Phlegmasia cerulea dolens and external iliac vein disruption after revision total hip arthroplasty
We present a unique case of phlegmasia cerulea dolens and compartment syndrome secondary to external iliac vein disruption after revision total hip arthroplasty. To our knowledge, this complication has not yet been described following revision total hip arthroplasty. We conclude that although vascular complications are fortunately rare after hip arthroplasty, they can have significant morbidity and mortality. Surgeons should have a thorough understanding of pelvic and hip anatomy for screw and retractor placement and know how to appropriately and expeditiously manage vascular complications should they occur.

Comparison Between the Attune and PFC Sigma in Total Knee Arthroplasty: No Difference in Patellar Clunk and Crepitus or Anterior Knee Pain
Identification of RO4597014, a Glucokinase Activator Studied in the Clinic for the Treatment of Type 2 Diabetes
To
resolve the metabolite redox cycling associated with our earlier
clinical compound <b>2</b>, we carried out lead optimization
of lead molecule <b>1</b>. Compound <b>4</b> showed improved
lipophilic ligand efficiency and demonstrated robust glucose lowering
in diet-induced obese mice without a liability in predictive preclinical
drug safety studies. Thus, it was selected as a clinical candidate
and further studied in type 2 diabetic patients. Clinical data suggests
no evidence of metabolite cycling, which is consistent with the preclinical
profiling of metabolism
