Outcomes of total hip arthroplasty, as a salvage procedure, following failed internal fixation of intracapsular fractures of the femoral neck: a systematic review and meta-analysis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
AIMS: The optimal management of intracapsular fractures of the femoral neck in independently mobile patients remains open to debate. Successful fixation obviates the limitations of arthroplasty for this group of patients.

Season of the year influences infection rates following total hip arthroplasty [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
To research the influence of season of the year on periprosthetic joint infections. METHODS We conducted a retrospective review of the entire Medicare files from 2005 to 2014. Seasons were classified as spring, summer, fall or winter. Regional variations

3D Printing of Bacteriophage‐Loaded Hydrogels: Development of a Local and Long‐Lasting Delivery System

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This research investigates the feasibility of 3D‐printing of a bacteriophage‐containing hydrogel made of alginate and methylcellulose. The printed hydrogels steadily release active bacteriophages for up to 35 days which is beneficial to treat implant‐associated infections.

Immediate results of treatment periprosthetic femoral fractures after hip replacement

open access: yesTravmatologiâ i Ortopediâ Rossii, 2016
Periprosthetic fractures are one of the most serious complications after hip replacement. Nineteen periprosthetic femoral fractures operated on during the period 2011-2015 were followed-up retrospectively.

High periprosthetic bone mineral density measured in immediate postoperative period may not guarantee less periprosthetic bone loss in the proximal femur after cementless total hip arthroplasty – A retrospective study

open access: yesArthroplasty, 2020
Background Total hip arthroplasty is the most common orthopaedic procedure for the end-stage hip diseases. Periprosthetic bone loss is closely related to the increased risk of implant loosening and periprosthetic fractures, but the predictive value of ...

Effectiveness of circular external fixator in periprosthetic fractures around the knee

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2020
Background The incidence of periprosthetic fractures after total joint arthroplasty (TJA) is rising due to an increasing number of TJAs performed annually and the growing elderly population.

Bacteria‐Responsive Nanostructured Drug Delivery Systems for Targeted Antimicrobial Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Bacteria‐responsive nanocarriers are designed to release antimicrobials only in the presence of infection‐specific cues. This selective activation ensures drug release precisely at the site of infection, avoiding premature or indiscriminate release, and enhancing efficacy.

A systematic review of the evidence for single stage and two stage revision of infected knee replacement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: Periprosthetic infection about the knee is a devastating complication that may affect between 1% and 5% of knee replacement. With over 79 000 knee replacements being implanted each year in the UK, periprosthetic infection (PJI) is set to ...

Virulence‐Selective Trap–Capture–Kill Antibacterial Nanostructures With Immune–Metabolic Regulation for Treating Implant‐Associated Infections

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A virulence‐selective antibacterial system based on fascaplysin derivative 14‐modified TiO2 nanostructure (F‐14‐TNA) is developed for treating implant‐associated infections. F‐14‐TNA selectively traps hyperpathogenic bacteria via chemotaxis, captures them electrostatically, and kills them via reactive oxygen species‐mediated pathways.
