High rate of return to low‐impact physical activity or sports after total and unicompartmental knee arthroplasty: A systematic review with meta‐analysis

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Rates and time to return to physical activity (PA) or sports following knee arthroplasty remain poorly explored in the current literature. This systematic review with meta‐analysis aimed to synthesise the return to PA or sports after knee arthroplasty, comparing between total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and unicompartmental knee ...

Synovial interleukin‐6 point‐of‐care testing, alone and combined with D‐dimer, supports rapid diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infection

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Data on the reliability of point‐of‐care (POC) tests for the rapid diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infections (PJI) using synovial fluid (SF) D‐dimer (DD), interleukin 6 (IL‐6) and procalcitonin (PCT) are limited. This study aimed to address this issue by evaluating the diagnostic accuracy of POC tests for SF DD, IL‐6 and PCT in ...

Targeting ligament boundaries rather than alignment boundaries in augmented‐reality‐assisted total knee arthroplasty ensures comparable gait patterns between operated and contralateral limbs

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Modern personalised total knee arthroplasty (TKA) techniques aim to mimic natural knee kinematics by focusing on soft‐tissue dynamics rather than static alignment. However, a consistent definition of the optimal ligamentous balance has not yet been established.

Single‐stage revision for chronic fistulized infected total knee arthroplasty achieves infection‐free survival comparable to non‐fistulized cases

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The presence of a sinus tract in chronic periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) has traditionally been considered a contraindication to single‐stage total knee arthroplasty (TKA) revision. However, an increasing number of surgeons are now performing single‐stage revisions in this context, despite limited comparative data.

A standardized surgical technique for DAIR improves treatment success rates in acute periprosthetic knee infection

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Results after debridement, antibiotics and implant retention (DAIR) for acute periprosthetic knee joint infections (PJIs) vary widely. Although data are limited, surgeon expertise and surgical technique likely influence outcomes. Standardized DAIR performed by surgeons within a multidisciplinary team (MDT) dedicated to the treatment of

Contemporary patellofemoral arthroplasty is associated with lower revision rates compared with the previous decade: A meta‐analysis using revisions per 100 component‐years

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The aim of this study was to assess global data on patellofemoral arthroplasty (PFA) survival a decade after a prior investigation by Reihs et al. using the same endpoints and data sources, aiming to quantify potential changes in implant survival over this period.

Effects of a Powered Knee–Ankle Prosthesis on Intact Joint Biomechanics Across Sustained Activities of Daily Life: A Case Series

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering
Lower-limb prosthesis users often overuse their intact joints due to the lack of positive work generated by their devices. This overreliance has been shown to increase joint loading, degeneration, and pain.

Creating adjusted scores targeting mobility empowerment (CASTLE 2): Using response probabilities to expand interpretation of prosthetic limb users survey of mobility (PLUS‐M) scores for individuals with lower limb amputation

open access: yesPM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Prosthetists and other rehabilitation specialists often need to identify which aspects of mobility should be prioritized in order to make meaningful changes in a patient's health outcomes. By comparing a patient's responses on the Prosthetic Limb Users Survey of Mobility (PLUS‐M) to predicted responses, clinicians can identify areas
