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

Knee 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.

Second‐Knee C‐Reactive Protein After 1‐Week Staged Bilateral Total Knee Arthroplasty

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
In 1‐week staged bilateral total knee arthroplasty, the second knee shows higher absolute postoperative C‐reactive protein, a difference that appears driven substantially by the unresolved inflammatory floor carried over from the first operation. This paired pattern supports cautious interpretation of modest second‐knee CRP elevations during early ...

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

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, Volume 34, Issue 10, Page 3627-3636, October 2026.
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 ...
