis alone is insufficient. Yet, despite the
current advances and existence of various laboratory diagnostic methods of dengue, a consensus singular
method has not been established. There are several hypotheses or theories regarding the vaguely understood
immunopathogenesis of dengue. Amongst these are the viral factors, host-immune factors and host-genetic
factors. In addition to these, the occurrence of asymptomatic dengue has further complicated the disease.
However, these individuals provide opportunities in the search for protective factors against dengue.
