Lower activation of caspase-1 by Staphylococcus epidermidis isolated from prosthetic joint infections compared to commensals.

open access: yes, 2018
Nosocomial sequence types of Staphylococcus epidermidis dominate in prosthetic joint infections. We examined caspase-1 activation in human neutrophils after incubation with Staphylococcus epidermidis isolated from prosthetic joint infections and normal ...

The unsuspected prosthetic joint infection

open access: yes, 2017
Aims Positive cultures are not uncommon in cases of revision total knee and hip arthroplasty (TKA and THA) for presumed aseptic causes. The purpose of this study was to assess the incidence of positive intra-operative cultures in presumed aseptic ...

Glucagon‐Like Peptide‐1 Receptor Agonist Use in Obese Patients Is Associated With Decreased Risk of Revision and Retears After Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair

open access: yesArthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To evaluate the impact of preoperative glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonist (GLP‐1 RA) use on medical complications, emergency department use, and orthopaedic complications in obese patients undergoing arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. Methods Obese patients (defined by relevant ICD‐10 codes and confirmed by body mass index measurements ...

Pulmonary Tuberculosis with Delayed Tuberculosis Infection of Total Knee Arthroplasty

open access: yesJournal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2007
Tuberculous prosthetic joint infection is rare. While early diagnosis is critical for treatment, it is usually delayed. Here, we present the case of a 72-year-old patient who underwent total knee arthroplasty for his right knee due to degenerative ...

A Survival Epidemiology Framework for Oral and Oropharyngeal Cancer

open access: yesCancer Nexus, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oral and oropharyngeal cancer remains a major global public health burden, but the literature addressing this disease is still organized predominantly around who develops it rather than around what determines life after diagnosis. That imbalance is consequential because diagnosis initiates a new scientific problem.

Early prosthetic joint infection due to Ureaplasma urealyticum: Benefit of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis for diagnosis

open access: yesJournal of Microbiology, Immunology and Infection, 2019
Detection of the most frequently bacteria involved in prosthetic joint infection (PJI) is usually performed by conventional cultures. We report a case of early PJI due to Ureaplasma urealyticum, diagnosed by 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, which ...
