Abstract
PURPOSE The functional interaction between the hip and spine in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA) is clinically significant, as it impacts post-operative outcomes. Therefore, this study aimed to identify factors associated with the progression of sagittal spinal deformity and assess the association with patient-reported outcomes. METHODS This retrospective case-control study included 200 patients who underwent primary THA and completed a mean follow-up duration of 42.2 months (range, 24.0-78.0). We employed a multivariate logistic regression to identify variables predictive of a post-THA sagittal vertical axis (SVA) ≥ 50 mm, which was indicative of a spinal sagittal imbalance. Propensity score-matched cohorts for age, sex, body mass index, follow-up duration, hip flexion contracture, developmental dysplasia, pelvic incidence (PI), and SVA were created, and the outcomes were compared between the two groups. RESULTS PI (odds ratio 1.39; 95% confidence interval 1.04-1.86, p = 0.033) was associated with an SVA ≥ 50 mm. After successfully matching patients with (n = 50) and without (n = 50) an SVA ≥ 50 mm, the minimum clinically important difference showed significant differences between the 50 matched pairs (p = 0.016 for EuroQol-5D, p = 0.003 for Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score Joint Replacement, and p < 0.001 for low back pain). CONCLUSION PI is associated with the development of a positive sagittal spinal malalignment post-THA. This finding can assist surgeons in managing patient expectations and in optimising outcomes. Feasible strategies are warranted to minimise the risk of spinal deformity progression post-THA.

Long-term course of developmental dysplasia of the hip: follow-up of the non-operated hips of patients undergoing unilateral rotational acetabular osteotomy for twenty-four years. Arch Orthop Trauma Surg 2024; 144:997-1004. [PMID: 38070013 DOI: 10.1007/s00402-023-05140-1] [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: 08/06/2023] [Accepted: 11/11/2023] [Indexed: 02/28/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE To follow-up the non-operated hips of patients who underwent unilateral rotational acetabular osteotomy (RAO) for bilateral developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) for a minimum of 20 years to clarify (1) the timing of onset of hip osteoarthritis (OA) in DDH, and (2) factors associated with the development of OA. METHODS This study included 92 non-operated hips of patients who underwent unilateral RAO for bilateral DDH. We examined the timing of OA onset and total hip arthroplasty (THA) and the joint survival rate in the studied hips. Furthermore, the patients were divided into those with OA onset (progression group) and those without OA onset and compared in terms of lateral center-edge angle (LCEA), sharp angle, acetabular head index (AHI), acetabular roof obliquity (ARO), joint congruity, and the presence or absence of OA progression on the RAO side. RESULTS The progression group experienced OA onset 12 years after RAO and underwent THA 6 years after OA onset. The 20-year joint survival rate was 73% with the endpoint of OA onset and 81% with the endpoint of THA. The progression group had significantly smaller LCEA and AHI and larger ARO. The risk of developing OA was 8.2 times greater in patients with LCEA ≤ 7° than in those with LCEA > 7°. CONCLUSION The patients with OA progression group experienced OA onset at an average age of 55 years. A small LCEA (≤ 7°) was identified as a risk factor for the development of OA.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA), a late-stage complication of developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH), is a key factor leading to further degeneration of joint function. Studies have shown that Sestrin2 (SESN2) is a positive regulator in protecting articular cartilage from degradation. However, the regulatory effects of SESN2 on DDH-OA and its upstream regulators remain obscure. Here, we first identified that the expression of SESN2 significantly decreased in the cartilage of DDH-OA samples, with an expression trend negatively correlated with OA severity. Using RNA sequencing, we identified that the upregulation of miR-34a-5p may be an important factor for the decrease in SESN2 expression. Further exploring the regulation mechanism of miR-34a-5p/SESN2 is of great significance for understanding the mechanism of DDH occurrence and development. Mechanistically, we showed that miR-34a-5p could significantly inhibit the expression of SESN2, thereby promoting the activity of the mTOR signaling pathway. We also found that miR-34a-5p significantly inhibited SESN2-induced autophagy, thereby suppressing the proliferation and migration of chondrocytes. We further validated that knocking down miR-34a-5p in vivo resulted in a significant increase in SESN2 expression and autophagy activity in DDH-OA cartilage. Our study suggests that miR-34a-5p is a negative regulator of DDH-OA, and may provide a new target for the prevention of DDH-OA.

Abstract
Background Hip osteoarthritis (HOA) is a growing burden and one of the leading causes of hip pain. The relationship between the HOA and the alignment of the spinopelvic region has been intensively studied, however the issue remains controversial. Spinopelvic imbalance, HOA, and dysplasia were investigated in relation to sagittal spinopelvic parameters in this study. Methods We collected computerized tomography (CT) topograms of the pelvis or abdomen from 380 patients. In antero-posterior (AP) topograms, Tonnis grading, center-edge angle (CEA) and Sharp's acetabular angle (AA) measurements were performed on each patient. Lateral topograms were used to evaluate the following spinopelvic parameters for each patient: pelvic incidence (PI), pelvic tilt (PT), sacral slope (SS), sacral table angle (STA), lumbar lordosis (LL), proximal lumbar lordosis (PLL), distal lumbar lordosis (DLL), and PI-LL difference. Initially, the cohort was divided into two subgroups based on whether or not they had HOA. Then, they were divided into two subgroups based on whether or not they had dysplasia. Ultimately, it was divided in half based on the PI-LL imbalance. Statistical analyses were conducted to determine the likely correlations between the spinopelvic parameters of these subgroups. In addition, the correlations between spinopelvic parameters were investigated. Results There were 380 patients evaluated. We found no association between HOA or dysplasia and spinopelvic parameters. In addition, there was no association between PI-LL imbalance and HOA or dysplasia. Conclusion There was no difference in constant PI and STA angle, besides other variable parameters, between groups having HOA and dysplasia or not. PI-LL imbalance has no effect on HOA and dysplasia.

Abstract
Hip, spine, and pelvis function as a unified kinetic chain. Any spinal pathology, results in compensatory changes in the other components to accommodate for the reduced spinopelvic motion. The complex relationship between spinopelvic mobility and component positioning in total hip arthroplasty presents a challenge in achieving functional implant positioning. Patients with spinal pathology, especially those with stiff spines and little change in sacral slope, are at high instability risk. In this challenging subgroup, robotic-arm assistance enables the execution of a patient specific plan, avoiding impingement and maximizing range of motion; especially utilizing virtual range of motion to dynamically assess impingement.

Abstract
Since Offierski and MacNab reported a close association between the hip and spine as hip-spine syndrome in 1983, many studies on spinal alignment in hip disorders have been conducted. Notably, the pelvic incidence angle (PI) is the most important parameter and is determined by the anatomical variations in the sacroiliac joint and hip. Studies on the association of the PI with hip disorders can help in understanding the pathophysiology of hip-spine syndrome. A PI increase has been observed during the evolution of bipedal locomotion in humans and in the acquisition of gait during child development. Although the PI is a fixed parameter that is stable and unaffected by posture from adulthood onwards, it has become clear that it increases in the standing position in older people. While it may be associated with a greater risk of developing or progressing to spinal disorders, the association between the PI and hip disorders remains controversial because of the multifactorial nature of hip osteoarthritis (HOA) and the wide range of PIs in HOA (18-96°), making the interpretation of results difficult. However, several hip disorders (i.e., femoroacetabular impingement and rapid destructive coxarthrosis) have been shown to be associated with the PI. Further investigation on this topic is, therefore, warranted.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) classification systems are based on the size, volume, and location of necrotic lesions. Often-but not always-ONFH results in femoral head collapse. Because acetabular coverage is associated with mechanical stress on the femoral head, it might also be associated with femoral head collapse in patients with ONFH. However, the association between acetabular coverage and femoral head collapse in these patients has not been established. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES (1) Is femoral head collapse associated with acetabular coverage or pelvic incidence (PI) in patients with ONFH? (2) Are established predictors of femoral head collapse in ONFH classification systems associated with acetabular coverage? METHODS Between 2008 and 2018, we evaluated 343 hips in 218 patients with ONFH. We considered all patients with ONFH except for those with a traumatic etiology, a history of surgical treatment before collapse, or those with collapse at initial presentation as potentially eligible for this study. Of those, 101 hips with ONFH (50% [50] were in males with a mean age of 44 ± 15 years) met our inclusion criteria. These patients were subsequently divided into two groups: those with femoral head collapse within 12 months (collapse group, 35 hips) and those without femoral head collapse (noncollapse group, 66 hips). No differences in patient demographics were observed between the two groups. CT images were used to measure the PI and acetabular coverage in three planes: the lateral center-edge angle (LCEA) in the coronal plane, the anterior and posterior center-edge angle in the sagittal plane, and the anterior and posterior acetabular sector angle in the axial plane; in addition, the difference between these parameters was investigated between the groups. The thresholds for femoral head collapse in the parameters that showed differences were investigated. Necrotic location and size were evaluated using the Japanese Investigation Committee (JIC) classification and the Steinberg grade classification, respectively. We examined the relationship between these parameters and classifications. RESULTS The mean LCEA was slightly greater in the noncollapse group than in the collapse group (32° ± 6° versus 28° ± 7°; mean difference 4° [95% CI 1.15° to 6.46°]; p = 0.005); the clinical importance of this small difference is uncertain. There were no differences in PI between the two groups. After accounting for sex, age, BMI, and etiology as confounding factors, as well as acetabular coverage parameters and PI, we found a lower LCEA to be independently associated with increased odds of collapse, although the effect size is small and of questionable importance (OR 1.18 [95% CI 1.06 to 1.33]; p = 0.001). The threshold of LCEA for femoral head collapse was 28° (sensitivity = 0.79, specificity = 0.60, area under the curve = 0.73). The percentage of patients with an LCEA less than 28° was larger in JIC Type C1 (OR 6.52 [95% CI 1.64 to 43.83]; p = 0.006) and C2 (OR 9.84 [95% CI 2.34 to 68.38]; p = 0.001) than in patients with both Type A and Type B. The acetabular coverage data for the excluded patients did not differ from those of the patients included in the analysis. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that acetabular coverage appears to have little, if any, association with the likelihood of collapse in patients with ONFH. We found a small association between a lower LCEA and a higher odds of collapse, but the effect size may not be clinically important. Factors other than acetabular coverage need to be considered, and if our findings are verified by other investigators, osteotomy is unlikely to have a protective role. As the patients in our study were fairly homogeneous in terms of ethnicity and BMI, these factors need to be further investigated to determine whether they are associated with femoral head collapse in ONFH. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, prognostic study.

Abstract
Pelvic incidence (PI) is often quantified in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty. Errors in radiographic PI measurements can affect clinical outcomes. The purposes of this study were (1) to evaluate the error in radiographic PI measurement in patients with hip osteoarthritis (OA) and (2) to analyze the factors related to the error. Radiographs and computer tomography (CT) images of 100 patients (24 men and 76 women; mean age 63.7 years) with unilateral OA were reviewed. The error in radiographic PI measurement was defined as the difference between the radiographic measurement of the PI (rPI) and the accurate value of PI measured using CT images (cPI). Factors related to the error in the rPI were analyzed, including the coronal and axial rotation of the pelvis on lateral radiographs. The degree of coronal and axial rotation was expressed as the angle of rotation around the anteroposterior and craniocaudal axes. The mean rPI was significantly larger than the cPI (57.8° and 54.1°, p < 0.01). The error in the rPI was 3.6° on average and 15.8° at maximum. The mean coronal and axial rotation of the pelvis was 9.6° and 4.4°, respectively. The error in the rPI positively correlated with coronal pelvic rotation and rPI, and negatively correlated with axial pelvic rotation (p < 0.01, r = 0.35, 0.43, and -0.45, respectively). The rPI was 3.6° larger on average than the cPI in patients with hip OA. Coronal and axial rotation of the pelvis and a large PI were related to the error in the rPI.
