Conventional versus highly cross-linked polyethylene in primary total knee replacement : a comparison of revision rates using data from the National Joint Registry for England, Wales, and Northern Ireland [PDF]
There is evidence to support the use of highly cross-linked polyethylene (HXLPE) in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty. However, the benefits for those undergoing total knee arthroplasty are uncertain, with conflicting reports based on previous ...

Abstract Full‐thickness subscapularis tears with advanced fatty infiltration represent one of the most challenging problems in shoulder surgery, in large part because every available treatment option is imperfect. Reverse total shoulder arthroplasty in older patients and tendon transfer in younger individuals without glenohumeral arthritis are ...

Are TKA kinematics during closed kinetic chain exercises associated with patient-reported outcomes? A preliminary analysis [PDF]
BackgroundKinematic patterns after TKA can vary considerably from those of the native knee. It is unknown, however, if there is a relationship between a given kinematic pattern and patient satisfaction after TKA.Questions/purposesIs there an association ...
