ConclusionThe ATA tibial component rotation measurement was the most reliable of those studied. BFA, TE_PTCA and BC_PTCA were reliable measures for TKA femoral and combined rotation. The presence of a minimal rotation between the TKA components (BC_PTCA) and a small femoral ER or tibial IR predicted a successful KSS outcome.Level of evidence II.

Anti-resorptive therapy in the osteometabolic patient affected by periodontitis. A joint position paper of the Italian Society of Orthopaedics and Traumatology (SIOT) and the Italian Society of Periodontology and Implantology (SIdP)
AbstractThis joint report from the Italian Society of Orthopaedics and Traumatology (SIOT) and the Italian Society of Periodontology and Implantology (SIdP) aims for a consensus around the scientific rationale and clinical strategy for the management of osteoporotic patients affected by periodontitis who are undergoing anti-resorptive (AR) therapy to manage the risk of the occurrence of a medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaws (MRONJ). Osteoporosis and periodontitis are chronic diseases with a high prevalence in aging patients, and they share some of the same pathogenetic mechanisms based upon inflammation. Available...

Joint fluid interleukin-6 combined with the neutral polymorphonuclear leukocyte ratio (PMN%) as a diagnostic index for chronic periprosthesis infection after arthroplasty
ConclusionsJoint fluid IL-6 combined with PMN% can be used as an auxiliary method to detect chronic infection around the prosthesis after hip/knee arthroplasty.Level of evidencePatients who underwent hip/knee revision at the First Hospital of Chongqing Medical University for periprosthetic infection or aseptic failure of the prosthesis after hip/knee arthroplasty from January 2018 to January 2020 were included.Trial registration This study was approved by the ethics committee of the First Hospital of Chongqing Medical University on September 26, 2018 (local ethics committee number: 20187101) and registered with the China C...

Significant race and gender differences in anterior cruciate ligament tibial footprint location: a 3D-based analysis
ConclusionsThe significant race- and gender-specific differences in the ACL tibial footprint should be taken in consideration during anatomic ACL reconstruction. The ARLM and MTS are reliable intraoperative landmarks for identifying the tibial ACL footprint. Caucasians and females might be more prone to iatrogenic ARLM injury.Level of evidence: III, cohort study.Trial registration: This study has been approved by the ethical research committee of the General Hospital of Southern Theater Command of PLA under the code: [2019] No.10.

Factors associated with mortality after proximal femoral fracture
AbstractProximal femoral fractures are a serious complication, especially for elderly patients. Therefore, we have aimed to answer the following research question: What is the postfracture mortality rate in the elderly population and what are associated risk factors? For this, proximal femoral fractures that occurred between 1 January 2009 and 31 December 2019 were identified from the Medicare Physician Service Records database. The Kaplan –Meier (KM) method with the Fine and Gray subdistribution adaptation was used to determine rates of mortality. A semiparametric Cox regression model was applied, incorporating 23 measu...

Comparison of four different screw configurations for the fixation of Fulkerson osteotomy: a finite element analysis
ConclusionsA divergent screw configuration in which the upper screw is inserted perpendicular to the osteotomy plane and the lower screw is inserted perpendicular to the posterior tibial cortex might be a better option for the fixation of Fulkerson osteotomy.Level of evidence Level V, mechanism-based reasoning.

Comparison of mortality rate and septic and aseptic revisions in total hip arthroplasties for osteoarthritis and femoral neck fracture: an analysis of the German Arthroplasty Registry
ConclusionIn femoral neck fractures treated with THA, a significant higher mortality, as well as septic and aseptic failure rate, was demonstrated compared with prosthesis for the therapy of osteoarthritis. Increased Elixhauser comorbidity score and BMI are the main influencing factors for development of septic or aseptic failure and can represent a potential approach for prevention measures.Level of evidence: Level III, Prognostic.

Pipkin type III femoral head fracture: which treatment strategy can be recommended?
ConclusionLimited by the high incidence of osteonecrosis of the femoral head, it is difficult to achieve satisfactory functional outcomes when treating Pipkin type III femoral head fractures using ORIF, and a primary THA may be considered. However, for younger patients, considering the survivorship of prosthesis, ORIF may be recommended with the proviso that the patient is fully informed of the high complication rate associated with this procedure.Level of evidence: IV.
