Oral Postoperative Antibiotic Prophylaxis for Outpatient Total Hip and Knee Arthroplasty: Describing Current Practices
Despite an increase in outpatient total hip arthroplasty (THA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA), large-scale data are lacking on current practice for antibiotic prophylaxis prescribing. We aimed to describe current oral antibiotic prophylaxis practices nationally for outpatient THA and TKA. (Source: The Journal of Arthroplasty)

Chronic Oral Corticoteroid Use and 10-Year Incidence of Major Complications Following Total Knee Arthroplasty
Oral corticosteroids are the primary treatment for several autoimmune conditions. The risk of long-term implant, bone health, and infectious-related complications in patients taking chronic oral corticosteroids before total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is unknown. We compared the 10-year cumulative incidence of revision, periprosthetic joint infection (PJI), fragility fracture (FF), and periprosthetic fracture (PPF) following TKA in patients who had and did not have preoperative chronic oral corticosteroid use.

AAHKS Surgical Techniques & Technologies Award: Inferior Screw Fixation Decreases Acetabular Component Failure Following Revision Total Hip Arthroplasty
Adjunctive screw fixation has been shown to be reliable in achieving acetabular component stability in revision total hip arthroplasty (THA). The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of inferior screw placement on acetabular component failure following revision THA. We hypothesized that inferior screw fixation would decrease acetabular failure rates. (Source: The Journal of Arthroplasty)

Ceramic-on-Ceramic Total Hip Arthroplasty Using a Double Tapered, Proximally Coated Stem: 15 to 24-year Clinical and Radiologic Follow-up
This study evaluates the long-term (average 18 year) outcomes of ceramic-on-ceramic hip arthroplasty using uncemented shells and stems. Despite an impressive 20-year cumulative percent revision (CPR) of 5.9%, the hydroxyapatite proximally coated femoral components evaluated in this study have seen declining use since 2003.

Letter to the Editor on “Dislocation Following Anterior and Posterior Total Hip Arthroplasty in the Setting of Spinal Deformity and Stiffness: Evolving Trends Using a High-Risk Protocol at a Single Tertiary Center”
This study concluded that in patients who have spinal stiffness, classified as the 2B-hip spine group, the history of lumbar fusion is significantly associated with a higher dislocation rate, while the surgical approach and utilizing dual mobility bearing were not significantly associated with the risk of dislocation.

Present and Future Optimization of Orthopaedic Care Through Machine Learning Algorithms
In recent years, the editorial team at The Journal of Arthroplasty has had the privilege of evaluating and publishing a growing volume of high-quality scientific material pertaining to artificial intelligence (AI). While technology has long supported orthopaedic consultation, new research is exploring recent advancements in AI to apply to orthopaedic care. Machine learning (ML), a subdomain of AI, has gained traction in orthopaedic surgery fields worldwide. The potential of AI in orthopaedic surgery extends far beyond conventional practices, offering innovative improvements during consultations. (Source: The Journal of Arthroplasty)

The Association of Dental Caries or Dental Implant Placement Within One Year of Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty on Medical and Implant Complications
Total hip arthroplasty (THA) adverse events among patients who have dental diagnoses remain unclear. We sought to determine if dental caries or dental implant placements increased: 1) 90-day medical complications; 2) 90-day readmissions; and 3) 2-year implant-related complications, including periprosthetic joint infections (PJIs) after THA.
