Article Abstract

Recent studies may suggest that our conventional knowledge of risk factors for dislocation may need rethinking. Previous studies have demonstrated a large majority of total hip arthroplasty instability with acetabular cups implanted in safe zones. Recently discovered spinopelvic motion is a coordinated biomechanical relationship among acetabular anteversion, pelvic tilt, and lumbar lordosis. Classification includes normal, hypermobile, stiff, stuck standing, stuck sitting, and fused. Normal spinopelvic motion from standing to sitting occurs with hip flexion, posterior sacral tilt, and decreased lumbar lordosis to accommodate a flexed femur and prevent impingement and dislocation. Acetabular cup implantation ideally is adapted based on spinopelvic interactions. This may lower the rate of impingement and subsequent dislocation. These new biomechanical interactions may provide a better understanding of the safe zones of anteversion and inclination.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate treatment indications, compare therapeutic approaches, and assess outcomes in patients with infrarenal penetrating aortic ulcers (iPAUs).

Methods: This was a retrospective, multicentre, observational study of patients with iPAUs treated between January 2018 and December 2022 across 12 European centres. Treatment strategies included open surgical repair (OSR) and endovascular techniques, including balloon expandable stent grafts (BESGs), covered endovascular reconstruction of the aortic bifurcation (CERAB), and endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) using bifurcated or tube grafts.

Background: Accurate acetabular cup orientation in total hip arthroplasty (THA) is crucial for successful outcomes. Intraoperative fluoroscopy may be used to evaluate acetabular cup placement. This study aimed to evaluate the accuracy of purely visual estimation of cup inclination and anteversion using intraoperative fluoroscopy, considering different surgeon experience levels and cup designs.

The epidemiological characteristics of emerging infectious disease outbreaks in recent years have underscored the critical importance of controlling imported infectious diseases. In this study, we implemented dynamic tracking of microbial invasions by monitoring environmental microbes at the customs and ports. From July to September 2024, a total of 126 environmental samples were collected from three ports of entry in Shenzhen, China.

Aim: To provide a structured analysis of the acceptability of transcatheter aortic valve implantation to support clinical conversations, decision making and recovery for older adults with aortic stenosis and their carers.

Background: While transcatheter aortic valve implantation is an effective treatment for heart valve disease, its acceptability to patients and caregivers remains unclear. Understanding the acceptability of clinical procedures is key for influencing patient engagement in self-care and guiding the information and support patients and carers need.

Taking a mine in Guizhou Province as the research background, a combination of similar simulation experiments and numerical simulation was used to analyse the spatial distribution of overburden collapse and the development of fissures during the mining process. The results indicate that: (1) During the mining of the upper coal seam, the overlying rock is not affected by faults, the 'three zones' are significantly developed, the collapse morphology exhibits a typical 'trapezoidal' structure, and the fractures undergo stages of formation, expansion, and closure; (2) The lower coal seam is affected by reverse faults, resulting in asymmetrical overburden collapse patterns and discontinuous fissure development. When mining across faults, periodic pressure is intense, and the stride length is significantly reduced, with severe rock fragmentation near the faults.
