Review
Junior doctor workforce: A review
Adam Glenn Hutchinson
A growing junior medical workforce is experiencing high rates of distress due to stress, bullying, and harassment, burnout, and uncertainty. This review evaluates these stressors in Australian and international cohorts, and attempts to present future opportunities.
This systematic review shows no clear pattern of the impact of bariatric surgery (BS) on lower limb total joint arthroplasty (TJA). Prophylactic BS prior to lower limb TJA to induce weight loss does not significantly impact postoperative complication rates.
