Abstract With an expected increase in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) procedures, revision TKA (rTKA) procedures continue to be a burden on the United States health care system. The evolution of surgical techniques and prosthetic designs has, however, provided paradigm shift etiology failure mechanisms TKA. This review can shed light current reasons for revision, which may lead insights how improve outcomes lower future risks. We will primarily focus epidemiology rTKA present time, but we also...
Cognitive impairment is a common health problem among older adults. Previous studies have proven the association between sleep quality and cognitive impairment, but specific underlying mechanisms need to be further explored. This study aimed examine relationship mediating effect of frailty in this rural Data from cross-sectional conducted areas Shandong Province September December 2023. A total 695 adults were included. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) was used measure quality....
Abstract Background General practitioners are the gatekeepers of health residents. This study aims to evaluate trend and equity general ' allocation from 2012 2017 in China provide a reference for regional planning rational distribution practitioners. Methods We extracted data 22 provinces, 5 autonomous regions, 4 municipalities mainland China. The population geographical area were taken Statistical Yearbook. Health Lorenz curve, Gini coefficient, agglomeration degree used analyze data....
Abstract Robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty (RA-TKA) has been shown to improve the accuracy of bone resection, reduce radiographic outliers, and decrease iatrogenic injury. However, it also that RA-TKA surgical times can be longer than manual surgery during adoption. The purpose this article was investigate (1) characteristics operative time curves trends, noting amount surgeons who improved, for those performed at least 12 cases (based on initial modeling); (2) proportion RA achieved...
Abstract Purpose The gold standard to decrease total joint arthroplasty (TJA) periprosthetic infection (PJI) is preoperative antibiotic prophylaxis. Despite substantial prevention efforts, rates of PJIs are increasing. While cefazolin the drug choice for prophylaxis, adjunctive vancomycin therapy has been used in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) endemic areas. However, studies examining these combinations lacking. Therefore, we sought examine complications among plus and...
Vulnerable populations, including patients from a lower socioeconomic status, are at an increased risk for infection, revision surgery, mortality, and complications after total joint arthroplasty (TJA). An effective metric to quantify compare these populations has not yet been established in the literature. The Area Deprivation Index (ADI) provides composite area-based indicator of disadvantage consisting 17 U.S. Census indicators, based on education, employment, housing quality, poverty. We...
Background : To assess the joint and stratified associations between cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), incidence, mortality from cancer in never, former, current male smokers. Methods CRF (treadmill exercise test) was assessed 4694 men (never smokers [n = 1715]; former 1602], 32.4 [30.5] pack-years; 1377], 40.3 [26] pack-years) aged 58.1 (17.3) years, prospectively followed for 12.7 (7.5) years. Multivariable Cox hazard models were analyzed. Results In analyses, where high never used as a...
Robotic-arm assisted total knee arthroplasty (RATKA) has the potential to enhance radiographic, clinical, and patient-reported outcomes. The purpose of this study was compare resource utilization, episode-of-care (EOC) costs, readmissions, complications robotic-arm manual TKA (MTKA).TKA procedures were identified from a private payer claims database. RATKA required both robotic arm-assisted procedure code 60-day pre-operative computed tomography scan. Propensity score matching (1:5 MTKA)...
Abstract Background Retinal biomarkers of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) have been extensively investigated in recent decades. nervous and vascular parameters can reflect brain conditions, they facilitate early diagnosis AD. Objective Our study aimed to evaluate the difference retinal neuro-layer thickness patients with AD healthy controls (HCs). Methods Non-invasive optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) was used determine combined nerve fiber layer (RNFL) ganglion cell (GCL), as well...
Robotic arm-assisted total knee arthroplasty (RATKA) has demonstrated improved patient-reported outcome measures. Less evidence been reported on how frequently patients return to complex activities of daily living. Our purposes were investigate (1) hospital lengths stay (LOSs) (2) discharge dispositions and (3) the rates postoperative time intervals at which returned driving working.A 50 RATKA who employed prior surgery included. Outcomes included LOS, dispositions, driving, work.A 48 (96%)...
