Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

VIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

Detection of bacteria with molecular methods in prosthetic joint infection: sonication fluid better than periprosthetic tissue

Acta Orthopaedica, 2016
Background and purpose — The correct diagnosis of prosthetic joint infection (PJI) can be difficult because bacteria form a biofilm on the surface of the implant.

Revision Risk Following Total Hip Arthroplasty in Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis: A Cohort Study From the Australian Orthopaedic Association National Joint Replacement Registry

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is one of the most successful orthopaedic procedures and provides good functional outcomes in both rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoarthritis (OA) patients. However, RA patients face higher risks of adverse post‐operative outcomes.

One-year mortality and Periprosthetic infection rates after Total knee Arthroplasty in Cancer patients: a population-based cohort study

BMC Cancer, 2018
Background Knowledge on periprosthetic infection and mortality rate following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is essential for justifying this treatment in patients with cancer; however, relevant data from population-based studies are lacking.

Italian Patients Journey for Gene Therapy in Haemophilia A

Haemophilia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Gene therapy (GT) provides sustained FVIII levels without repeated infusions in Hemophilia A (HA) patients thus overcoming a major limitation of replacement therapy. However, issues remain e.g., patient selection criteria, duration and variability of transgene expression, quality of life and long‐term safety.

Creating Perforations in the Sclerotic Region of the Proximal Tibia During Total Knee Arthroplasty to Enhance Prosthesis Stability

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1397-1405, May 2025.
Abnormal stress in the proximal tibia modifies the bone mineral density distribution pattern, and drilling in the sclerotic region during total knee arthroplasty is correlated with enhanced prosthesis stability. ABSTRACT Objective In patients with varus deformity of the knee, the redistribution of the subchondral bone mineral density (BMD) of the tibia

Retrospective Analysis of Pseudotumor of the Hip: Clinical Management and Outcomes

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
The surgical revision treatment of patients affected by pseudotumor guarantees a good functional result with a low risk of failure of the new implant. However, pseudotumor requires a systematic and efficient surgical approach to be quickly and successfully resolved.
