Pyroptosis, a newly discovered form of cell death, can be induced by reactive oxygen species. Melatonin protects nucleus pulposus cells from pyroptosis via the melatonin receptor and upregulates nuclear factor erythroid 2–related factor 2. #BJR #Spine ow.ly/Bxlj50Ws2K5
Small rotational movements can result in large decreases in cement-implant contact surface area. Simulation showed that these decreases in contact area can increase the maximal stresses in the cement mantle by up to 200%. #BJR @Bloch_ortho @NottsHipKnee ow.ly/AgzH50WsQYt
Placing the pubic cut 5 mm medial to the iliopectineal eminence during periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) reduces the risk of pubic root displacement, and may help reduce the risk of post-PAO anterior hip syndrome, enhancing postoperative recovery. #BJO #Hip ow.ly/UP8K50WvmVe
"Although we successfully confirmed several risk factors in this dataset, including breech presentation, sex, & birthweight, the logistic regression models were unable to fully explain the variation in the prevalence of DDH". #DDH #Dysplasia #PedsOrtho ow.ly/R60j50WkjJv
What got you talking in June? 💬 In this paper, the authors look at the outcomes of nonoperative treatment of Perthes’ disease. Read it now! #PerthesDisease #HipReplacement #Arthroplasty #BJJ ow.ly/OPKy50WvixC
In #BJ360 we summarize a study from China which evaluates the outcomes of total humeral arthroplasties for patients with primary sarcomas of the upper limb. Check out further research in the Oncology Roundup! #Oncology #Sarcoma #Arthroplasty boneandjoint.org.uk/Article/10.130…
"By combining education, technology, and public discourse, the surgical community can evolve from being mere spectators to becoming active participants in communal welfare". #BJ360 #Orthopedics #Surgeons #Healthcare boneandjoint.org.uk/Article/10.130…
G-protein-coupled oestrogen receptor-1 (GPER-1) plays an essential role in long bone development during early puberty. GPER-1 activation promotes chondrocyte proliferation and suppresses hypertrophy in the growth plate. #BJR #Orthopedics #Research ow.ly/PEBo50WsR44
This paper shows that the machine learning tool BoneFinder can automatically calculate Reimers migration percentage and head-shaft angle with similar accuracy to clinicians. #MachineLearning #CerebralPalsy #Pediatrics ow.ly/q3Wo50WkiJa
Among the commercially available growth factors, bone morphogenetic protein-2 treatment may be superior to platelet-derived growth factor treatment for the management of nonunion and bone defects. #Bone #GrowthFactor #Orthopedics #BJJ ow.ly/yG4G50Wki70
The aim of this study is to systematically review the existing literature discussing the environmental impact of orthopaedic surgery and describing current sustainable practices in orthopaedic surgery. #BJO #OrthoTwitter #Environment #Sustainability ow.ly/hyTI50WsI5w
Despite being designed for cuff tear arthropathy, reverse shoulder arthroplasty is being used for a range of indications in the UK. Read the most downloaded paper form last month's #BJO issue now! #ShoulderArthroplasty #UK #Surgery ow.ly/O1J950WsuEU
PCBP1-AS1 is responsible for the development of osteoporosis and promotes its progression by inducing p21-activated kinase 2 expression via competitively binding to miR-126-5p. #BJR #OpenAccess #Research #Biology ow.ly/fRGh50Ws2TC
Comminuted radial head fractures treated with bipolar radial head arthroplasty show favourable clinical outcomes, including improved function, minimal pain, and high patient satisfaction. #BJO #Elbow #Fracture #Surgery #Patients ow.ly/Ycut50WjQ4l
In the most downloaded #BJJ paper from June, the authors found that the successful treatment of an infected cementless THA seems feasible using a single-stage revision with the addition of intra-articular antibiotic infusion. #HipArthroplasty #THA ow.ly/NchR50WstkH
Tranexamic acid influences antibiotic efficacy against both planktonic bacteria and biofilms, with effects varying by antibiotic and bacterial strain. These findings underscore the complexity of drug interactions in PJI treatment. #BJR #Infection #FOAMed ow.ly/JngC50WsQPL
We compared the risks of re-revision and mortality between two-stage and single-stage revision surgeries among patients with infected primary hip arthroplasty. #BJR #Surgery #Infection #Healthcare ow.ly/i4tR50WrU3r
