OBJECTIVE: To explore the short-term effectiveness of hip revision surgery guided by artificial intelligence preoperative planning (AIHIP) system. METHODS: The clinical data of 22 patients (23 hips) who were admitted between June 2019 and March 2023 and met the selection criteria were retrospectively analyzed. There were 12 males and 10 females with an average age of 69.7 years (range, 44-90 years). There were 19 hips in the first revision, 3 hips in the second revision, and 1 hip in the third revision...

OBJECTIVES: To assess the accuracy and precision of acetabular component placement in robot-assisted surgery total hip arthroplasty (RAS-THA) using three different approaches. METHODS: This study is a secondary analysis from a multicenter, randomized controlled trial comparing the Trex RS Hip 1.0 robot navigation system across different surgical approaches. It involved 145 patients treated at three Chinese medical centers from June 2021 to July 2022. Patients with end-stage joint disease were randomly assigned to either the RAS or control group...

Background and Objectives : The conventional posterior approach in the lateral decubitus position is widely used for femoral neck fractures in femoral hemiarthroplasty. Postoperative dislocation is the major problem with this approach. The conjoined tendon-preserving posterior (CPP) approach is a less invasive surgical approach than the conventional posterior approach to the hip, maintains posterior stability, and preserves short external rotators and joint capsules. However, the mention was required to avoid muscle damage and whether muscle damage affects postoperative dislocation or not...

BACKGROUND: The Pavlik harness has been used for approximately a century to treat developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). Femoral nerve palsy is a documented complication of Pavlik harness use, with an incidence ranging from 2.5% to 11.2%. Rare reports of brachial plexus palsy have also been documented. The primary purpose of the current study was to evaluate the incidence of various nerve palsies in patients undergoing Pavlik harness treatment for DDH. Secondary aims were to identify patient demographic or hip characteristics associated with nerve palsy...

Preserving or preventing declines in bone mineral density (BMD) is imperative. As jumping is a high-impact bone-loading action, this meta-analysis evaluated the efficacy of jump training to improve BMD and bone turnover relative to non-jumping controls in men and women > 18 years, following Preferred Reported Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis guidelines. PubMed and COCHRANE Library databases were searched until February 2022. Fifteen articles (19 jumping-trials) met the predetermined search criteria...

Y-box binding protein-1 (YB-1) is upregulated in glioma and plays an important role in its occurrence and drug resistance. However, the involved regulatory processes and downstream pathways are still unclear. Since various circular RNAs (circRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) also play roles in the pathogenesis of glioma, we hypothesize that YB-1 may exert its function through a circRNA-miRNA-protein interaction network. In this study, we use the RNA binding protein immunoprecipitation assay and quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction to determine the circRNAs involved in the regulation of YB-1 and further elucidate their biological functions...

BACKGROUND: The incidence of aggravation or occurrence of avascular necrosis (AVN) following hardware removal in surgically treated pediatric femoral neck fractures who achieved radiologic consolidation is unknown. This study aimed to investigate the risk factors for this complication. METHODS: Seventy-one pediatric (mean age: 9.8±3.9 y) were retrospectively analyzed. Risk factors (age, sex, laterality, severity of initial displacement, type of fracture, time from trauma to reduction, reduction and fixation method, quality of reduction, time required to achieve radiologic union, duration of hardware retention, presence of AVN before hardware removal and follow-up time) were recorded...

AIM: Prognosis of treated hyperglycemia in pregnancy (HIP) may differ according to whether diagnosis following an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) is based on high fasting and/or high post-load glucose values. METHODS: From a multiethnic prospective study, we included 8,339 women screened for HIP after 22 weeks of gestation. We evaluated the risk of large-for-gestational-age (LGA) infant (primary endpoint) and other adverse pregnancy outcomes according to HIP status in four groups defined as follows: no HIP (n = 6,832, reference); isolated fasting HIP (n = 465), isolated post-load HIP (n = 646), and fasting and post-load HIP (n = 396)...

Long-distance "thru-hiking" has extraordinary physical demands and has become increasingly popular. This report describes a man (55 y) who thru-hiked the Pacific Crest Trail in 2021 and was at risk of developing the relative energy deficiency in sport (RED-S) syndrome. Hiking distance was 3767 km over 128 d. Eighty-eight days (69%) were full days of hiking, covering 38±8 km/d (mean±SD) in 7.9±1.6 h/d. Exercise energy expenditure above rest (heart rate vs indirect calorimetry regression method) was 2834±1518 kcal/d, total energy expenditure was 5702±1323 kcal/d, and energy intake was 4141 kcal/d...

INTRODUCTION: Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) refers to congenital and/or developmental hip instability that can result in hip joint subluxation or dislocation. When detected neonatally, conservative treatment with hip bracing can restore normal hip anatomy. Missed detection of DDH in the neonatal period or late development of DDH often requires surgical intervention to correct the abnormal anatomy. Furthermore, despite surgical intervention, residual sequelae may persist leading to early osteoarthritis of the hip joint requiring joint replacement surgery...

BACKGROUND: The study was done on children with cerebral palsy in the ages of 2-18 years, with focus on hip subluxation. The objectives of the study were to look at the distribution of different types of CP in the target population; the prevalence of hip subluxation and its association with types and severity of CP. METHODS: This is a cross sectional descriptive observational study, done on a hospital out-patient setting. Children with cerebral palsy of ages 2-18 years were recruited and clinically evaluated...

BACKGROUND: Full-thickness acetabular cartilage lesions are common findings during primary surgical treatment of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI). PURPOSE: To evaluate clinical outcomes after acetabular microfracture performed during FAI surgery in a prospective, multicenter cohort. STUDY DESIGN: Cohort Study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS: Patients with FAI who had failed nonoperative management were prospectively enrolled in a multicenter cohort...

BACKGROUND: Dual mobility (DM) has been proven to reduce dislocation risk after total hip arthroplasty (THA). In the last decade modular DM (modDM) constructs have been introduced to allow the use of DM articulation with standard cementless acetabular shells. However, clinical evidence of modDM effectiveness is still low in primary THA and concerns about implant-related complications are increasing. This retrospective comparative multicenter study is aimed to investigate if the dislocation rate after primary THA could be reduced with modDM in comparison to standard bearing (SB)...

Most women do not qualify for pharmacologic osteoporosis treatment until more than a decade after menopause, by which time they will have lost up to 30% of their bone mass and may have already sustained fractures. Short or intermittent courses of bisphosphonate therapy, initiated around the time of menopause, might prevent excessive bone loss and lower long-term fracture risk. We undertook a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to determine the effects of nitrogen-containing bisphosphonates on fracture incidence, bone mineral density (BMD), and bone turnover markers in early menopausal women (ie, perimenopausal or <5 years postmenopausal) over ≥12 months...

AIMS: The aims of the study were to report for a cohort aged younger than 40 years: 1) indications for HRA; 2) patient-reported outcomes in terms of the modified Harris Hip Score (HHS); 3) dislocation rate; and 4) revision rate. METHODS: This retrospective analysis identified 267 hips from 224 patients who underwent an hip resurfacing arthroplasty (HRA) from a single fellowship-trained surgeon using the direct lateral approach between 2007 and 2019. Inclusion criteria was minimum two-year follow-up, and age younger than 40 years...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Previous studies on hip survival following periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) have reported isolated data for the treatment of 1 underlying condition, making comparison between patient groups difficult. We report the hip survival after PAO in patients with acetabular dysplasia (AD), acetabular retroversion (AR), congenital dislocation of the hip (CDH), and Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease (LCPD) with total hip arthroplasty (THA) as primary endpoint and secondarily the risk of subsequent hip-related operations other than THA...

BACKGROUND: There are many therapeutic options for dislocation following total hip arthroplasty (THA). The aim of this study was to evaluate the results of revision surgery for dislocated hips. METHODS: Between November 2001 and December 2020, 71 consecutive revision hip surgeries were performed at our institution for recurrent dislocation following THA. We conducted a retrospective study of all 65 patients (71 hips), who were followed for a mean of 4.7 ± 3...

To study the effects of low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 5 (LRP5) gene mutations on bone, and to open up our view of LRP5 and Wnt pathways on bone mass regulation. Three patients with increased bone mineral density or thickened bone cortex were included, who were 30-year-old, 22-year-old and 50-year-old men, respectively. The latter two patients were son and father of a same family. The characteristics of bone X-rays were evaluated in detail. Bone turnover markers were detected, such as procollagen type 1 amino-terminal peptide (P1NP), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and type 1 collagen carboxyl terminal peptide (β-CTX)...

The Fracture Risk Assessment Tool (FRAX®) was created to predict major osteoporotic fractures (MOF) and hip fractures in the general population. Whether FRAX accurately predicts fractures in men with prostate cancer is unknown. Our objective was to assess the performance of FRAX for predicting incident fractures in men with prostate cancer. Men from the Manitoba Bone Mineral Density (BMD) Registry (1996-2018) with prostate cancer diagnoses in the 3 years prior to dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) were identified...

INTRODUCTION: With modern antiretroviral therapy (ART), HIV has become a chronic condition. Previous studies have not definitively assessed the risk of periarticular osteonecrosis (ON) that ART poses to the HIV population. METHODS: A retrospective case-control study using the PearlDiver database was done using International Classification of Diseases codes. Patients were selected from 2010 to 2019 with a diagnosis of periarticular ON and HIV taking ART (HIV+/ART+) and not taking ART (HIV+/ART-)...
