0 | Similar effects of rofecoxib and indomethacin on the incidence of heterotopic ossification after hip arthroplasty | AAHKS (4) Acetaminophen | BACKGROUND: Although indomethacin is effective in preventing heterotopic ossification (HO) after primary total hip arthroplasty, side effects are frequently observed. In the last decade a new class of drugs--the COX-2 selective nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs--has been developed. To investigate the effect of these... |
0 | Failed vascularized fibular graft in treatment of osteonecrosis of the femoral head. A histopathological analysis | AAHKS (2) Corticosteroids | PURPOSE: vascularized fibular grafting has been used to treat osteonecrosis of the femoral head in younger patients. Although the results described in the literature are promising, the failure rate is still significant, especially in steroid users. This study was undertaken to learn more, on a histopathological level, ... |
0 | Association between 5-alpha reductase inhibition and risk of hip fracture | Management of Hip Fractures in the Elderly | CONTEXT: For more than 15 years, 5-alpha reductase inhibitors, which block the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone, have been used in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Short-term studies show no effects of these agents on bone metabolism,but long-term data are not available. OBJECTIVE: ... |

0 | Reducing the risk of deep wound infection in primary joint arthroplasty with antibiotic bone cement | Prevention of Orthopaedic Implant Infection in Patients Undergoing Dental Procedures | Despite significant advances in intraoperative antimicrobial procedures, deep wound infection remains the most serious complication associated with primary, cemented total joint arthroplasty. A systematic review was conducted to evaluate studies of antibiotic bone cement prophylaxis for reducing the risk of deep wound ... |
1 | (untitled) | OAK 3 - Non-arthroplasty tx of OAK | BACKGROUND: Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common long-term condition managed in UK general practice. However, care is suboptimal despite evidence that primary care and community-based interventions can reduce OA pain and disability.
OBJECTIVES: The overall aim was to improve primary care management of OA and the heal... |
0 | Can change in FRAX score be used to "treat to target"? A population-based cohort study | Hip Fx in the Elderly 2019 | It is unknown how responsive the Fracture Risk Assessment (FRAX) tool is to osteoporosis treatment (OTX) or whether it can serve as a target for "goal-directed" treatment. We studied 11,049 untreated women aged â?¥50 years undergoing baseline and follow-up DXA examinations in Manitoba, Canada. We identified clinical ri... |
