BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Data from the national joint registries in Australia and England and Wales have revealed inferior medium-term survivorship for metal-on-metal (MoM) total hip arthroplasty (THA) than for metal-on-polyethylene (MoP) THA. Based on data from the Nordic Arthroplasty Register Association (NARA), we compared the revision risk of cementless stemmed THA with MoM and MoP bearings a...

BACKGROUND Total hip arthroplasty (THA) for severe developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is a technically demanding procedure for arthroplasty surgeons, and it is often difficult to reduce the hip joint without soft tissue release due to severe flexion contracture. We performed two-stage THAs in irreducible hips with expected lengthening of the affected limb after THA of over 2.5 cm or with ...

OBJECTIVES Hips with metal-on-metal total hip arthroplasty (MoM THA) have a high rate of adverse local tissue reactions (ALTR), often associated with hypersensitivity reactions. Dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) measures tissue perfusion with the parameter Ktrans (volume transfer constant of contrast agent). Our purpose was 1) to evaluate the feasibility of DCE-MRI ...

In sweet potato, though a number of high yielding varieties are available for cultivation, there is lack information on suitability various to different seasons. The results the study will be useful recommend ideal Field experiments were conducted during Kharif, Rabi and Summer seasons from 2021 2022 with an objective assess seasonal influence growth tuber yield five potato [High Bhu Krishna (V...

Abstract Background Identifying populations with poor muscle recovery after total hip arthroplasty (THA) is important for postoperative physical therapy. Preoperative strength a strong factor that determines strength. However, this effect may depend on other factors. Thus, predictive models interaction terms are accurately predicting This study aimed to develop model lower 12 months THA which i...

A field experiment was conducted to study the effect of a Pseudomonas fluorescens-based biofertilizer on sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas (L) Lam) yield. The application by immersion cuttings before sowing for 0, 5, 10 and 15 minutes with combination doses 50 100% NPK mineral fertilizer in randomized block design three replications (12 treatments-combinations). During harvest (130 days after plant...

OBJECTIVES To determine whether the use of total hip arthroplasty (THA) among individuals with a displaced intracapsular fracture of the femoral neck is based on national guidelines or if there are systematic inequalities. DESIGN Observational cohort study using the National Hip Fracture Database (NHFD). SETTING All hospitals that treat adults with hip fractures in England, Wales, and North...

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...
