Article Abstract

Purpose: One of the major problems in revision total hip arthroplasty (THA) is severe acetabular bone loss. The aim of our study was to evaluate the clinical outcomes of revision THA using a Kerboull-type reinforcement device (KT plate) and allogeneic structural bone graft.

Methods: This retrospective study evaluated 48 hips that underwent revision THA using a KT plate and allogeneic structural bone graft between 2008 and 2016, with a median follow-up of 6.2 years (range 3-12.6 years). Functional outcome was assessed using the Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) hip score. Postoperative and follow-up radiographs were compared to assess migration and breakage of the implant.

Results: The mean JOA hip score improved from 45.6 (±16.3) points before surgery to 72.1 (±11.9) points at the most recent follow-up examination ( < 0.001). Two hips (4.2%) underwent re-revision THA because of cup loosening due to breakage of the KT plate. A total of 13 hips (27.1%) were classified as radiological failures. Binomial logistic regression analysis showed that a Kawanabe classification of stage 4, which indicates massive bone defects in the weight-bearing area, was a risk factor for radiological failure (odds ratio: 4.57; 95% confidence interval: 1.01-26.35).

Conclusions: A KT plate with an allogeneic structural bone graft is a useful method of acetabular reconstruction in revision THA that restores bone stock and improves hip function. Our findings indicated that a Kawanabe classification of stage 4 was a risk factor for radiological failure of the implant.

Cell-free DNA (cfDNA) consists of fragmented nuclear and mitochondrial DNA circulating in the bloodstream, primarily originating from hematopoietic cells. While cfDNA analysis has transformed diagnostic medicine, its presence in transfused blood products introduces emerging clinical concerns. Donor-derived cfDNA may persist in transfusion recipients and contribute to transfusion-associated microchimerism, defined as the long-term presence of donor genetic material in recipient tissues or circulation.

Autologous nerve transplantation is currently recognized as the gold standard for treating severe peripheral nerve injuries in clinical practice. However, challenges such as a limited supply of donors, complications in the donor area, and the formation of neuromas necessitate the optimization of existing transplantation strategies. Additionally, the development of new and promising repair methods is a critical issue in the field of peripheral nerve research.

In clinical trials allogeneic mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) from young and healthy donors have shown promise to repair the heart following a heart attack. However, immune rejection of transplanted MSCs has prevented the clinical translation of stem cells-based therapies for cardiac patients. Therefore, strategies to improve survival of implanted stem cells in the heart would be of immense therapeutic value.

This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the efficacy of a cognitive training program using video games in improving neuropsychological, neurological, immunological, and inflammatory parameters in childhood cancer survivors. This study will recruit 56 patients aged 8-17 years who have completed cancer treatment 1-8 years prior to enrollment. Participants will be randomized to either the video game intervention or waiting group.

Intestinal dysbiosis has been associated with both the effectiveness and toxicity of immunotherapy in cancer patients, inspiring multiple trials investigating fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) in these patients. FMT restores microbial community structures damaged by antibiotics and enriches the microbiota with beneficial bacteria. However, the precise mechanism through which FMT exerts its effects and provides clinical benefits remains incompletely understood.
