Abstract

Background: Robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty (RATKA) enhances surgical precision and prosthesis alignment compared to conventional total knee arthroplasty (COTKA), potentially improving outcomes and patient satisfaction for knee osteoarthritis. Methods: The review adhered to PRISMA 2020 standards and analyzed full-text English literature from 2014 to 2024. Literature sources included PubMed, SagePub, SpringerLink, and Google Scholar. Result: A total of  500 articles were retrieved from online databases (PubMed, SagePub, SpringerLink and Google Scholar). After three rounds of screening, ten articles directly relevant to the systematic review were selected for full-text reading and analysis. Conclusion: RATKA demonstrates superior radiological alignment and precision compared to COTKA, while achieving comparable functional outcomes and complication rates. The integration of robotic technology in orthopedic surgery holds promise, yet ongoing research is crucial to optimize its clinical application and enhance patient outcomes globally.

Abstract

Background: Dengue fever, caused by mosquitoes, has four serotypes with over 30% amino acid sequence differences. Secondary infections are more severe than primary ones, possibly due to antibody-dependent enhancement. Certain serotypes can cause more severe infections even during primary infection. Methods: The PRISMA 2020 Systematic Review ensures the accuracy and consistency of research on dengue infections. The study complies with strict inclusion and exclusion standards, assessing cross-sectional studies, English-language publications, and factors such as titles, authors, publication dates, locations, and methodologies. The aim is to improve patient care practices and raise awareness of important topics in literature. Result: After a thorough three-step screening process, 10 papers were determined to have pertinent connections to our current in-depth investigation. Following that, the entire text was closely scrutinized, and further attention was paid to these specific passages. Conclusion: Secondary infections, influenced by different serotypes, are prevalent in Southeast Asian regions, with severe cases more common than primary infections.
