The impact of HLA-C matching on donor identification rates in a European Caucasian population

Frontiers in Immunology, 2014
The degree of HLA concordance with the patient has long been known to be the major donor-related prediction factor for the success of hematopoietic stem cell transplantations and, with the progress of HLA typing technology, selection criteria became more

Lower 5-year cup re-revision rate for dual mobility cups compared with unipolar cups: report of 15,922 cup revision cases in the Dutch Arthroplasty Register (2007–2016)

Acta Orthopaedica, 2019
Background and purpose — During revision hip arthroplasty the dual mobility cup (DMC) is widely used to prevent dislocation despite limited knowledge of implant longevity. We determined the 5-year cup re-revision rates of DMC compared with unipolar cups (

Low revision rate of dual mobility cups after arthroplasty for acute hip fractures: report of 11,857 hip fractures in the Dutch Arthroplasty Register (2007–2019)

Acta Orthopaedica, 2020
Background and purpose — Dislocation is one of the most frequent reasons for cup revision after total hip arthroplasty (THA) for an acute fracture. A dual mobility cup (DMC) might reduce this risk.
