    Abstract Ready reckoners are used in the clinical setting as a tool for the estimation of nutrient intake. With increasing opportunities for nutrition research, ready reckoners may provide for a more rapid analysis of nutritional intake than computerised methods, often seen as the gold standard for nutritional analysis. This research aimed to determine the level of agreement between ready reckoner and computerised dietary analysis through a secondary analysis of clinical trial data. Participant food intakes were estimated by trained observers using the one-quarter method. Daily energy and protein intake were estimated by the healthcare network ready reckoner and computerised dietary analysis. Agreement between methods was tested using t-tests, correlations and Bland-Altman plots. A correlation between analysis methods was observed (r = 0.9086 energy, r = 0.8700 protein). Wide limits of agreement were observed for both energy and protein intake. Compared with the computerised method, ready reckoner analysis underestimated energy intake by 600 kJ and protein intake by 5 g. Mean energy and protein intake calculated by each method was significantly different (p < 0.0001 energy; p < 0.0001 protein). No time differences between analysis methods were observed. In the clinical setting, practitioners should be aware of the variability of a ready reckoner compared to computerised dietary analysis. Further investigation into the acceptability of ready reckoners as a reliable method of nutrient intake determination, particularly for analysis of nutrition research, is required.

    Abstract Introduction: Conditions associated with increased intraabdominal pressure may lead to rectal prolapse. Like any pathological herniation, rectal prolapse can strangulate if incarcerated. When a patient presents with signs and symptoms of strangulation, emergent surgical intervention is warranted. This report strives to strengthen existing evidence for the use of an Altemeier-type perineal approach as a viable choice for the management of strangulated rectal prolapse in healthy individuals.
    Presentation of case: A healthy 70-year-old female presents with worsening rectal pain and an irreducible strangulated rectal prolapse. She is brought to the operating suite for an emergent exploration under anesthesia followed by an Altemeier-type procedure without diverting colostomy. The postoperative course is uneventful, and the patient is discharged on postoperative day three. Upon follow up, the patient reports having normal bowel function, and there is no evidence of recurrence.
    Discussion: Rectal prolapse is traditionally managed through either a perineal or transabdominal approach depending on the patient's clinical disposition. Incarcerated prolapse is a precursor to strangulation, and recent case reports have demonstrated the efficacy of the Altemeier procedure (perineal rectosigmoidectomy) to treat strangulated prolapse. Our initial exploration under anesthesia revealed a small section of ischemic rectal mucosa that was proximal to the rectosigmoid junction. As a result, we decided to remain within perineal parameters and perform the resection in an Altemeier-type fashion based on the boundary of ischemia.
    Conclusion: An Altemeier approach was a reasonable option for emergent surgical management of strangulated rectal prolapse in an otherwise relatively healthy individual. This case has been reported in line with the SCARE criteria (Agha et al. [1]).
