Increased radiolucency on conventional radiographs around tibial components does not imply more load‐induced displacement of a total knee arthroplasty

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose After total knee arthroplasty (TKA), radiolucent lines on routine conventional radiographs are commonly interpreted as impaired tibial component fixation, although their relation to implant motion remains unclear. This necessitates a comparison with measured component displacement.

Patients with obesity have a higher risk of periprosthetic joint infection and more frequent polymicrobial infections after knee arthroplasty: A nationwide register‐based study from Denmark

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To compare the 2‐year incidence of (1) revision due to periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) and (2) all‐cause revision after primary knee arthroplasty (KA) in patients with/without obesity and to compare the microbial profiles in early (≤ 90 days) and late (91–730 days) PJI.

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

open access: yesVIEW, 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

open access: yesActa 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.

Pericapsular nerve group block with phenol for non‐operative hip fracture management in patients living with frailty: a prospective multicentre cohort study

open access: yesAnaesthesia, EarlyView.
Summary Introduction The incidence of hip fractures is rising with the ageing population. For patients living with severe frailty and limited life expectancy, non‐operative management is increasingly considered after shared decision‐making. Given the limited availability of long‐term analgesic options, alternative techniques are needed.

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

open access: yesANZ 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.

Musculoskeletal health among adults with cerebral palsy: A systematic review

open access: yesDevelopmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim To describe the burden of, and investigate prognostic factors for, osteoarthritis, osteopenia and/or osteoporosis, spondylosis, and fracture, and to investigate the effectiveness of protocols for monitoring musculoskeletal disorders and interventions for managing osteoarthritis in adults with cerebral palsy (CP).

Two-stage reimplantation in periprosthetic knee infection

open access: yes, 2019
OBJECTIVE: The increasing number of total knee arthroplasties performed yearly worldwide has resulted in a concomitant rise in bacterial infections. Two-stage reimplantation has been reported as the most successful method of treating periprosthetic knee ...

Italian Patients Journey for Gene Therapy in Haemophilia A

open access: yesHaemophilia, 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.

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

open access: yesBMC 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.
