  Physical activity and risk
In the past, TKR was reserved for older persons but as the durability of implant materials has improved, the indications for surgery are being expanded to include younger, active adults.
Each member of the control group was paired with a case group member who was the same sex, similar age group, had the same number of knees replaced and had their TKR within the same time range.
Those who reported a reduction in their physical activity level after TKR were more likely to have revision surgery than those who maintained or increased their activity level.

  The National Institutes of Health (NIH) Consensus Development Program: NIH Consensus Development Conference on Total ...
Candidates for elective TKR should have radiographic evidence of joint damage, moderate to severe persistent pain that is not adequately relieved by an extended course of nonsurgical management, and clinically significant functional limitation resulting in diminished quality of life.
TKR is an elective procedure, and the risks and outcomes vary.
The results of TKR revision are not as good as those of primary TKR, the former being approximately 70 percent in the good-to-excellent range whereas the latter is approximately 90 percent.

 TKR News @ tkrfan.com - July 2003
TKR are confident that they will have a good race package for this 300km event, and with a full test day after Queensland round scheduled, the team can spend more time learning how to maximise the performance and set up of the new package.
TKR driver Craig Baird has secured the teams' best qualifying position so far this year at Queensland Raceway, but the team know that there is still plenty more to extract from the new package as they get on top of the car's set up.
TKR finished the checks with 15 minutes left in the 90 minute first practice session, but there is still two more free practice sessions on Saturday for Baird and the crew to fine tune the new package and start pushing the car and himself to the limits.

TKR generally asserts that WHAI is not "local" to these New York and New Jersey Counties and its programming is geared to the local needs and interests of the distant Bridgeport, Connecticut area.
TKR also asserts that the Bureau found that WHAI is not local, and therefore not part of the market, in other cases involving other New York cable operators, such as Cablevision in the Bronx.
TKR argues that WHAI chooses the wrong forum in which to attack the Commission's market modification policy framework as the station is challenging the Bureau's methodology in assessing all modification requests and not solely questioning the application of the established market analysis in this particular case.

TKR asserts that the Board failed to issue a valid tolling order within 30 days of receipt of the forms, as required by our rules, and therefore the Board is precluded from ordering refunds and from prescribing prospective rate reductions.
TKR had a representative at the meeting and should have been aware that the tolling order covered all three filings, since it was also noted at the meeting that all of the rate filings had been sent to a consulting group for an initial review.
TKR further claims that assuming arguendo that its filings were facially deficient, it did not receive the Board's request for information until August 26, 1994, and the Board received TKR's response to the request on October 3, 1994.

TKR argues that these distances are all within the range of distances that the Commission has previously found to attenuate the ties between cable communities and broadcast stations.
TKR argues that the communities are well-served by the channels which it already carries on its systems, other local broadcast stations which it carries are licensed to communities in New Jersey or to communities in Philadelphia.
TKR states that Maranatha's opposition cites 31 cable systems on which WFMZ-TV is carried but failed to mention that, of the 31 cable systems, only five serve any communities in New Jersey, and three of those five systems are located in Warren and Sussex Counties in northern New Jersey, which are not near TKR's systems.

Regardless, Baird pushed the TKR as hard as he could realising he was loosing 10kms per hour down the straights due to the redesigned aerodynamics of the front bonnet.
The TKR car overheated on lap 54 of the race at which time Baird was still holding down 18th position.
The TKR crew tried a few new pieces of equipment and different set ups on the car to ensure they are maximising its full potential.

 Knee Replacement - Definition, Purpose, Demographics, Description, Diagnosis/Preparation, Aftercare, Risks, Normal ...
One commonplace side effect of TKR is that knee prostheses sometimes set off metal detectors in airports and high-security buildings because of their large metal content.
The arthroscopic procedure most often used to treat knee pain from osteoarthritis is debridement, in which the surgeon cuts or scrapes away damaged structures or tissues until healthy tissue is reached.
Cartilage transplantation is a procedure in which small bone plugs with cartilage are removed from a part of the patient's knee where the cartilage is still healthy and transplanted to the area in which cartilage has been damaged.

 HSS - HSS - Newsroom: New Knee Replacement Reduces Recovery Time   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
Traditionally, the TKR surgery involves using large instruments that require flipping the knee cap over and cutting the quadriceps tendon.
By using the new Small Incision TKR technique, surgeons do not cut the quadriceps tendon, they do not flip over the knee cap and they cut less uninvolved tissue.
After the Small Incision TKR, she walked out of the hospital with a cane and had good range of motion within a month.

 eMJA: The prevalence of venous thromboembolism after hip and knee replacement surgery
All patients who had THR, TKR or bilateral TKR at the hospital between 1 April 1995 and 31 December 2001 had physical prophylaxis (graduated compression elastic stockings or intermittent pneumatic compression, or both) and chemical prophylaxis (anticoagulant) against VTE.
For all patients at the Mater Hospital who had THR, TKR or bilateral TKR during the study period, bilateral ultrasonography of the veins of both legs, from groin to lower calf, was performed on Day 7 postoperatively, or sooner if clinically indicated.
The behaviour of thrombi was similar for THR, TKR and bilateral TKR patients, with thrombi extending (in spite of appropriate treatment) in 7%–10% of patients, unchanged in 7%–13%, shrinking in 48%–60%, and resolved in 25%–30%.

 Ethnic Disparities in the Consideration of TKR
In multivariate analysis, ethnicity was significantly associated with consideration of TKR, with white subjects 3 times more likely than African-American subjects and 6 times more likely than Hispanic subjects to respond that they would consider TKR if recommended by their physician.
Conclusions: Ethnic disparities in the consideration of TKR are related to differences in familiarity with and perception of efficacy of TKR and not racial/ethnic bias in physician recommendation for TKR.
These results suggest that campaigns to increase awareness of the benefits of TKR in minority communities may be helpful in increasing the frequency of this procedure in these populations, particularly as perceptions of risk were not greater in these groups.

 knight rider online :: View topic - Question on TKR
Since TKR takes place in the 1990s, it's a prequel to Knight Rider 2000, so this contradicts what happened to K.I.T.T.; he is supposed to be in moth balls until the year 2000.
Although KR 2000 was made way before TKR, if you follow the story's timeline, TKR had already ocurred but wasn't mentioned, therefore it could be ignored again in an upcoming movie, especially since it had very little to do with the series or KR 2000.
Besides, TKR and KR 2010 got such overwhelmingly negative reactions from fans on average, or- to make a more fair statement- weren't taken seriously because they had the least to do with the series.
