BACKGROUND The Hip and Knee Registry is an observational database comprising data on practices of US orthopedic surgeons during 1996 to 2001. We examined trends in the use of prophylaxis for venous thromboembolism (VTE) among patients who underwent primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) or total knee arthroplasty (TKA). METHODS Data on 9,327 THA and 13,846 TKA patients were submitted between 19...

Abstract In this article, we study THA-surfaces in the Galilean space

Abstract. Debridement, antibiotics, and implant retention (DAIR) is a procedure to treat periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) after total hip arthroplasty (THA) or knee (TKA). The timing between the primary DAIR likely determinant for its successful outcome. However, optimal of chance success still remain unclear. We aimed assess risk re-revision within 1 year evaluate in THA TKA. used data fro...

In primary total hip arthroplasty (THA), dual-modular stems were introduced to better restore stability, femoral offset, and leg length. This entry highlights the gathered knowledge about related complications in combinations with titanium (Ti) cobalt-chrome (CoCr) exchangeable necks. The reasons for a modular neck failure are multifactorial. Some of still on market despite fact th these design...

purpose: developmental dysplasia of the hip (ddh) increases the risk of secondary degenerative changes and subsequent total hip arthroplasty. the postoperative quality of life in patients with ddh who have been born and grown with this disability and adapted to it during the life, is one of the most challenging issues. this study aimed to compare the quality of life of patients with ddh before ...

research was conducted during 1999 to 2009 to develop and introduce a new common millet (panicum miliaceum) cultivar suitable for areas with short growing seasons in iran. several common millet populations collected from different locations of iran were evaluated in research farm of seed and plant improvement institute in karaj and based on yield, agronomic traits and tolerance to abiotic stres...

Primary cultures of rat cerebral cortical cells and cerebellar granule cells die by an apoptotic mechanism after more than 2 weeks in cultures in the absence of medium change and glucose supplement, a process termed age-induced apoptosis of cultured neurons. Our preliminary study has shown that age-induced apoptosis of cerebellar granule cells is protected by pretreatment with tetrahydroaminoac...

An unusual histological appearance was found by Krfiger (1929) and by Fiirl inger (1930) (see also Krfiger et al., 1933, and Krfiger, 1952) to be characterist ic of a propor t ion of the muscle fibers in those muscles of the frog tha t are able (Sommerkamp, 1928) to give long lasting, slow contractions. This unusual appearance was named "Fe lders t ruk tur" to distinguish it from the usual "F i...
