The Effects of Surgeon Workforce Diversity on Total Joint Arthroplasty Patient Demographics.
Hiring an underrepresented-minority arthroplasty surgeon markedly increased the proportion of minority patients treated, suggesting workforce diversity improves care access.
The EQ-5D-3L shows a ceiling effect in nearly half of THA patients by one year, limiting its sensitivity for detecting improvement in higher-functioning patients.
Persistent or non-resolving postoperative neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio elevation after hip fracture hemiarthroplasty is strongly associated with higher mortality and medical complication rates.
In 233,841 TKAs, medium-viscosity cement had the highest aseptic loosening risk, while antibiotic cement showed no benefit for loosening or infection.
Inactive patient portal use and preoperative opioid use predicted noncompletion of 1-year PROMs after joint arthroplasty, identifying targets to improve registry data capture.
A tibia-first, gap-balanced patient-specific alignment in robotic TKA balanced 98% of knees, far exceeding mechanical, kinematic, and functional alignment strategies.
Review tracing evolving periprosthetic joint infection definitions, advocating a probability-based diagnostic paradigm since no single gold standard exists.
