Body Mass Index Modifies the Effect of Hemovac Drainage on Blood Loss After Total Knee Arthroplasty
Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 10, Page 2083-2089, October 2026.In tranexamic acid–treated primary total knee arthroplasty, estimated blood loss increased with rising BMI when no drain was used but remained stable across the BMI range with Hemovac drainage. These findings support a BMI‐based, selective use of drains rather than routine placement.

Synovial pH, lactate, and glucose as adjunct biomarkers to exclude periprosthetic joint infection in hip and knee arthroplasty: a prospective study [PDF]
Background : Synovial pH, glucose, and lactate have been studied in native joint septic arthritis, but studies in periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) are limited.

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 10, Page 2153-2166, October 2026.Standardized drainless DAA‐THA closure using Symmetric PDS Plus is safe and efficient, with “time to clinical dryness” serving as a pragmatic indicator of early healing. Furthermore, bikini incisions significantly improve aesthetics without compromising safety, as wound complication risks are primarily driven by host comorbidities.

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 51, 14 September 2026.Periprosthetic joint infection establishes a sophisticated immunosuppressive network between CXCR4+ PMN‐MDSCs and Bregs, inducing profound CD8+ T cell paralysis. Alendronate effectively disrupts this CXCR4+ PMN‐MDSC–Breg axis by targeting STAT3, thereby restoring local immune surveillance.

Diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infections in clinical practice
, 2012 The diagnosis of a periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) can be challenging, either because of the variable clinical presentation or because of previous antimicrobial treatment interfering with the detection of the pathogen. In recent years, various means

Factors to Consider When Assessing the Diagnostic Accuracy of Synovial Leukocyte Count in Periprosthetic Joint Infection. [PDF]
, 2019 Synovial white blood cell (WBC) count and the percentage of polymorphonuclear leucocytes (PMN%) is one of the diagnostic criteria to diagnose a periprosthetic joint infection (PJI).

Meta-analysis of serum and/or plasma D-dimer in the diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infection
Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2020 Background The purpose of this meta-analysis was to evaluate the diagnostic value of D-dimer in detecting periprosthetic joint infection (PJI). Methods A systematic search and screening of relevant studies was performed in the databases PubMed, Web of ...

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, Volume 34, Issue 9, Page 3314-3321, September 2026.Abstract Purpose Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) offers benefits over total knee arthroplasty (TKA), but some studies indicated higher revision rates, often involving conversion to TKA. The infection risk associated with UKA to TKA conversion compared to primary TKA is not definitively established.

Periprosthetic Knee Infection: Ten Strategies That Work. [PDF]
, 2013 Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is one of the most serious complications following total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The demand for TKA is rapidly increasing, resulting in a subsequent increase in infections involving knee prosthesis.
