Sports Activity After Short-Stem Hip Arthroplasty [PDF]

, 2011
Background: No data are available about the sports activity of patients with bone-conserving short-stem hip implants. Hypothesis: Patients can return to a good level of sports activity after implantation of a short-stem hip implant.

Associations of Sleep and Shift Work With Osteoarthritis Risk

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Daily rhythms may be critical for maintaining homeostasis of joint tissues. We aimed to investigate the relationships among circadian clock disruption, sleep, and osteoarthritis (OA) risk in humans. Methods In the UK Biobank, a prospective 500,000–person cohort, we evaluated associations among sleep duration, sleeplessness/insomnia, and shift

Epidemiology of Hip Fractures [PDF]

Epidemiologic Reviews, 1997
Hip fractures are the most serious osteoporotic fracture at both an individual and population level. In the United States alone there are over 250,000 hip fractures each year (1), costing at least 5.4 billion dollars annually (2). About 20 percent of persons who fracture their hip are dead within a year (3, 4) and, of the survivors, many never regain ...

Use of a Molecular Signature Response Classifier to Inform Treatment Selection Improves Clinical Disease Activity Among Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis Initiating a Biologic or Targeted Synthetic Disease‐Modifying Antirheumatic Drug

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective We assessed the effectiveness of PrismRA to improve clinical outcomes among patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) initiating treatment with a biologic or targeted synthetic disease‐modifying antirheumatic drug (b/tsDMARD). Methods PrismRA incorporated 19 gene expression features and four clinical features to assess a patient's likelihood of

Innovative Processing of Compacted Waste Aluminum Alloy Powders via Controlled Remelting and Solidification

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates an efficient recycling route for out‐of‐spec AlSi10Mg atomized powders through compaction and arc remelting followed by suction casting. By correlating compaction load, cooling rate, and resulting microstructure, we show that intermediate pressures (50–80 kN) and rapid cooling refine dendrites, reduce porosity, and enhance ...

The epidemiology of fractures in England

, 2008
Introduction: Fractures are a considerable public health burden in the United Kingdom but information on their epidemiology is limited. Objective: This study aims to estimate the true annual incidence and lifetime prevalence of fractures in England ...

Creating Ti–Fe α/β Alloys by Diffusion‐Driven Solid‐State Processing

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study proposes making alloys containing fast diffusing elements that are difficult to produce by ingot metallurgy, by diffusion‐driven solid‐state HIP processing of elemental powders and low‐temperature homogenisation. Here, novel Fe‐Ti α–β alloys are formed having fine α–β lamellae, a small β prior grain size without significant intermetallics ...

Three-year follow-up mortality rate in Malta [PDF]

, 2016
Introduction: Primary osteoporosis is a major factor in fragility hip fractures. The index fracture is loaded with morbidity and increased mortality in these very fragile patients. The aim of the study was to evaluate the mortality rate after 3 months, 1

Are hip-specific items useful in a quality of life questionnaire for patients with hip fractures?

, 2009
Researchers measure the significance of hip fracture by the patient's impairment. The patient's quality of life (QOL) is usually also substantially affected. However, there is no specific quality of life (QOL questionnaire for patients with hip fractures.

Parameter Variation in Planetary Ball Milling of Titanium Aluminide Powder in XHV‐Adequate Atmosphere

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study investigates the effects of milling parameters, including rotational speed, milling duration, and ball‐to‐powder ratio, on TiAl particle size and morphology in an XHV‐equivalent atmosphere. The creation of oxide‐free surfaces enhances the mechanical properties of green bodies.
