Church NL, Prasad A, Jones NG. On the design of low modulus Ti-Nb-Au alloys for biomedical applications. J Mech Behav Biomed Mater 2024; 157:106633. [PMID: 38943903 DOI: 10.1016/j.jmbbm.2024.106633] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/18/2024] [Revised: 06/06/2024] [Accepted: 06/18/2024] [Indexed: 07/01/2024]
Abstract
Developing new low modulus structures is important for reducing the risk of aseptic loosening during loading of implant materials. However, an alloy that may also confer some advantage at preventing septic loosening could dramatically improve the outcomes for patients. Nevertheless, the predictive power of current models remains limited to common alloying additions. As such, this study considers the mechanical properties of a range of Ti-Nb-Au superelastic alloys to elucidate the composition range for which low modulus structures can be achieved. These modulus values are compared to other critical design parameters such as strain recovery and strength. It was found that Au additions are effective at suppressing the formation of the ω phase and allow alloys with lower moduli to be achieved. It was also shown that low β phase stability is critical for achieving the lowest modulus, and that this susceptibility to transform to a martensite may enable higher strengths to be achieved. However, this low β phase stability also limits the strain recovery that may be achieved meaning these two properties are not necessarily independently tuneable. These data provide important context for the design of new systems containing unusual alloying additions such as Au.

Prevention and treatment of peri-implant fibrosis by functionally inhibiting skeletal cells expressing the leptin receptor. Nat Biomed Eng 2024:10.1038/s41551-024-01238-y.

Abstract
The cellular and molecular mediators of peri-implant fibrosis-a most common reason for implant failure and for surgical revision after the replacement of a prosthetic joint-remain unclear. Here we show that peri-implant fibrotic tissue in mice and humans is largely composed of a specific population of skeletal cells expressing the leptin receptor (LEPR) and that these cells are necessary and sufficient to generate and maintain peri-implant fibrotic tissue. In a mouse model of tibial implantation and osseointegration that mimics partial knee arthroplasty, genetic ablation of LEPR+ cells prevented peri-implant fibrosis and the implantation of LEPR+ cells from peri-implant fibrotic tissue was sufficient to induce fibrosis in secondary hosts. Conditional deletion of the adhesion G-protein-coupled receptor F5 (ADGRF5) in LEPR+ cells attenuated peri-implant fibrosis while augmenting peri-implant bone formation, and ADGRF5 inhibition by the intra-articular or systemic administration of neutralizing anti-ADGRF5 in the mice prevented and reversed peri-implant fibrosis. Pharmaceutical agents that inhibit the ADGRF5 pathway in LEPR+ cells may be used to prevent and treat peri-implant fibrosis.

Heliyon 2024; 10:e32495. [PMID: 39021991 PMCID: PMC11252889 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e32495] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/30/2023] [Revised: 06/03/2024] [Accepted: 06/05/2024] [Indexed: 07/20/2024] Open
Abstract
It has been realized throughout the years that an ideal combination of high toughness, hardness and strength is required in many engineering applications that need load-bearing capabilities. Ceramics and related materials have significant constraints for structural and particular non-structural applications due to their low toughness and limited strength while having substantially superior hardness than typical metallic materials. For example, hydroxyapatite (HAp) has gained attention for applications in orthopaedic implants, dental materials, drug delivery, etc. Researchers have continued to strive to produce HAp materials with reliable properties within the acceptable Weibull modulus (m) for load bearing. The Weibull analysis (WA) is a statistical analysis adopted widely in reliability applications to detect failure periods. Researchers have confirmed it to be an effective technique to get results on the reliability of materials at a moderately low rate with assured reliability of the material or component. This review summarizes the WA and the steps in the Weibull method for its reliability analysis to predict the failure rate of ceramics like HAp and other related materials. Also, the applications of WA for these materials were reviewed. From the review, it was discovered that Weibull distribution is proven to confer to the feeblest-link concept. For brittle materials, it was revealed that the Weibull Modulus ranges from 2 to 40, and environment, production processes, and comparative factors are well-thought-out contributing factors for reliability. In addition, the confidence interval can be up to 95 %. The frequently used technique for reliability valuation is to syndicate the Weibull statistics. Also, a very narrow distribution is desirable to offer the expected likelihood. Furthermore, when paired with trials, Monte Carlo simulations prove to be a very helpful tool for forecasting the dependability of different estimate techniques and their optimization. Finally, if the equivalent m is anticipated to be high, it signifies that the material has a high degree of homogeneity of properties and high reliability. WA can find application in predicting the dependability and lifetime of materials, making it widely utilized in engineering and other disciplines. It is especially useful for analysing data in which the likelihood of failure per unit of time varies over time.

Planovalgus Foot Deformity in Patients Undergoing Total Hip Arthroplasty Is Associated With Increased Risk of Falls, Implant-Related Complications, and Revisions: A Case-Control Analysis. J Arthroplasty 2024:S0883-5403(24)00546-1. [PMID: 38823522 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2024.05.074] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2023] [Revised: 05/21/2024] [Accepted: 05/23/2024] [Indexed: 06/03/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Pes planus occurs due to the loss of the longitudinal arch of the foot, resulting in altered gait mechanics. This may lead to increased complications following total hip arthroplasty (THA). Thus, the aim of this study was to assess the effects that pes planus has on rates of falls, implant complications, fall-related injuries, and times to revision among THA patients. METHODS A retrospective review of a private insurance claims database was conducted from 2010 to 2021. Patients who had a diagnosis of congenital or acquired pes planus and cases of THA were identified. Patients undergoing THA with a diagnosis of pes planus were matched to control patients 1:5 based on age, sex, and comorbidity profiles. Logistic regression was utilized to assess for differences in complication rates. RESULTS A total of 3,622 pes planus patients were matched to 18,094 control patients. The pes planus group had significantly higher rates of falls than the control group (6.93 versus 2.97%, OR [odds ratio]: 2.43; CI [confidence interval]: 2.09 to 2.84; P < .001). Pes planus patients also had significantly greater odds of dislocation (OR: 1.89; CI: 1.58 to 2.27; P < .001), mechanical loosening (OR: 2.43; CI: 2.09 to 2.84; P = .019), and periprosthetic fracture (OR: 2.43; CI: 2.09 to 2.84; P < .001). The pes planus group had significantly greater rates of proximal humerus fractures (P = .008), but no difference was seen in distal radius fractures (P = .102). The time to revision was significantly shorter in the pes planus group (190 versus 554 days, P < .001). CONCLUSIONS Pes planus in patients undergoing THA is associated with increased risk of complications and faster time to revision. These findings may allow orthopaedic surgeons to identify those patients at risk and allow for more educated patient counseling and operative planning.

Abstract
BACKGROUND An increased risk of periprosthetic fracture and aseptic loosening is reported when the direct anterior approach (DAA) is used for total hip arthroplasty (THA), especially with cementless implants. We assessed the rate of revision comparing collared and collarless femoral stems when using the DAA for THA. METHODS We used data from the Australian Orthopaedic Association National Joint Replacement Registry for primary THA for osteoarthritis inserted with the DAA between January 2015 and December 2022. There were 48,567 THAs that used the DAA (26,690 collarless cementless, 10,161 collared cementless, and 11,716 cemented). Cumulative percent revision was calculated for all-cause revision, revision for periprosthetic femoral fractures, and aseptic femoral stem loosening. Cox proportional hazard ratios [HRs] were used to compare the revision of collared and collarless cementless stems. We also compared collared cementless stems and cemented stems. RESULTS A higher rate of all-cause revision within 3 months of surgery was observed with collarless compared to collared cementless implants (HR: 1.99 [95% confidence interval (CI), 1.56 to 2.54]; P < .001). Similarly, collarless cementless implants were associated with a greater rate of revision for fracture in the first 6 months (HR: 2.90 [95% CI, 1.89 to 4.45]; P < .001) and after 6 months (HR 10.04 [95% CI 1.38 to 73.21]; P = .02), as well as an increased rate of revision for aseptic loosening after 2 years (HR: 5.76 [95% CI, 1.81 to 18.28], P = .003). Collared cementless and cemented stems performed similarly. CONCLUSION Collared stems were associated with a reduced rate of all-cause revision for cementless THA performed via the DAA. The reduction in risk may be due to protection from periprosthetic femoral fracture and aseptic loosening.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Uncemented femoral stem insertion into the bone is achieved by applying successive impacts on an inserter tool called "ancillary". Impact analysis has shown to be a promising technique to monitor the implant insertion and to improve its primary stability. METHOD This study aims to provide a better understanding of the dynamic phenomena occurring between the hammer, the ancillary, the implant and the bone during femoral stem insertion, to validate the use of impact analyses for implant insertion monitoring. A dynamic 3-D finite element model of the femoral stem insertion via an impaction protocol is proposed. The influence of the trabecular bone Young's modulus (Et), the interference fit (IF), the friction coefficient at the bone-implant interface (μ) and the impact velocity (v0) on the implant insertion and on the impact force signal is evaluated. RESULTS For all configurations, a decrease of the time difference between the two first peaks of the impact force signal is observed throughout the femoral stem insertion, up to a threshold value of 0.23 ms. The number of impacts required to reach this value depends on Et, v0 and IF and varies between 3 and 8 for the set of parameters considered herein. The bone-implant contact ratio reached after ten impacts varies between 60% and 98%, increases as a function of v0 and decreases as a function of IF, μ and Et. CONCLUSION This study confirms the potential of an impact analyses-based method to monitor implant insertion and to retrieve bone-implant contact properties.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In osteoporotic patients, surgeons may utilize cemented femoral fixation to minimize risk of fracture. The purpose of this study was to compare 5-year implant survivability in patients who have osteoporosis who underwent elective total hip arthroplasty (THA) with cementless versus cemented fixation. METHODS A retrospective analysis of patients who have osteoporosis undergoing THA with either cemented or cementless femoral fixation was conducted using a national administrative claims database. Of the 18,431 identified THA patients who have osteoporosis, 15,867 (86.1%) underwent cementless fixation. The primary outcome was a comparison of the 5-year cumulative incidences of aseptic revision, mechanical loosening, and periprosthetic fracture (PPF). Kaplan-Meier and Multivariable Cox Proportional Hazard Ratio analyses were used, controlling for femoral fixation method, age, sex, a comorbidity scale, use of osteoporosis medication, and important comorbidity. RESULTS There was no difference in aseptic revision (Hazard's Ratio (HR): 1.13; 95% Confidence Interval (CI): 0.79 to 1.62; P value: .500) and PPF (HR: 0.96; 95% CI: 0.64 to 1.44; P value: .858) within 5 years of THA between fixation cohorts. However, patients who had cemented fixation were more likely to suffer mechanical loosening with 5 years post-THA (HR: 1.79; 95% CI: 1.17 to 2.71; P-value: .007). CONCLUSIONS We found a similar 5-year rate of PPF when comparing patients who underwent cementless versus cemented femoral fixation for elective THA regardless of preoperative diagnosis of osteoporosis. While existing registry data support the use of cemented fixation in elderly patients, a more thorough understanding of the interplay between age, osteoporosis, and implant design is needed to delineate in whom cemented fixation is most warranted for PPF prevention.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hip and knee implants can either be fixed without cement, press-fit, or with bone cement. Real-world data from arthroplasty registers, as well as studies provide a broad database for the discussion of cemented versus uncemented arthroplasty procedures. OBJECTIVE What does current evidence from international arthroplasty registries and meta-analyses recommend regarding cemented or cementless fixation of hip and knee implants? METHODS A recommendation is generated by means of direct data comparison from the arthroplasty registries of eight countries (USA, Germany, Australia, UK, Sweden, Norway, New Zealand, Netherlands), the comparison of 22 review studies and meta-analyses based on registry data, as well as an evaluation of recommendations of healthcare systems from different nations. For this purpose, reviews and meta-analyses were selected where the results were statistically significant, as were the annual reports of the arthroplasty registries that were current at the time of writing. RESULTS For knee arthroplasties, long survival time as well as lower risk of revision can be achieved with the support of cemented fixation with antibiotic-loaded bone cement. In patients aged 70 years and older, cemented fixation of hip stem implants significantly reduces risk of intraoperative or postoperative periprosthetic fracture (quadruple). This applies both to elective total hip arthroplasties and to hemiarthroplasty after femoral neck fractures. Antibiotic-loaded bone cement significantly (p = 0.041) reduces the risk of periprosthetic infection, especially in patients with femoral neck fractures. CONCLUSION Total knee replacement with antibiotic-loaded bone cement is well established internationally and is evidence-based. Registry data and meta-analyses recommend cemented fixation of the hip stem in older patients. In Germany, USA and Australia these evidence-based recommendations still must be transferred to daily practice.

Abstract
Wear particles generated from the surface of implanted prostheses can lead to peri-implant osteolysis and subsequent aseptic loosening. In the inflammatory environment, extensive formation and activation of osteoclasts are considered the underlying cause of peri-implant osteolysis. Current medications targeting osteoclasts for the treatment of particle-induced bone resorption are not ideal due to significant side effects. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop more effective drugs with fewer side effects. Norcantharidin (NCTD), a derivative of cantharidin extracted from blister beetles, is currently primarily used for the treatment of solid tumors in clinical settings. However, the potential role of NCTD in treating aseptic loosening of the prosthesis has not been reported. In this study, the in vitro results demonstrated that NCTD could effectively inhibit the formation of osteoclasts and bone resorption induced by the RANKL. Consistently, NCTD strongly inhibited RANKL-induced mRNA and protein levels of c-Fos and NFATc1, concomitant with reduced expression of osteoclast specific genes including TRAP, CTR and CTSK. The in vivo data showed that NCTD exerted significant protective actions against titanium particle-induced inflammation and subsequent osteolysis. The molecular mechanism investigation revealed that NCTD could suppress the activations of RANKL-induced MAPK (p38, ERK). Overall, these findings support the potential use of NCTD for the treatment of aseptic loosening following total joint arthroplasty.

J Arthroplasty 2024; 39:846-850.e2. [PMID: 37648098 DOI: 10.1016/j.arth.2023.08.071] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2023] [Revised: 08/19/2023] [Accepted: 08/22/2023] [Indexed: 09/01/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Most primary total hip arthroplasties (THAs) performed in the United States utilize cementless fixation with porous or hydroxyapatite (HA) coating. A previous meta-analysis comparing HA-coated versus non-HA-coated stems in primary THA published in 2013 found no significant difference between the 2. However, an updated analysis of the current literature is needed to assess the potential benefit of HA-coated stems in primary THA. METHODS Various libraries were searched through May 2022 according to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis (PRISMA) guidelines. Studies included were randomized controlled trials comparing HA-coated femoral stems to non-HA-coated stems in primary THA. Outcomes included Harris Hip Score (HHS), endosteal bone formation, radiolucent lines, linear wear rate, revision for aseptic loosening, thigh pain, and heterotopic ossification. RESULTS There were significantly fewer revisions for aseptic loosening (P = .004) and decreased postoperative thigh pain (P = .03) for patients who have with HA-coated stems. There was no significant difference in HHS (P = .20), endosteal bone formation (P = .96), radiolucent lines (P = .75), linear wear rate (P = .41), or heterotopic ossification (P = .71) between HA-coated and non-HA-coated stems. CONCLUSION We found that HA-coated femoral stems in primary THA led to significantly fewer stem revisions for aseptic loosening and less postoperative thigh pain compared to non-HA-coated stems. These findings suggest HA-coated femoral stems should be preferred over non-HA-coated femoral stems in primary THA.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Femoral stem subsidence is a known complication after uncemented total hip arthroplasty (THA). The purpose of this study was to determine the frequency of osteoporosis and to investigate the relationship between areal bone mineral density (aBMD) and subsidence in a cohort of patients younger than 70 years. METHODS One hundred consecutive patients (age 60 ± 6 years; 52 female, 48 male) undergoing uncemented THA using a collarless press fit femoral stem were retrospectively reviewed. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) was performed preoperatively at the proximal femur and lumbar spine, and if not feasible at these sites, at the distal radius. DXA results were compared to a cohort of 100 patients ≥ 70 years scheduled for cemented THA. Age, sex, and body mass index (BMI), canal flare index (CFI), and canal fill ratio (CFR) were assessed. Analysis of stem subsidence and migration was performed on standardized, calibrated radiographs obtained postoperatively and at follow-up. RESULTS The frequency of osteoporosis was considerably lower in the study cohort compared to patients ≥ 70 years (7% vs. 19%, p = 0.02). Illustrated by the high CFR (mean 96 ± 4%) in the mid-stem region, a sufficient press fit was achieved. After a mean follow-up of 7.4 months, the mean stem subsidence was 0.9 ± 0.9 mm. Only two patients had subsidence greater than 3 mm, one of whom was morbidly obese and the other diagnosed with severe osteoporosis. There were no correlations between any of the parameters (CFI, CFR, age, sex, BMI) and femoral stem subsidence. In addition, aBMD T-scores showed no correlations with subsidence. CONCLUSION aBMD by DXA does not appear to be associated with stem subsidence in patients younger than 70 years and with adequate press fit.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hip and knee implants can be either fixated without cement, press-fit, or with bone cement. Real-world data from arthroplasty registers, as well as studies, provide a broad database for the discussion of cemented versus uncemented arthroplasty procedures. OBJECTIVES What is the recommendation for cemented or cementless anchorage of hip and knee implants based on the current evidence from international arthroplasty registries and meta-analyses? METHODS A recommendation is generated by means of a direct comparison of data from the arthroplasty registries of eight different countries (USA, Germany, Australia, UK, Sweden, Norway, New Zealand, and The Netherlands), the comparison of 22 review studies and meta-analyses based on registry data, as well as the evaluation of the recommendation of healthcare systems of different nations. For this purpose, reviews and meta-analyses whose results were statistically significant were selected, as were the annual reports of the arthroplasty registries that were current at the time of writing. RESULTS For knee endoprostheses, a long survival time, as well as a lower risk of revision can be achieved with the help of cemented anchorage with antibiotic-laden bone cement. In patients aged 70 years and older, cemented anchorage of the hip stem implant significantly reduces the risk of intraoperative or postoperative periprosthetic fracture (times four), this applies both to elective total hip arthroplasties (TEPs) and to hemiarthroplasty after femoral neck fractures. Antibiotic-loaded bone cement significantly (p = 0.041) reduces the risk of periprosthetic infection, especially in patients with femoral neck fractures. CONCLUSIONS Total knee replacement with antibiotic-loaded bone cement is well established in Germany and evidence based. Registry data and meta-analyses recommend cemented fixation of the hip stem in older patients-in Germany the evidence-based recommendations must still be transferred to daily practice.

Abstract
As the aging population increases worldwide, the incidence of musculoskeletal diseases and the need for orthopedic implants also arise. One of the most desirable goals in orthopedic reconstructive therapies is de novo bone formation. Yet, reproducible, long-lasting, and cost-effective strategies for implants that strongly induce osteogenesis are still in need. Nanoengineered titanium substrates (and their alloys) are among the most used materials in orthopedic implants. Although having high biocompatibility, titanium alloys hold a low bioactivity profile. The osteogenic capacity and osseointegration of Ti-based implantable systems are limited, as they critically depend on the body-substrate interactions defined by blood proteins adsorbed into implant surfaces that ultimately lead to the recruitment, proliferation, and differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to comply bone formation and regeneration. In this work, a hybrid Ti6Al4V system combining micro- and nanoscale modifications induced by hydrothermal treatment followed by functionalization with a bioactive compound (fibronectin derived from human plasma) is proposed, aiming for bioactivity improvement. An evaluation of the biological activity and cellular responses in vitro with respect to bone regeneration indicated that the integration of morphological and chemical modifications into Ti6Al4V surfaces induces the osteogenic differentiation of MSCs to improve bone regeneration by an enhancement of mineral matrix formation that accelerates the osseointegration process. Overall, this hybrid system has numerous competitive advantages over more complex treatments, including reproducibility, low production cost, and potential for improved long-term maintenance of the implant.

Abstract
Early aseptic loosening is caused by deficient osteointegration of the femoral stem due to increased micromotions and represents a common mode of failure in uncemented total hip arthroplasty (THA). This study hypothesized that a higher femoral offset, a smaller stem size and obesity increase femoral micromotion, potentially resulting in early aseptic loosening. A finite element analysis was conducted based on computed tomography segmented model of four patients who received a THA with a triple-tapered straight stem (Size 1, 3, 6). The influence of femoral stem offset (short neck, standard, lateral), head length (S to XXL), femoral anteversion and obesity during daily activities of fast walking and stair climbing was analyzed. The micromotions for the femoral stem zones were compared to a threshold representing a value above which only partial osseointegration is expected. The minimum femoral offset configuration compared to the maximum offset configuration (short neck stem, S head vs. lateral stem, XXL head) leads to a relative mean micromotion increase of 24% for the upper stem zone. Increasing the body weight (body mass index 30-35 kg/m2 ) increases the micromotion by 20% for all stem zones. The obese population recorded threshold-exceeding micromotions for stem sizes 1 and 3 for all offset configurations during stair climbing. Higher femoral offset, a smaller stem size, and higher loading due to obesity lead to an increase in micromotion between the prosthesis and proximal femur and represent a risk configuration for impaired osseointegration of a triple-tapered straight stem, especially when these three factors are present simultaneously.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the relationship of serum levels of IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α with prosthesis loosening after hip arthroplasty, and to establish a predictive model for prosthesis loosening. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the data of 501 patients who underwent hip arthroplasty in Xi'an International Medical Center Hospital from January 2020 to August 2022. Based on radiological diagnosis, the patients were divided into a prosthesis loosening group and a non-loosening group. Clinical data including postoperative serum levels of inflammatory cytokines were collected. Univariant analysis, Lasso regression, decision tree, and random forest models were used to screen feature variables. Based on the screening results, a nomogram model for predicting the risk of prosthesis loosening was established and then validated using ROC curve, and calibration curve, and other methods. RESULTS There were 50 cases in the loosening group and 451 cases in the non-loosening group. Postoperative levels of IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α were found to be significantly higher in the loosening group (P<0.0001). Univariant analysis showed that osteoporosis and postoperative infection were risk factors for prosthesis loosening (P<0.001). The machine learning algorithm identified osteoporosis, postoperative infection, IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α as 5 relevant variables. The predictive model based on these 5 variables exhibited an area under the ROC curve of 0.763. The calibration curve and DCA curve verified the accuracy and practicality of the model. CONCLUSION Serum levels of IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α were significantly elevated in patients with postoperative prosthesis loosening. Osteoporosis, postoperative infection, and inflammatory cytokines are independent risk factors for prosthesis loosening. The predictive model we established through machine learning can effectively determine the risk of prosthesis loosening. Monitoring inflammatory cytokines and postoperative infections, combined with prevention of osteoporosis, can help reduce the risk of prosthesis loosening.

Abstract
The biomechanical response of mandibular bone determines primary stability and concomitant osseointegration of dental implants. This study explores the impact of nature of loading and bone conditions on biomechanical response of hybrid threaded single-piece zirconia dental implants. To develop such understanding, three implants (SQ_V, V_BUT, and V_V), with different combinations of threads, square (SQ), buttress (BUT), and triangular (V), have been investigated. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) was carried out to simulate implantation at the molar position of mandible of varying densities under axial (≤500 N) and oblique (118.2 N) loadings. Patient-specific bone conditions (for a wider population) were considered by scaling the density and the elastic modulus of mandible to represent, 'weak', 'healthy', and 'strong' bone conditions. FEA results revealed that SQ_V and V_BUT implants exhibited a better biomechanical response without significant variation (<0.5%) in von Mises stress, regardless of bone density and axial loadings. These implants are predicted to perform with clinically acceptable factor of safety under investigated implantation scenarios, whereas V_BUT implant showed a larger variation (∼±12%). FEA simulation with oblique loading further validated such results. The 'weak' bone conditions resulted in maximum peri-implant microstrain, whereas 'strong and healthy' bone exhibited values close to the permissible range of physiological remodeling. The maximum micromotion (∼12.3 ± 6.2 μm for 'weak' bone) at bone-implant interface suggested that implant loosening and impaired osseointegration will not occur in any of selected virtual implantation cases. Both SQ_V and V_BUT implants will be considered further in implant development, involving manufacturing and product prototype validation. Taken together, the critical analysis of FEA results indicates a significant impact of bone density and distinct combinations of external threads on the biomechanical responses, in both the implant and the surrounding bone.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to analyse the short- and medium-term complications of the Motec total wrist arthroplasty (TWA). Identifying exact modes of failure and their causes should allow surgeons to avoid or mitigate these risks in the future. Retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data from six hand surgeons at five international centres provided details of 171 Motec TWAs. The mean follow-up was 5.8 years (range 18 months to 12 years). There were 33 (19%) complications within our cohort, with a revision rate of 8.2% (14 revisions). There was no difference in complication rates between metal-on-metal and metal-on-polymer articulations. Failure of osseointegration was the most common complication. Problems with soft tissue balancing, implant impingement related osteolysis, bony impingement and metacarpal fracture were found to be other preventable causes of failure in this series. Elimination of these preventable complications will improve survival rates for this implant.Level of evidence: IV.

Abstract
Introduction: Stress shielding is a common complication following endoprosthetic reconstruction surgery. The resulting periprosthetic osteopenia often manifests as catastrophic fractures and can significantly limit future treatment options. It has been long known that bone plates with lower elastic moduli are key to reducing the risk of stress shielding in orthopedics. Inclusion of open space lattices in metal endoprostheses is believed to reduce the prosthesis modulus potentially improving stress shielding. However, no in vivo data is currently available to support this assumption in long bone reconstruction. This manuscript aims to address this hypothesis using a sheep model of extraarticular bone defect. Methods: Initially, CT was used to create a virtual resection plan of the distal femoral metaphyses and to custom design endoprostheses specific to each femur. The endoprostheses comprised additively manufactured Ti6Al4V-ELI modules that either had a solid core with a modulus of ∼120 GPa (solid implant group) or an open space lattice core with unit cells that had a modulus of 3-6 GPa (lattice implant group). Osteotomies were performed using computer-assisted navigation followed by implantations. The periprosthetic, interfacial and interstitial regions of interest were evaluated by a combination of micro-CT, back-scattered scanning electron microscopy (BSEM), as well as epifluorescence and brightfield microscopy. Results: In the periprosthetic region, mean pixel intensity (a proxy for tissue mineral density in BSEM) in the caudal cortex was found to be higher in the lattice implant group. This was complemented by BSEM derived porosity being lower in the lattice implant group in both caudal and cranial cortices. In the interfacial and interstitial regions, most pronounced differences were observed in the axial interfacial perimeter where the solid implant group had greater bone coverage. In contrast, the lattice group had a greater coverage in the cranial interfacial region. Conclusion: Our findings suggest that reducing the prosthesis modulus by inclusion of an open-space lattice in its design has a positive effect on bone material and morphological parameters particularly within the periprosthetic regions. Improved mechanics appears to also have a measurable effect on the interfacial osteogenic response and osteointegration.

The Impact of Al 2O 3 Particles from Grit-Blasted Ti6Al7Nb (Alloy) Implant Surfaces on Biocompatibility, Aseptic Loosening, and Infection. MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 16:6867. [PMID: 37959464 PMCID: PMC10648623 DOI: 10.3390/ma16216867] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2023] [Revised: 10/17/2023] [Accepted: 10/21/2023] [Indexed: 11/15/2023]
Abstract
For the improvement of surface roughness, titanium joint arthroplasty (TJA) components are grit-blasted with Al2O3 (corundum) particles during manufacturing. There is an acute concern, particularly with uncemented implants, about polymeric, metallic, and corundum debris generation and accumulation in TJA, and its association with osteolysis and implant loosening. The surface morphology, chemistry, phase analysis, and surface chemistry of retrieved and new Al2O3 grit-blasted titanium alloy were determined with scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and confocal laser fluorescence microscopy, respectively. Peri-prosthetic soft tissue was studied with histopathology. Blasted retrieved and new stems were exposed to human mesenchymal stromal stem cells (BMSCs) for 7 days to test biocompatibility and cytotoxicity. We found metallic particles in the peri-prosthetic soft tissue. Ti6Al7Nb with the residual Al2O3 particles exhibited a low cytotoxic effect while polished titanium and ceramic disks exhibited no cytotoxic effect. None of the tested materials caused cell death or even a zone of inhibition. Our results indicate a possible biological effect of the blasting debris; however, we found no significant toxicity with these materials. Further studies on the optimal size and properties of the blasting particles are indicated for minimizing their adverse biological effects.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The Corail femoral stem has excellent long-term survivorship in total hip arthroplasty (THA). However, there remains a paucity of information on the specific performance of the high offset collarless stem in relation to subsidence, loosening, offset, and failure rates. METHODS Retrospective data were collected on all consecutive high offset collarless Corail stems implanted at a single centre in the UK. Data included patient demographics, femoral Dorr classification, radiographic analysis for radiolucent lines, and stem subsidence. The postoperative femoral offset was measured against the native offset of the contralateral hip. Any early failures, re-operations, or requirements for revision surgery were recorded. RESULTS We identified 162 stems for inclusion in the study. Ninety-five patients were male. The mean age was 60.5 (40 to 78) years, and the mean BMI was 29.8 (21 to 50) kg/m2. The mean length of follow-up was 84.5 (12-130) months. Subsidence was recorded on 113 (69.7%) stems. The mean amount of total stem subsidence in the whole cohort was 1.62mm (0 to 3.9mm). There was no correlation between the amount of subsidence and the preoperative Dorr classification, age, sex, BMI, or indication for surgery. Radiolucent lines were exclusively seen in stems paired with a large-diameter 36-mm femoral head. The high offset stem accurately reproduced native femoral offset; the mean difference in offset was -1.21mm (-24mm to +21mm). There were no early failures, re-operations, or revision surgeries. CONCLUSION The use of a high offset stem can accurately reproduce native femoral offset when chosen for THA. The high offset collarless Corail stem does not result in early failures in THA, and we support its use.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Literature regarding total knee arthroplasty (TKA) outcomes in sickle cell disease (SCD) is limited. Moreover, 10-year survivorship of SCD implants is unknown. This study aimed to observe 10-year cumulative incidence and indications for revision TKA in patients who did and did not have SCD. METHODS Patients who underwent primary TKA were identified using a large national database. The SCD patients were matched by age, sex, and a comorbidity index to a control cohort in a 1:4 ratio. The 10-year cumulative incidence rates were determined using Kaplan-Meier survival analyses. Multivariable analyses were conducted using Cox proportional hazard modeling. Chi-squared analyses were conducted to compare indications for revision between cohorts. In total, 1,010 SCD patients were identified, 100,000 patients included in the unmatched control, and 4,020 patients included in the matched control. RESULTS Compared to the unmatched control cohort, SCD patients exhibited higher 10-year all-cause revision (HR: 1.86; P < .001) with higher proportions of revisions for periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) (P < .001), aseptic loosening (P < .001), and hematoma (P < .001). Compared to the matched control, SCD patients had higher 10-year all-cause revision (Hazard Ratio (HR): 1.39; P = .034) with a higher proportion of revisions for PJI (P = .044), aseptic loosening (P = .003), and hematoma (P = .019). CONCLUSION Independent of other comorbidities, SCD patients are more likely to undergo revisions for PJI, aseptic loosening, and hematoma compared to patients who do not have SCD. Due to the high-risk of these complications, perioperative and postoperative surgical optimization should be enforced in SCD patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Elevated levels of oxidative stress as a consequence of estrogen deficiency serve as a key driver of the onset of osteoporosis (OP). In addition to increasing the risk of bone fractures, OP can reduce the bone volume proximal to titanium nails implanted to treat these osteoporotic fractures, thereby contributing to titanium nail loosening. Sodium butyrate (NaB) is a short-chain fatty acid produced by members of the gut microbiota that exhibits robust antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. METHODS OP fracture model rats parameters including bone mineral density (BMD), new bone formation, and the number of bonelets around the implanted nail were analyzed via micro-CT scans, H&E staining, and Masson's staining. The protective effects of NaB on such osseointegration and the underlying mechanisms were further studied in vitro using MC3T3-E1 cells treated with carbonyl cyanide m-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP) to induce oxidative stress. Techniques including Western immunoblotting, electron microscopy, flow cytometry, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining, and osteoblast mineralization assays were employed to probe behaviors such as reactive oxygen species production, mineralization activity, ALP activity, protein expression, and the ability of cells to attach to and survive on titanium plates. RESULTS NaB treatment was found to enhance ALP activity, mineralization capacity, and Coll-I, BMP2, and OCN expression levels in CCCP-treated MC3T3-E1 cells, while also suppressing PKC and NF-κB expression and enhancing Nrf2 and HO-1 expression in these cells. NaB further suppressed intracellular ROS production and malondialdehyde levels within the cytosol while enhancing superoxide dismutase activity and lowering the apoptotic death rate. In line with these results, in vivo work revealed an increase in BMD in NaB-treated rats that was associated with enhanced bone formation surrounding titanium nails. CONCLUSION These findings indicate that NaB may represent a valuable compound that can be postoperatively administered to aid in treating OP fractures through the enhancement of titanium nail osseointegration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The difference between Young's moduli of the femur and the stem causes stress shielding (SS). TiNbSn (TNS) stem has a low Young's modulus and strength with gradient functional properties during the change in elastic modulus with heat treatment. The aim of this study was to investigate the inhibitory effect of TNS stems on SS and their clinical outcomes compared to conventional stems. METHODS This study was a clinical trial. Primary THA was performed using a TNS stem from April 2016 to September 2017 for patients in the TNS group. Unilateral THA was performed using a Ti6Al4V alloy stem from January 2007 to February 2011 for patients in the control group. The TNS and Ti6Al4V stems were matched in shape. Radiographs were obtained at the 1- and 3-year follow-ups. Two surgeons independently checked the SS grade and appearance of cortical hypertrophy (CH). The Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) scores before and 1 year after surgery were assessed as clinical scores. RESULTS None of the patients in the TNS group had grade 3 or 4 SS. In contrast, in the control group, 24% and 40% of patients had grade 3 and 4 SS at the 1- and 3-year follow-ups, respectively. The SS grade was lower in the TNS group than in the control group at the 1- and 3-year follow-ups (p < 0.001). The frequencies of CH in both groups were no significant difference at the 1- and 3-year follow-ups. The JOA scores of the TNS group significantly improved at 1 year after surgery and were comparable to control group. CONCLUSION The TNS stem reduced SS at 1 and 3 years after THA compared to the proximal-engaging cementless stem, although the shapes of the stems matched. The TNS stem could reduce SS, stem loosening, and periprosthetic fractures. TRIAL REGISTRATION Current Controlled Trials. ISRCTN21241251. https://www.isrctn.com/search?q=21241251 .

Abstract
Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) has been widely used in the medical field as an implant material, especially in bone tissue engineering and orthopedic surgery, in recent years. This material exhibits superior stability at high temperatures and is biosecured without harmful reactions. However, the chemical and biological inertness of PEEK still limits its applications. Recently, many approaches have been applied to improve its performance, including the modulation of physical morphology, chemical composition and antimicrobial agents, which advanced the osteointegration as well as antibacterial properties of PEEK materials. Based on the evolution of PEEK biomedical devices, many studies on the use of PEEK implants in spine surgery, joint surgery and trauma repair have been performed in the past few years, in most of which PEEK implants show better outcomes than traditional metal implants. This paper summarizes recent studies on the modification and application of biomedical PEEK materials, which provides further research directions for PEEK implants.

Abstract
The aim of this umbrella review is to evaluate what are the most common medications and systemic diseases that can affect bone-implant integration, the success rate and survival rate of dental implants, peri-implant tissue health, and implant loss. Systematic reviews, with meta-analysis or not, about how systemic diseases and medications influence dental implant osseointegration, survival rate, success rate, and peri-implant diseases, published only in the English language, are electronically searched across the most important scientific databases. The present umbrella review includes eight systematic reviews, and osteoporosis and diabetes are the most investigated pathologies. Systemic diseases, such as neurologic disorders, HIV, hypothyroidism, cardiovascular diseases, and drugs, such as beta blockers, anti-hypertensives, or diuretics do not show a decreased rate of implant osseointegration. It seems that drugs, such as proton-pump inhibitors (PPIs) or serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), negatively affect implant osseointegration. Few studies compare the effects of drugs and systemic diseases on the parameters considered in this overview. It is important to underline how the results of this review need to be validated with subsequent and more reviews.

Abstract
Metal injection molding (MIM) is one of the most widely used manufacturing processes worldwide as it is a cost-effective way of producing a variety of dental and orthopedic implants, surgical instruments, and other important biomedical products. Titanium (Ti) and Ti alloys are popular modern metallic materials that have revamped the biomedical sector as they have superior biocompatibility, excellent corrosion resistance, and high static and fatigue strength. This paper systematically reviews the MIM process parameters that extant studies have used to produce Ti and Ti alloy components between 2013 and 2022 for the medical industry. Moreover, the effect of sintering temperature on the mechanical properties of the MIM-processed sintered components has been reviewed and discussed. It is concluded that by appropriately selecting and implementing the processing parameters at different stages of the MIM process, defect-free Ti and Ti alloy-based biomedical components can be produced. Therefore, this present study could greatly benefit future studies that examine using MIM to develop products for biomedical applications.

Abstract
In the last decades total hip arthroplasty (THA) has become a standard procedure with many benefits but also a few still unsolved complications, which can lead to surgical revision in 19-23% of cases. Thus, aseptic loosening and metal hypersensitivity remain challenges. The phenomenon of wear debris causes chronic inflammation, which produces osteolysis and aseptic loosening. Wear debris promotes osteoclast production and inhibits osteoblasts by secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Micro-abrasions can be induced by abrasive, adhesive and fatigue wear and cause a liberation of metal ions, which lead to another immune response elicited mostly by macrophages. Another reaction in the neocapsule can be a type IV hypersensitivity reaction to various alloys, containing metals such as nickel, cobalt and chromium. Patch testing and the lymphocyte transformation test (LTT) are not the best diagnostic possibilities to exclude a postoperative hypersensitivity reaction, because of the different alignment of the epicutaneous cells compared to the periprosthetic deep tissue. This hypersensitivity reaction is mostly induced by cytokines, which are secreted by macrophages rather than lymphocytes. In cell cultures and in animal studies, multipotent mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) have been shown to play a role in improving initial implant integration, to limit periprosthetic osteolysis and also to reconstitute peri-implant bone stock during implant revision. Thus, MSC might be used in the future to prolong the durability of THA. A better understanding of the interactions between primary chronic inflammation, corrosion, osteolysis and hypersensitivity is mandatory to develop new therapeutic strategies, aiming at the reduction of the incidence of implant failures. In this article the underlying immunological mechanisms to aseptic loosening are presented.

Abstract
Most metallic commercial bone anchors, such as screws and suture anchors achieve their fixation to bone through shear of the bone located between the threads. They have several deficiencies, potentially leading to failure, which are particularly evident in low-density bone. These include stress-shielding resulting from mechanical properties mismatch; lack of mechanically induced remodeling and osteointegration; and when the pullout force on the anchor, during functional activities, exceeds their pullout strength, catastrophic failure occurs leaving behind large bone defects that may be hard to repair. To overcome these deficiencies, we introduced in this study a porous swelling co-polymeric material and studied its swelling and compressive mechanical characteristics as bone anchor under different configurations. Porosity was achieved by adding a non-dissolvable agent (NaCl) during the process of polymerization, which was later dissolved in water, leaving behind a porous structure with adequate porosity for osteointegration. Three different groups of cylindrical samples of the swelling co-polymer were investigated. Solid, fully porous, and partially porous with a solid core and a porous outer layer. The results of the swelling and simple compression study show that the partially porous swelling co-polymer maintains excellent mechanical properties matching those of cancellous bone, quick swelling response, and an adequate porous outer layer for mechanically induced osteointegration. These suggest that this material may present an effective alternative to conventional bone anchors particularly in low-density bone.

Abstract
The immuno-compatibility of implant materials is a key issue for both initial and long-term implant integration. Ceramic implants have several advantages that make them highly promising for long-term medical solutions. These beneficial characteristics include such things as the material availability, possibility to manufacture various shapes and surface structures, osteo-inductivity and osteo-conductivity, low level of corrosion and general biocompatibility. The immuno-compatibility of an implant essentially depends on the interaction with local resident immune cells and, first of all, macrophages. However, in the case of ceramics, these interactions are insufficiently understood and require intensive experimental examinations. Our review summarizes the state of the art in variants of ceramic implants: mechanical properties, different chemical modifications of the basic material, surface structures and modifications, implant shapes and porosity. We collected the available information about the interaction of ceramics with the immune system and highlighted the studies that reported ceramic-specific local or systemic effects on the immune system. We disclosed the gaps in knowledge and outlined the perspectives for the identification to ceramic-specific interactions with the immune system using advanced quantitative technologies. We discussed the approaches for ceramic implant modification and pointed out the need for data integration using mathematic modelling of the multiple ceramic implant characteristics and their contribution for long-term implant bio- and immuno-compatibility.

Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2023; 11:1127929. [PMID: 36865033 PMCID: PMC9972097 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2023.1127929] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2022] [Accepted: 02/03/2023] [Indexed: 02/12/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction: Ti6Al4V titanium alloy is widely used in producing orthopedic and maxillofacial implants, but drawbacks include high elastic modulus, poor osseointegration performance, and toxic elements. A new medical titanium alloy material with better comprehensive performance is urgently needed in the clinic. Methods: Ti10Mo6Zr4Sn3Nb titanium alloy (referred to as Ti-B12) is a unique medical ß titanium alloy material developed by us. The mechanical properties of Ti-B12 depict that it has advantages, such as high strength, low elastic modulus, and fatigue resistance. In our study, the biocompatibility and osseointegration properties of Ti-B12 titanium alloy are further studied to provide theoretical guidance for its clinical transformation. Results and Discussion: The titanium alloy Ti-B12 displays no significant effect on MC3T3-E1 cell morphology, proliferation, or apoptosis in vitro. Neither Ti-B12 titanium alloy nor Ti6Al4V titanium alloy depicts a significant difference (p > 0.05); Ti-B12 material extract injected into the abdominal cavity of mice does not cause acute systemic toxicity. The skin irritation test and intradermal irritation test reveal that Ti-B12 does not cause skin allergic reactions in rabbits. Compared to Ti6Al4V, Ti-B12 titanium alloy material has more advantages in promoting osteoblast adhesion and ALP secretion (p < 0.05). Although there is no significant difference in OCN and Runx2 gene expression between the three groups on the 7th and 14th days of differentiation induction (p > 0.05), the expression of Ti-B12 group is higher than that of Ti6Al4V group and blank control group. Furthermore, the rabbit in vivo test present that 3 months after the material is implanted in the lateral epicondyle of the rabbit femur, the Ti-B12 material fuses with the surrounding bone without connective tissue wrapping. This study confirms that the new β-titanium alloy Ti-B12 not only has low toxicity and does not cause rejection reaction but also has better osseointegration performance than the traditional titanium alloy Ti6Al4V. Therefore, Ti-B12 material is expected to be further promoted in clinical practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Three-dimensional printing of implants allows the ability to produce implants and interfaces which theoretically better mimic "normal" bone behaviour, leading to a possible reduction in stress shielding thus maintaining bone mineral density (BMD). This issue was not investigated in vivo using bone scan and different bearings; therefore, we did a prospective study aiming to answer: 1) is there a loss of BMD around the 3D printed trabecular titanium cup, when compared to the native hip?; 2) does liner type influence the BMD changes around the acetabulum when a 3D printed trabecular titanium cup is used? HYPOTHESIS BMD changes around the acetabulum are not influenced by the liner type, and the cup will be associated with a reduction in BMD when compared to the native hip. MATERIAL AND METHODS This is a prospective observational study of patients receiving a primary total hip arthroplasty. A 3D printed trabecular titanium uncemented acetabular component was used in all cases. All patients received a ceramic femoral head, with either a ceramic or polyethylene acetabular liner. BMD measurements using DXA were performed at 6 weeks, 6, 12 and 24 months after surgery to evaluate remodeling changes. The 3 acetabular regions of interest (ROI) of DeLee and Charnley were used for serial comparisons of peri-acetabular BMD. The study was powered as a non-inferiority study with the principle variables compared using a two-step repeated analysis of variance. RESULTS A total of 48 consecutive patients were included in the study, with all patients completing their 2 year follow-up. There were no failures, revisions or complications within this cohort. We found no statistically significant difference in the BMD change scores between the operated and the native hip in any of the 3 ROI zones. We found no differences in BMD scores when comparing ceramic to polyethylene acetabular liners, head sizes and BMI. DISCUSSION This study shows a similar pattern of BMD behaviour around a 3D printed cup when compared to the contralateral native hip. We were unable to show a clinical or radiological difference between the bearing material, head size, or BMI when used with this type of acetabular component. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III; prospective comparative study.

Abstract
The repair of bone defects caused by osteosarcoma resection remains a clinical challenge because of the tumor recurrence and bacterial infection. Combining tumor and bacterial therapy with bone regeneration properties in bone implants is a promising strategy for the treatment of osteosarcoma. Here, a layer of MgO/FeOx nanosheet is constructed on the Ti implant to prevent tumor recurrence and bacterial infection, while simultaneously accelerating bone formation. This MgO/FeOx double metal oxide demonstrates good peroxidase activity to catalyze H2 O2 , which is rich in tumor microenvironment, to form reactive oxygen species (ROS), and shows good photothermal conversion capacity to produce photothermal effect, thus synergistically killing tumor cells and eliminating tumor tissue. In addition, it generates a local alkaline surface microenvironment to inhibit the energy metabolism of bacteria to enhance the photothermal antibacterial effect. Furthermore, benefiting from the generation of a Mg ion-containing alkaline microenvironment, this MgO/FeOx film can promote the osteogenic differentiation of osteoblast and angiogenesis of vascular endothelial cells in vitro as well as accelerated bone formation in vivo. This study proposes a multifunctional platform for integrating tumor and bacterial therapy and bone regeneration, which has good application prospects for the treatment of osteosarcoma.

Abstract
Arthroplasty is an orthopedic surgical procedure that replaces a dysfunctional joint by an orthopedic prosthesis, thereby restoring joint function. Upon the use of the joint prosthesis, a wearing process begins, which releases components such as titanium dioxide (TiO2) that trigger an immune response in the periprosthetic tissue, leading to arthritis, arthroplasty failure, and the need for revision. Flavonoids belong to a class of natural polyphenolic compounds that possess antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. Hesperidin methyl chalcone's (HMC) analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant effects have been investigated in some models, but its activity against the arthritis caused by prosthesis-wearing molecules, such as TiO2, has not been investigated. Mice were treated with HMC (100 mg/kg, intraperitoneally (i.p.)) 24 h after intra-articular injection of 3 mg/joint of TiO2, which was used to induce chronic arthritis. HMC inhibited mechanical hyperalgesia, thermal hyperalgesia, joint edema, leukocyte recruitment, and oxidative stress in the knee joint (alterations in gp91phox, GSH, superoxide anion, and lipid peroxidation) and in recruited leukocytes (total reactive oxygen species and GSH); reduced patellar proteoglycan degradation; and decreased pro-inflammatory cytokine production. HMC also reduced the activation of nociceptor-sensory TRPV1+ and TRPA1+ neurons. These effects occurred without renal, hepatic, or gastric damage. Thus, HMC reduces arthritis triggered by TiO2, a component released upon wearing of prosthesis.

Abstract
Hip fractures in elderly patients are an arising problem due to aging of population and still represent a controversial challenge for orthopedic surgeon who should help achieve the best functional recovery in the shortest time. Cementation in hip replacement plays an important role, but it should be carefully planned considering the possible risks. According to the literature, there are still no certainties regarding the superiority of an uncemented implant compared to a cemented one. The purpose of this work is to conduct an overview of the scientific literature that can clarify the advantages and disadvantages of cemented and non-cemented implants from a biological and biomechanical point of view.

Abstract
Supraphysiological loading induced by unstable orthopedic implants initiates osteoclast formation, which results in bone degradation. We aimed to investigate which mechanosensitive cells in the peri-implant environment produce osteoclast-stimulating factors and how the production of these factors is stimulated by supraphysiological loading. The release of osteoclast-stimulating factors by different types of isolated bone marrow-derived hematopoietic and mesenchymal stem cells from six osteoarthritic patients was analyzed after one hour of supraphysiological loading (3.0 ± 0.2 Pa, 1 Hz) by adding their conditioned medium to osteoclast precursors. Monocytes produced factors that enhanced osteoclastogenesis by 1.6 ± 0.07-fold and mesenchymal stem cells by 1.4 ± 0.07-fold. Medium from osteoprogenitors and pre-osteoblasts enhanced osteoclastogenesis by 1.3 ± 0.09-fold and 1.4 ± 0.03-fold, respectively, where medium from four patients elicited a response and two did not. Next generation sequencing analysis of osteoprogenitors revealed that genes encoding for inflammation-related pathways and cytoskeletal rearrangements were regulated differently between responders and non-responders. Our data suggest that released osteoclast-stimulating soluble factors by progenitor cells in the bone marrow after supraphysiological loading may be related to cytoskeletal arrangement in an inflammatory environment. This connection could be relevant to better understand the aseptic loosening process of orthopedic implants.

Hydroxyapatite (HA) layers are appropriate biomaterials for use in the modification of the surface of implants produced inter alia from a Ti6Al4V alloy. The issue that must be solved is to provide implants with appropriate biointegration properties, enabling the permanent link between them and bone tissues, which is not so easy with the HA layer. Our proposition is the use of the intermediate layer ((IL) = TiO2, and titanate layers) to successfully link the HA coating to a metal substrate (Ti6Al4V). The morphology, structure, and chemical composition of Ti6Al4V/IL/HA systems were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDS). We evaluated the apatite-forming ability on the surface of the layer in simulated body fluid. We investigated the effects of the obtained systems on the viability and growth of human MG-63 osteoblast-like cells, mouse L929 fibroblasts, and adipose-derived human mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) in vitro, as well as on their osteogenic properties. Based on the obtained results, we can conclude that both investigated systems reflect the physiological environment of bone tissue and create a biocompatible surface supporting cell growth. However, the nanoporous TiO2 intermediate layer with osteogenesis-supportive activity seems most promising for the practical application of Ti6Al4V/TiO2/HA as a system of bone tissue regeneration.

Morselized bone autograft for high placement of acetabular component closure with hip arthroplasty revision after 3-years screws and cup loosening: A case report. Int J Surg Case Rep 2022; 101:107789. [PMID: 36459851 PMCID: PMC9712815 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijscr.2022.107789] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2022] [Revised: 11/20/2022] [Accepted: 11/20/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE Aseptic loosening in high placement of the acetabular component seriously affects the hip and femoral head loads. Surgery revision is highly recommended with defect closure in previous place. CASE PRESENTATION A-40-year-old man came with chief complaint of right groin pain and noticeable leg length discrepancy gait. The first hip arthroplasty through pseudo-acetabulum cup was done three years ago after neglected femoral head necrosis due to eight years of unknown hip dislocation in vehicle accident. On hip x-ray there is a screws and cup loosening, without any sign of infection from blood or from soft tissue which undergoes pathological and mold examination. The patient than assessed with periprosthetic aseptic loosening of hip dextra and simple total hip arthroplasty revision using true acetabulum location was done. The pseudo-acetabulum area closed with morselized bone autograft. One weeks after surgery, the wound healed properly. Hence, the patient sent to the rehabilitation. CLINICAL DISCUSSION Hip arthroplasty revision of aseptic loosening in high placement acetabular component should perform by returning to anatomical acetabular position. Cancellous morselized bone autograft (MBA) was used to closed the defect formed by previous procedure. CONCLUSION Revision of hip arthroplasty combined with morselized bone autograft can be considered for high placement acetabular component defect closure to provide better stability and strength in weight loads transfer.

Selecting a Press-fit Stem for Total Hip Arthroplasty: The Rationale and Evolution of the Modern Femoral Prosthesis. J Am Acad Orthop Surg 2022; 30:e1279-e1290.

Abstract
Noncemented press-fit femoral stems predominate in total hip arthroplasty for all age groups with generally excellent long-term survivorship. The 2021 American Joint Replacement Registry reports that 96% of all elective primary total hip arthroplasties used noncemented femoral implant fixation. 1 Today, there are many styles of press-fit stems, each with supposed benefits, based on a range of design philosophies. Design aspects to consider when selecting a stem are numerous, including stem geometry, stem length, collared or collarless, material properties, and surface structure. Although most stem designs demonstrate excellent results, the differences in stem designs are intimately linked to additional factors such as ease of use/implantation, percentage of surface osseointegration, overall bone removal versus bone stock preservation, subsequent femoral stress shielding, and consideration of complexity of later revision. A surgeon with a broad understanding and appreciation of femoral stem designs should be prepared to select between the multitude of options to best serve individual patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Complications after primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) are the most common reason for revision. Due to the high prevalence of revision surgery, we investigated the frequency of postprimary THA complications and related risk factor revision surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS This is a cohort study that was performed in 2011-2019 on all patients who underwent primary THA surgery re-admitted to the Kashani and Saadi Hospital affiliated to Isfahan University of Medical Science, Iran, due to some complications after THA. Demographic and basic data were collected from patient's medical documents. Harris hip score (HHS) was calculated for all patients 6 months after the last surgery. The obtained data were analyzed using SPSS software version 21. Appropriate statistical tests were conducted to compare the results between the study groups. RESULTS Among 1260 patients who underwent primary THA, 1006 of them entered the study after applying the exclusion criteria. Thirty nine patients were under revision, 53.8% had prosthesis infection, 56.4% had instability, 6% had aseptic loosening, and 30.8% had periprosthetic fracture. Odds ratio for the above complications were 45.5, 45, 6.4, and 15.5, respectively. HHS postoperatively was also significantly (P < 0.001) higher in patients without revision. No correlation between gender or surgeon experience and revision was detected; however wound discharge (P < 0.001), body mass index (BMI) (P = 0.003), and Infection during hospitalization (P < 0.001) affect revision rate significantly. All four postsurgery complications, i.e., instability, postoperative prothesis infections, periprosthetic fractures, and aseptic loosening, significantly increased the risk of revision (P < 0.001, for all). CONCLUSION Instability, prosthetic infections, periprosthetic fractures, and aseptic loosening were the most common causes for increasing revision rates after THA, respectively. Higher BMI, persistent wound discharge, and nosocomial infections during the first hospitalization also increased the rate of revision after primary THA.

Arch Orthop Trauma Surg 2022; 143:3621-3627.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Bone mineral density is important in detecting implant loosening after total hip arthroplasty. The Polarstem can improve postoperative bone mineral density changes, but no information exists on the influence of postoperative stem alignment. Therefore, we investigated the relationship between bone mineral density change and stem alignment following total hip arthroplasty using a cementless Polarstem. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective study included 42 patients (50 hips) who underwent total hip arthroplasty using a cementless Polarstem. Bone mineral density around the stem was measured according to the established Gruen zone classification using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Measurements were performed 2 months postoperatively (baseline) and 6, 12, 18, and 24 months postoperatively. Bone mineral density changes at each follow-up were calculated as (bone mineral density at follow-up/at 2 weeks) × 100 (%). The stem varus, anterior tilt, and anteversion angles were measured using computed tomography. The correlation coefficient between bone mineral density changes and stem alignment were investigated. RESULTS The 24-month postoperative bone mineral density increased in zones 4 (106.0%) and 5 (107.3%) and decreased in zones 1 (89.6%) and 7 (90.6%). The mean stem varus angle, anterior tilt, and anteversion error were - 0.3° ± 1.8°, 1.9° ± 2.2°, and 6.8° ± 5.4°. Negative correlations were observed between the stem varus angle and 24-month postoperative bone mineral density change in zone 1 (r = - 0.34, p = 0.02), and the stem anteversion error and 24-month postoperative bone mineral density change in zone 1 (r = - 0.48, p < 0.01) and zone 7 (r = - 0.31, p = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS The cementless Polarstem may have a positive effect on postoperative bone mineral density in the distal femur. However, varus malalignment and anteversion error of the stem could have a negative influence on the bone mineral density changes in the proximal femur.

Abstract
Bone cements and dental resins are methacrylate-based materials that have been in use for many years, but their failure rates are quite high with essentially all dental resins failing within 10 years and 25% of all prosthetic implants will undergo aseptic loosening. There are significant healthcare costs and impacts on quality of life of patients. Self-healing bone cements and resins could improve the lifespan of these systems, reduce costs, and improve patient outcomes, but they have been limited by efficacy and toxicity of the components. To address these issues, we developed a self-healing system based on a dual nanocapsule system. Two nanocapsules were synthesized, one containing an initiator and one encapsulating a monomer, both in polyurethane shells. The monomer used was triethylene glycol dimethacrylate. The initiator capsules synthesized contained benzoyl peroxide and butylated hydroxytoluene. Resins containing the nanocapsules were tested in tension until failure, and the fractured surfaces were placed together. 33% of the samples showed self-healing behaviors to the point where they could be reloaded and tested in tension. Furthermore, the capsules and their components showed good biocompatibility with Caco-2 cells, a human epithelial cell line suggesting that they would be well tolerated in vivo.

Abstract
Aseptic loosening is a common cause of revision total hip arthroplasty (rTHA), and with the rising number of primary THAs, revisions for aseptic loosening represent a significant burden for arthroplasty surgeons. Aseptic loosening remains a diagnostic and management challenge. Loosening can occur as a result of inadequate initial fixation, mechanical loss of fixation over time, or a biological loss of fixation over time. However, in most cases, etiology is multifactorial, involving all 3 factors. The diagnosis of aseptic loosening involves a careful history, focused clinical exam, and thorough evaluation of imaging using several diagnostic modalities. The careful evaluation of serial radiographs remains the cornerstone of diagnosis with additional input from advanced imaging modalities such as FDG-PET, DEXA, MRI, and several others, each offering unique advantages and disadvantages. In certain patients, history and physical exam might be the only initial obvious signs of loosening, and thus, unexplained continuous pain augmented by imaging findings serves as an indication for revision surgery.

Abstract
Commercially pure titanium (Ti) is widely used in bio-implants due to its high corrosion resistance. However, Ti exhibits marginally low mechanical and tribological properties, which limit its applications in some orthopedic implants. In this work, the Ti samples were subjected to ultrasonic surface mechanical attrition treatment (SMAT) for various durations to improve their surface properties such as hardness, strength and surface energy. SMAT-induced grain refinement was analyzed using optical, scanning electron and atomic force microscopy techniques. A Vickers hardness test was performed to determine the through-thickness hardness. Mechanical testing was carried out to measure the yield strength, ultimate tensile strength and ductility of the specimens. Corrosion tests were performed on a Gamry Potentiostat. The surface energy of SMAT-modified samples was calculated using the Owens–Wendt method. It was observed that SMAT reduced the average grain size from 50 μm to as low as 100 nm. The grain refinement and the corresponding grain boundary density led to a significant improvement in mechanical properties and biocompatibility in terms of increased hardness, yield and tensile strengths, surface energy, corrosion rate and hydrophilicity.

Abstract
Bone sarcomas are rare primary malignant mesenchymal bone tumors. The three main entities are osteosarcoma, chondrosarcoma, and Ewing sarcoma. While prognosis has improved for affected patients over the past decades, bone sarcomas are still critical conditions that require an interdisciplinary diagnostic and therapeutic approach. While radiotherapy plays a role especially in Ewing sarcoma and chemotherapy in Ewing sarcoma and osteosarcoma, surgery remains the main pillar of treatment in all three entities. After complete tumor resection, the created bone defects need to be reconstructed. Possible strategies are implantation of allografts or autografts including vascularized bone grafts (e.g., of the fibula). Around the knee joint, rotationplasty can be performed or, as an alternative, the implantation of (expandable) megaprostheses can be performed. Challenges still associated with the implantation of foreign materials are aseptic loosening and infection. Future improvements may come with advances in 3D printing of individualized resection blades/implants, thus also securing safe tumor resection margins while at the same time shortening the required surgical time. Faster osseointegration and lower infection rates may possibly be achieved through more elaborate implant surface structures.

Abstract
The use of a porous hydroxyapatite (HA) coating has definitively increased the durability and biocompatibility of joint replacement prostheses (JRP) since its introduction. This article will contextualise the properties of porous HA and relate these characteristics to its clinical function. Novel strategies to encourage osseointegration will also be explored, alongside their clinical relevance. All major literature databases were scrutinised for literature relevant to the scope of our review. The role of Hydroxyapatite was evaluated, alongside further strategies to augment bone ingrowth. HA coatings remain the most optimal coating for widespread clinical use. Advantages are conferred due to the method of application, the tribology and the biocompatibility of the material. Further strategies are available to augment bone ingrowth, pertaining to biological modifications and implantation of external factors. An evaluation of the literature has described the relative long term performance of the HA coated JRPs both in isolation and when compared with cemented prosthesis. Metanalyses have shown HA coated JRPs to perform as well as cemented prosthesis in terms of survivability over both short and long term follow ups. Concerning strategies to augment osseointegration, consideration should be given to form and function of the coating surface, as this provides the basis for cell adherence, proliferation, and differentiation.

Abstract
Osteocytes function as the master orchestrator of bone remodeling activity in the telophase of osseointegration. However, most contemporary studies focus on the manipulation of osteoblast and/or osteoclast functionality via implant surface engineering, which neglects the pivotal role of osteocytes in de novo bone formation. It is confirmative that osteocyte processes extend directly to the implant surface, but whether the surface physicochemical properties can affect the functionality of osteocytes and determine the fate of the osseointegration in the final remodeling stage remains to be determined. Titania nanotube arrays (NTAs) with distinct diameters were fabricated to investigate the relationship between the nanoscale topography and the functionality of osteocytes. In vitro results pinpointed that NTA with a diameter of 15 nm (NTA-15) significantly promote osteogenesis of osteocytes via the enhancement of spreading, proliferation, and mineralization. The osteocyte transcriptome of each group further revealed that the TGF-β signaling pathway plays a pivotal role in osteocyte-mediated osteogenesis. The in vivo study definitely mirrored the aforementioned results, that NTA-15 significantly promotes bone formation around the implant. Consequently, nanoscaled topography-induced osteocyte functionality is important in late osseointegration. This suggests that surface designs targeting osteocytes may, therefore, be a potential approach to solving the aseptic loosening of the implant, and thus strengthen osseointegration.

Shen X, Tian H, Li Y, Zuo J, Gao Z, Xiao J. Acetabular Revision Arthroplasty Based on 3-Dimensional Reconstruction Technology Using Jumbo Cups. Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2022; 10:799443. [PMID: 35449597 PMCID: PMC9016227 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2022.799443] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/23/2021] [Accepted: 03/21/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: This study was aimed at evaluating the changes in cup coverage (CC) and hip center of rotation (HCOR) in acetabular defects of various severities treated with acetabular revision using jumbo cups. Methods: A total of 86 hips were included. The American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons (AAOS) classification of these patients was as follows: 16 patients, AAOS I; 16 patients, AAOS II; and 16 patients, AAOS III. A three-dimensional (3D) implant simulation technique was used to visualize the placement of jumbo cups during revision arthroplasty. The acetabular anteversion, inclination, CC, and the HCOR were measured. Results: The inclination and anteversion of simulated acetabular cups in AAOS I–III groups were consistent with the normal acetabular anatomy. Compared with the controls, in AAOS I–III groups, the HCOR was significantly increased and CC was significantly decreased. The HCOR elevation was significantly higher in AAOS III patients than in AAOS I (p = 0.001) and AAOS II patients (p < 0.001). The use of the jumbo cup technology for acetabular revision would decrease the CC in AAOS I–III patients to 86.47, 84.78, and 74.51%, respectively. Conclusion: Our study demonstrated that in patients with acetabular defects, acetabular revision arthroplasty using jumbo cups will lead to decreased CC and HCOR upshift. Upon classifying these patients according to the AAOS classification, CC decreased with the severity of acetabular defects, and the elevation of the HCOR in AAOS III patients exceeded 10 mm and was significantly higher than in other patients.

Rheumatol Ther 2022; 9:565-580. [PMID: 34997912 PMCID: PMC8964887 DOI: 10.1007/s40744-021-00414-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/09/2021] [Accepted: 12/09/2021] [Indexed: 01/26/2023] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Advances in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) management have made disease remission achievable. We evaluated trends in total hip replacement (THR) and postoperative outcomes in patients with RA in Western Australia (WA) over more than three decades. METHODS This was a retrospective analysis of routinely collected prospective data from a state-wide registry containing longitudinally linked administrative health data based on International Classification of Diseases (ICD) diagnostic and procedural codes. We included patients with two or more diagnostic codes for RA (between 1980 and 2015) and studied THR incidence rates (THR IR) and complication rates (revision, peri-prosthetic fracture, infection, venous thrombosis, and mechanical loosening). Survival rates were estimated by Kaplan-Meier method and predictors analyzed by Cox regression. RESULTS We followed 9201 RA patients over 111,625 person-years, during which 1560 patients (16.9%) underwent THR. From 1985 to 2015, THR IR (per 1000 RA patient-years) decreased from 20.8 (95% CI 20.1-21.5) to 7.3 (95% CI 7.2-7.5), and 5-year THR-free survival increased from 84.3 to 95.3% (1980-2015). Ten-year prosthetic survival was 91.2%. Complication rates in the first 5 years post-THR decreased significantly from 13.1 to 3.7% (p < 0.001). Mechanical complications such as loosening and periprosthetic fracture rates decreased significantly (> 35%, P < 0.05), while infection and revision did not change over the observation period (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Over the last 30 years in RA patients, THR IR and mechanical complication rates decreased significantly, but the medical complication of infection has not changed significantly.

Abstract
With the development of three-dimensional (3D) printed technology, 3D printed alloy implants, especially titanium alloy, play a critical role in biomedical fields such as orthopedics and dentistry. However, untreated titanium alloy implants always possess a bioinert surface that prevents the interface osseointegration, which is necessary to perform surface modification to enhance its biological functions. In this article, we discuss the principles and processes of chemical, physical, and biological surface modification technologies on 3D printed titanium alloy implants in detail. Furthermore, the challenges on antibacterial, osteogenesis, and mechanical properties of 3D-printed titanium alloy implants by surface modification are summarized. Future research studies, including the combination of multiple modification technologies or the coordination of the structure and composition of the composite coating are also present. This review provides leading-edge functionalization strategies of the 3D printed titanium alloy implants.
