Abstract
AIMS Patients may present with concurrent symptomatic osteoarthritis (OA) of the hip and degenerative disorders of the lumbar spine, with surgical treatment being indicated for both. Whether arthroplasty of the hip or spinal surgery should be performed first remains uncertain. MATERIALS AND METHODS Clinical scenarios were devised for a survey asking the preferred order of surgery and the rationale for this decision for five fictional patients with both OA of the hip and degenerative lumbar disorders. These were symptomatic OA of the hip and: 1) lumbar spinal stenosis with neurological claudication; 2) lumbar degenerative spondylolisthesis with leg pain; 3) lumbar disc herniation with leg weakness; 4) lumbar scoliosis with back pain; and 5) thoracolumbar disc herniation with myelopathy. This survey was sent to 110 members of The Hip Society and 101 members of the Scoliosis Research Society. The choices of the surgeons were compared among scenarios and between surgical specialties using the chi-squared test. The free-text comments were analyzed using text-mining. RESULTS Responses were received from 51 hip surgeons (46%) and 37 spine surgeons (37%). The percentages of hip surgeons recommending 'hip first' differed significantly among scenarios: 59% for scenario 1; 73% for scenario 2; 47% for scenario 3; 47% for scenario 4; and 10% for scenario 5 (p < 0.001). The percentages of spine surgeons recommending 'hip first' were 49% for scenario 1; 70% for scenario 2; 19% for scenario 3; 78% for scenario 4; and 0% for scenario 5. There were significant differences between the groups for scenarios 3 (more hip surgeons recommended 'hip first'; p = 0.012) and 4 (more hip surgeons recommended 'spine first'; p = 0.006). CONCLUSION In patients with coexistent OA of the hip and degenerative disorders of the spine, the question of 'hip or spinal surgery first' elicits relatively consistent answers in some clinical scenarios, but remains controversial in others, even for experienced surgeons. The nature of neurological symptoms can influence surgeons' decision-making. Cite this article: Bone Joint J 2019;101-B(6 Supple B):37-44.

Abstract
Objectives Intra-articular injections of local anaesthetics (LA), glucocorticoids (GC), or hyaluronic acid (HA) are used to treat osteoarthritis (OA). Contrast agents (CA) are needed to prove successful intra-articular injection or aspiration, or to visualize articular structures dynamically during fluoroscopy. Tranexamic acid (TA) is used to control haemostasis and prevent excessive intra-articular bleeding. Despite their common usage, little is known about the cytotoxicity of common drugs injected into joints. Thus, the aim of our study was to investigate the effects of LA, GC, HA, CA, and TA on the viability of primary human chondrocytes and tenocytes in vitro. Methods Human chondrocytes and tenocytes were cultured in a medium with three different drug dilutions (1:2; 1:10; 1:100). The following drugs were used to investigate cytotoxicity: lidocaine hydrochloride 1%; bupivacaine 0.5%; triamcinolone acetonide; dexamethasone 21-palmitate; TA; iodine contrast media; HA; and distilled water. Normal saline served as a control. After an incubation period of 24 hours, cell numbers and morphology were assessed. Results Using LA or GC, especially triamcinolone acetonide, a dilution of 1:100 resulted in only a moderate reduction of viability, while a dilution of 1:10 showed significantly fewer cell counts. TA and CA reduced viability significantly at a dilution of 1:2. Higher dilutions did not affect viability. Notably, HA showed no effects of cytotoxicity in all drug dilutions. Conclusion The toxicity of common intra-articular injectable drugs, assessed by cell viability, is mainly dependent on the dilution of the drug being tested. LA are particularly toxic, whereas HA did not affect cell viability. Cite this article: P. Busse, C. Vater, M. Stiehler, J. Nowotny, P. Kasten, H. Bretschneider, S. B. Goodman, M. Gelinsky, S.

Abstract
AIMS Many case reports and small studies have suggested that cobalt ions are a potential cause of cardiac complications, specifically cardiomyopathy, after metal-on-metal (MoM) total hip arthroplasty (THA). The impact of metal ions on the incidence of cardiac disease after MoM THA has not been evaluated in large studies. The aim of this study was to compare the rate of onset of new cardiac symptoms in patients who have undergone MoM THA with those who have undergone metal-on-polyethylene (MoP) THA. PATIENTS AND METHODS Data were extracted from the Standard Analytics Files database for patients who underwent MoM THA between 2005 and 2012. Bearing surface was selected using International Classification of Diseases ninth revision codes. Patients with a minimum five-year follow-up were selected. An age and gender-matched cohort of patients who underwent MoP THA served as a comparison group. New diagnoses of cardiac disease were collected during the follow-up period. Comorbidities and demographics were identified and routine descriptive statistics were used. RESULTS We identified 29 483 patients who underwent MoM THA and 24 175 matched patients who underwent MoP THA. Both groups had a mean Charlson comorbidity index score of 4. There were no statistically significant differences in 30 of 31 pre-existing comorbidities. Patients undergoing MoM THA had a slightly lower incidence of cardiac failure compared with those undergoing MoP THA at three years (6.60% versus 7.06%, odds ratio (OR) 0.93, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.87 to 0.99) and four years (8.73% versus 9.49%, OR 0.91, 95% CI 0.86 to 0.97) postoperatively, with no difference in the incidence of new cardiac failure in between the groups at five years. There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of arrhythmia, myocardial infarction and cardiomyopathy at any time between the two groups. CONCLUSION MoM THA is not associated with cardiac complications. Initial reports may have represented individual instances of cardiac disease in patients with a failing MoM articulation rather than an emerging epidemiological trend.

Abstract
Non-traumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head is a potentially devastating condition, the prevalence of which is increasing. Many joint-preserving forms of treatment, both medical and surgical, have been developed in an attempt to slow or reverse its progression, as it usually affects young patients. However, it is important to evaluate the best evidence that is available for the many forms of treatment considering the variation in the demographics of the patients, the methodology and the outcomes in the studies that have been published, so that it can be used effectively. The purpose of this review, therefore, was to provide an up-to-date, evidence-based guide to the management, both non-operative and operative, of non-traumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head.

Abstract
AIMS The stability of cementless acetabular components is an important factor for surgical planning in the treatment of patients with pelvic osteolysis after total hip arthroplasty (THA). However, the methods for determining the stability of the acetabular component from pre-operative radiographs remain controversial. Our aim was to develop a scoring system to help in the assessment of the stability of the acetabular component under these circumstances. PATIENTS AND METHODS The new scoring system is based on the mechanism of failure of these components and the location of the osteolytic lesion, according to the DeLee and Charnley classification. Each zone is evaluated and scored separately. The sum of the individual scores from the three zones is reported as a total score with a maximum of 10 points. The study involved 96 revision procedures which were undertaken for wear or osteolysis in 91 patients between July 2002 and December 2012. Pre-operative anteroposterior pelvic radiographs and Judet views were reviewed. The stability of the acetabular component was confirmed intra-operatively. RESULTS Intra-operatively, it was found that 64 components were well-fixed and 32 were loose. Mean total scores in the well-fixed and loose components were 2.9 (0 to 7) and 7.2 (1 to 10), respectively (p < 0.001). In hips with a low score (0 to 2), the component was only loose in one of 33 hips (3%). The incidence of loosening increased with increasing scores: in those with scores of 3 and 4, two of 19 components (10.5%) were loose; in hips with scores of 5 and 6, eight of 19 components (44.5%) were loose; in hips with scores of 7 or 8, 13 of 17 components (70.6%) were loose; and for hips with scores of 9 and 10, nine of nine components (100%) were loose. Receiver-operating-characteristic curve analysis demonstrated very good accuracy (area under the curve = 0.90, p < 0.001). The optimal cutoff point was a score of ≥ 5 with a sensitivity of 0.79, and a specificity of 0.87. CONCLUSION There was a strong correlation between the scoring system and the probability of loosening of a cementless acetabular component. This scoring system provides a clinically useful tool for pre-operative planning, and the evaluation of the outcome of revision surgery for patients with loosening of a cementless acetabular component in the presence of osteolysis.

Abstract
Aims Modular or custom-made femoral components have been preferred for total hip arthroplasty (THA) in patients with a history of Perthes’ disease because of the distortion in the anatomy of the proximal femur. However, it has not been established whether a monobloc cementless stem will fit the distorted proximal femur or whether the results of the procedure are satisfactory in this group of patients. Patients and Methods We reviewed 68 consecutive patients who had undergone THA for childhood Perthes’ disease between June 2003 and December 2008. There were 35 men and 33 women with a mean age of 48 years (16 to 73) at the time of index arthroplasty. Their mean body mass index was 24.4 (18.3 to 32.9). Of the 68 hips, 32 were classified as Stulberg class III and 36 as class IV. The mean pre-operative shortening of the affected leg was 17.2 mm (5 to 34). The minimum follow-up was five years (mean 8.5 years; 5.2 to 10). Results An intra-operative calcar fracture occurred in eight hips (11.8%) and was successfully treated by cerclage wiring. The mean stem version was 14.6° (-2.3 to 30; standard deviation (sd) 7.3). The mean acetabular component abduction was 40.2° (23.7 to 56.0; sd 6.5) and the mean anteversion 28.3° (6.4 to 43.0; sd 7.6), respectively. The mean follow-up was 8.5 years (5.2 to 10). No dislocations occurred and no hips were revised during the course of the study. At final follow-up, the mean Harris Hip Score was 91 points (59 to 100) and the mean University of California, Los Angeles activity score was 3.2 (2 to 8). Conclusion Monobloc cementless stems reliably restore the anatomy in Perthes’ disease at THA without the need for custom-made or modular implants. Cite this article: Bone Joint J 2017;99-B:440–444.

Abstract
Inflammation is a defensive mechanism for pathogen clearance and maintaining tissue homeostasis. In the skeletal system, inflammation is closely associated with many bone disorders including fractures, nonunions, periprosthetic osteolysis (bone loss around orthopedic implants), and osteoporosis. Acute inflammation is a critical step for proper bone-healing and bone-remodeling processes. On the other hand, chronic inflammation with excessive proinflammatory cytokines disrupts the balance of skeletal homeostasis involving osteoblastic (bone formation) and osteoclastic (bone resorption) activities. NF-κB is a transcriptional factor that regulates the inflammatory response and bone-remodeling processes in both bone-forming and bone-resorption cells. In vitro and in vivo evidences suggest that NF-κB is an important potential therapeutic target for inflammation-associated bone disorders by modulating inflammation and bone-remodeling process simultaneously. The challenges of NF-κB-targeting therapy in bone disorders include: (1) the complexity of canonical and noncanonical NF-κB pathways; (2) the fundamental roles of NF-κB-mediated signaling for bone regeneration at earlier phases of tissue damage and acute inflammation; and (3) the potential toxic effects on nontargeted cells such as lymphocytes. Recent developments of novel inhibitors with differential approaches to modulate NF-κB activity, and the controlled release (local) or bone-targeting drug delivery (systemic) strategies, have largely increased the translational application of NF-κB therapy in bone disorders. Taken together, temporal modulation of NF-κB pathways with the combination of recent advanced bone-targeting drug delivery techniques is a highly translational strategy to reestablish homeostasis in the skeletal system.

Abstract
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are widely prescribed medications for relief of pain and inflammation. Recent animal studies using models of fracture healing and bone ingrowth suggest that NSAIDs (both non-selective NSAIDs and selective COX-2 inhibitors) adversely affect these bone-related processes. The dose and time-relationships of these medications and their resulting effects on bone have not yet been fully elucidated. Furthermore, whether COX-2 inhibitors and non-selective NSAIDs lead to clinically relevant adverse effects on bone healing in humans is unknown.

Abstract
A 59 year old man who had undergone left total knee arthroplasty in 2008 presented with a 5 month history of left knee pain and persistent swelling. Workup for infection was negative and the patient was suspected to be suffering from particle disease and chronic synovitis. Imaging revealed an internally rotated tibial component. Intraoperative findings revealed extensive polyethylene wear with resultant metalon- metal articulation, soft tissue metallosis and a pseudotumor like mass at the posterolateral aspect of the popliteal fossa. This was extensively debrided and revision knee arthroplasty was performed. Suboptimal component alignment can lead to localized high loading, wear and metallosis, which in this case resulted in the formation of a pseudotumor.

Abstract
Total joint replacement (TJR) has revolutionized the treatment of end-stage arthritic disorders. This success is due, in large part, to a clear understanding of the important interaction between the artificial implant and the biology of the host. All surgical procedures in which implants are placed in the body evoke an initial inflammatory reaction, which generally subsides over several weeks. Thereafter, a series of homeostatic events occur leading to progressive integration of the implant within bone and the surrounding musculoskeletal tissues. The eventual outcome of the operation is dependent on the characteristics of the implant, the precision of the surgical technique and operative environment, and the biological milieu of the host. If these factors and events are not optimal, adverse events can occur such as the development of chronic inflammation, progressive bone loss due to increased production of degradation products from the implant (periprosthetic osteolysis), implant loosening or infection. These complications can lead to chronic pain and poor function of the joint reconstruction, and may necessitate revision surgery or removal of the prosthesis entirely. Recent advances in engineering, materials science, and the immunological aspects associated with orthopaedic implants have fostered intense research with the hope that joint replacements will last a lifetime, and facilitate pain-free, normal function.

Abstract
Wear particles and by-products from joint replacements and other orthopaedic implants may result in a local chronic inflammatory and foreign body reaction. This may lead to persistent synovitis resulting in joint pain and swelling, periprosthetic osteolysis, implant loosening and pathologic fracture. Strategies to modulate the adverse effects of wear debris may improve the function and longevity of joint replacements and other orthopaedic implants, potentially delaying or avoiding complex revision surgical procedures. Three novel biological strategies to mitigate the chronic inflammatory reaction to orthopaedic wear particles are reported. These include (i) interference with systemic macrophage trafficking to the local implant site, (ii) modulation of macrophages from an M1 (pro-inflammatory) to an M2 (anti-inflammatory, pro-tissue healing) phenotype in the periprosthetic tissues, and (iii) local inhibition of the transcription factor nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) by delivery of an NF-κB decoy oligodeoxynucleotide, thereby interfering with the production of pro-inflammatory mediators. These three approaches have been shown to be viable strategies for mitigating the undesirable effects of wear particles in preclinical studies. Targeted local delivery of specific biologics may potentially extend the lifetime of orthopaedic implants.

Abstract
Aseptic loosening and other wear-related complications are some of the most frequent late reasons for revision of total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Periprosthetic osteolysis (PPOL) pre-dates aseptic loosening in many cases, indicating the clinical significance of this pathogenic mechanism. A variety of implant-, surgery- and host-related factors have been delineated to explain the development of PPOL. These factors influence the development of PPOL because of changes in mechanical stresses within the vicinity of the prosthetic device, excessive wear of the polyethylene liner, and joint fluid pressure and flow acting on the peri-implant bone. The process of aseptic loosening is initially governed by factors such as implant/limb alignment, device fixation quality and muscle coordination/strength. Later, large numbers of wear particles detached from TKA trigger and perpetuate particle disease, as highlighted by progressive growth of inflammatory/granulomatous tissue around the joint cavity. An increased accumulation of osteoclasts at the bone-implant interface, impairment of osteoblast function, mechanical stresses and increased production of joint fluid contribute to bone resorption and subsequent loosening of the implant. In addition, hypersensitivity and adverse reactions to metal debris may contribute to aseptic TKA failure, but should be determined more precisely. Patient activity level appears to be the most important factor when the long-term development of PPOL is considered. Surgical technique, implant design and material factors are the most important preventative factors, because they influence both the generation of wear debris and excessive mechanical stresses. New generations of bearing surfaces and designs for TKA should carefully address these important issues in extensive preclinical studies. Currently, there is little evidence that PPOL can be prevented by pharmacological intervention.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Changes in T1ρ and T2 magnetic resonance relaxation times have been associated with articular cartilage degeneration, but similar relationships for meniscal tissue have not been extensively investigated. This work examined relationships between T1ρ and T2 measurements and biochemical and mechanical properties across regions of degenerate human menisci. DESIGN Average T1ρ and T2 relaxation times were determined for nine regions each of seven medial and 13 lateral menisci from 14 total knee replacement patients. Sulfated glycosaminoglycan (sGAG), collagen and water contents were measured for each region. Biomechanical measurements of equilibrium compressive, dynamic compressive and dynamic shear moduli were made for anterior, central and posterior regions. RESULTS T1ρ and T2 times showed similar regional patterns, with longer relaxation times in the (radially) middle region compared to the inner and outer regions. Pooled over all regions, T1ρ and T2 times showed strong correlations both with one another and with water content. Correlations with biochemical content varied depending on normalization to wet or dry mass, and both imaging parameters showed stronger correlations with collagen compared to sGAG content. Mechanical properties displayed moderate inverse correlations with increasing T1ρ and T2 times and water content. CONCLUSION Both T1ρ and T2 relaxation times correlated strongly with water content and moderately with mechanical properties in osteoarthritic menisci, but not as strongly with sGAG or collagen contents alone. While the ability of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to detect early osteoarthritic changes remains the subject of investigation, these results suggest that T1ρ and T2 relaxation times have limited ability to detect compositional variations in degenerate menisci.

Abstract
Cellular therapies to replenish bone lost due to acquired conditions such as trauma, infection, tumor, periprosthetic osteolysis and other etiologies have become widespread. Traditional, open, surgical bone grafting techniques have given way to newer cellular therapies that are potentially less invasive and have a lower complication rate and faster recovery time. These new technologies include bone marrow harvesting with concentration of osteoprogenitor cells with/without cell culture, scaffolds which are both osteoconductive and osteoinductive, attempts to facilitate mesenchymal stem cell and osteoprogenitor cell homing both locally and systemically, genetic engineering of specialized stem cells, and the use of potentially immune-privileged fetal and other types of stem cells. Some of these techniques have already been introduced into the orthopaedic clinic, whereas others are still in the pre-clinical testing phase. Given the limited supply of autologous graft, these new techniques will have a dramatic impact on bone regeneration in the future.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study examined effects of intermittent hydrostatic pressure (IHP) and a chondrogenic growth factor, bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2), on anabolic, catabolic, and other metabolic markers in human osteoarthritic (OA) chondrocytes in vitro. METHODS Articular chondrocytes, isolated from femoral OA cartilage and maintained in high-density monolayer culture, were examined for effects of BMP-2 and IHP on gene expression of matrix-associated proteins (aggrecan, type II collagen, and SOX9) and catabolic matrix metalloproteinases (MMP-2 and MMP-3) and culture medium levels of the metabolic markers MMP-2, nitric oxide (NO), and glycosaminoglycan (GAG). The results were analyzed using a mixed linear regression model to investigate the effects of load and growth factor concentration. RESULTS IHP and BMP-2 modulated OA chondrocyte metabolism in accordance with growth factor concentration independently, without evidence of synergism or antagonism. Each type of stimulus acted independently on anabolic matrix gene expression. Type II collagen and SOX9 gene expression were stimulated by both IHP and BMP-2 whereas aggrecan was increased only by BMP-2. IHP exhibited a trend to decrease MMP-2 gene expression as a catabolic marker whereas BMP-2 did not. NO production was increased by addition of BMP-2 and IHP exhibited a trend for increased levels. GAG production was increased by BMP-2. CONCLUSIONS This study confirmed the hypothesis that human OA chondrocytes respond to a specific type of mechanical load, IHP, through enhanced articular cartilage macromolecule gene expression and that IHP, in combination with a chondrogenic growth factor BMP-2, additively enhanced matrix gene expression without interactive effects.

Abstract
ABSTRACTA new cementitious calcium phosphate biomaterial, SuperBone®, was implanted in both a rabbit femoral canal model and a canine humeral plug model. New Zealand White rabbits were implanted with cement through a novel surgical approach where cement was introduced by injection. In the canine model, a uniform gap of 3 mm around a fiber metal porous implant was filled by the cement. Undecalcified light and backscattered electron histological evaluations indicate the cement is highly biocompatible and is replaced by new bone in concert with cell-mediated resorption. Unlike the acrylic bone cement positive controls, no evidence of fibrous tissue was found around the cement.

Abstract
Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) particles generated from joint arthroplasties appear to contribute to aseptic implant loosening through inflammation-induced periprosthetic osteolysis. However, osteolysis appears to be multifactorial; whether a direct link exists between PMMA particles and osteolysis in vivo is unproven. With the aim to define the relationship between PMMA particles and osteolysis, the authors analyzed the bone mineral density, using microCT scans preoperatively, the first day postoperatively and then every 7-10 days for 32 days, and bone turnover, using (18)F-fluoride positron emission tomography scanner (PET scan) at 8 weeks in four groups of mice that had undergone intramedullary femoral injection. The experimental group of five mice was injected with PMMA particles, and compared with two negative control groups (no injection and injection with the carrier, phosphate-buffered saline) and one positive control group (injection of PMMA particles contaminated with endotoxin). There was no significant change in bone mineral density with addition of PMMA particles, and no evidence of osteolysis. However, bone turnover was increased in the presence of PMMA particles. Even though a direct link between PMMA particles and osteolysis was not found in the short term, PMMA particles appear to influence the regenerative capacity of bone.

Abstract
The inhibitor of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) is of interest in the nonoperative treatment of periprosthetic osteolysis due to wear particles. Previous studies demonstrated that an oral p38 MAPK inhibitor did not suppress bone formation when given during the initial phase of tissue differentiation. However, the oral p38 MAPK inhibitor also did not curtail the foreign body and chronic inflammatory response to particles when given simultaneously. The purpose of the current study was to examine the efficacy of a p38 MAPK inhibitor, SCIO-323, on mitigating an established inflammatory reaction that parallels the clinical situation more closely. The Bone Harvest Chamber was implanted in rabbits and submicron polyethylene particles were placed in the chamber for 6 weeks. The contents of the chambers were harvested every 6 weeks. Oral treatment with the SCIO-323 included delivery for 3 weeks and stopping for 3 weeks, delivery for 3 weeks after an initial 3-week delay, and delivery for 6 weeks continuously. Administration of the SCIO-323 continuously for 6 weeks with/without the presence of particles, or for the initial 3 of 6 weeks had minor effects on bone ingrowth. After establishing a particle-induced chronic inflammatory reaction for 3 weeks, administration of SCIO-323 for a subsequent 3 weeks suppressed net bone formation. The activity of osteoclast-like cells remained low among all treatments when compared with the first control. Using the present model, the oral p38 MAPK inhibitor was ineffective in improving bone ingrowth in the presence of polyethylene particles.

Abstract
The effects of an oral p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) inhibitor and polyethylene particles separately and together on tissue differentiation in the bone harvest chamber (BHC) in rabbits over a 3-week treatment period were investigated. The harvested tissue was analyzed histomorphometrically for markers of bone formation (percentage of bone area), osteoblasts (alkaline phosphatase staining), and osteoclasts (CD51, the alpha chain of the vitronectin receptor). Polyethylene particles decreased the percentage of bone ingrowth and staining for alkaline phosphatase. The p38 MAPK inhibitor alone decreased alkaline phosphatase staining. When the oral p38 MAPK inhibitor was given and the chamber contained polyethylene particles, there was a suppression of bone ingrowth and alkaline phosphatase staining. In contrast to oral non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and local Interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) administration, the oral p38 MAPK inhibitor alone did not suppress bone formation when given during the initial phase of tissue differentiation. Particle-induced inflammation and the foreign body reaction were not curtailed when the p38 MAPK inhibitor was given simultaneously with particles. Additional experiments are needed to establish the efficacy of p38 MAPK inhibitor administration on mitigating an established inflammatory and foreign body reaction that parallels the clinical situation more closely.

Abstract
Excessive polyethylene wear particles from joint replacements may lead to periprosthetic osteolysis and loosening. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) decrease fracture healing and bone ingrowth. We hypothesized that continuous local infusion of OP-1 (BMP-7) would increase local bone formation in the presence of two different adverse stimuli, polyethylene particles, and an oral NSAID. The Drug Test Chamber (DTC) was implanted in the proximal tibia of mature rabbits. The tissue growing into the chamber was exposed to OP-1 solution (110 ng/day), which was infused via an osmotic pump. Infusion of OP-1 alone for 6 weeks enhanced local bone formation in the chamber by 80% (p < 0.05) over infusion of carrier alone. In the presence of polyethylene particles, infusion of OP-1 increased local bone formation by 38% (p < 0.05) over treatment with particles and carrier. Oral administration of NSAID reduced local bone formation by 58% (p < 0.05); this suppressive effect caused by NSAIDS was completely reversed by the infusion of OP-1 (p < 0.05). These findings underline a potential role for local treatment with OP-1 to increase bone formation in the presence of potentially adverse stimuli such as polyethylene wear particles or NSAID use.

Abstract
The pro-angiogenic cytokine vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has been implicated in periprosthetic osteolysis and subsequent aseptic loosening of implants following total hip arthroplasty (THA). The goal of this study was to investigate whether increased VEGF at the bone-implant interface is secondary to a greater number of VEGF-producing cells or to increased VEGF production by individual cells. Real time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) techniques were used to assess the expression of VEGF mRNA (isoforms 121, 165, 189) in periprosthetic tissues from revision THAs. Immunofluorescence was used to determine both differences in overall cellularity and in VEGF-producing cell type (macrophages, fibroblasts, endothelial cells) between patients with periprosthetic osteolysis (OL) and a control group undergoing primary THA for osteoarthritis (OA). Quantitative analysis of VEGF release in periprosthetic membranes via RT-PCR demonstrated no significant difference in the per-cell mRNA production of VEGF isoforms 121 165, or 189 between OL and OA patient groups. Immunofluorescence showed both higher cellularity and higher overall VEGF expression in the OL group. Immunofluorescence also showed a significant increase in macrophages in the OL group, but no significant difference in the proportion of fibroblasts or endothelial cells between the OL and OA groups. Co-localization of CD68+ and CD11b+ macrophage fluorescent signals with VEGF signal was greater in the OL group than in the OA group. Our results demonstrate that increased VEGF in OL periprosthetic tissue compared to OA synovium is correlated to increased numbers of VEGF-producing CD68+ and CD11b+ macrophages. Impact statement: Aseptic loosening, caused in large part by OL, remains the major cause of failed THAs leading to revision surgery. At the bone-implant interface, we found increased numbers of macrophages-cellular mediators of OL-and increased VEGF expression. VEGF may be a possible target for therapeutic intervention in mitigating OL.

Abstract
Wear particles generated following total joint arthroplasty interact with cells at the periprosthetic margin and induce an inflammatory response that contributes to osteolysis, aseptic loosening, and implant failure. This study examined the long-term effects of particles from two commonly implanted materials, titanium (Ti) and polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), on cell viability and metabolism over a 21-day time course, using the human osteoblast-like cell line MG-63. Addition of particles was not associated with increased cell death or nitric oxide production at the particle concentration chosen. Collagen production was increased with exposure to titanium particles, whereas alkaline phosphatase and osteocalcin expression remained unchanged following exposure to both types of particles. The data show that titanium but not PMMA particles shifts bone cell metabolism to preferentially produce fibrous tissue rather than bone.

Abstract
Corpora lutea (CL) were isolated from one rabbit ovary on days 4, 8, 16 (peak luteal function), 28 (functional regression) and 30 of pregnancy and processed for biochemical analysis of DNA integrity. Analysis of DNA integrity revealed the presence of oligonucleosomal fragments in day 28 and day 30 CL but not in day 16 CL. The extent of low molecular weight (<15 kb) DNA labeling was 6.6 +/- 0.84 fold higher in day 30 as compared to day 16 CL (mean +/- SEM; n = 4, P < 0.01). In a second series of experiments, healthy CL collected from day 16 pregnant rabbits were incubated for 2 h in the absence or presence of 250 microg/ml of placental extract (PE) obtained from day 16 and/or day 30 placentas. Analysis of DNA integrity revealed that extensive apoptosis occurred in CL incubated in medium alone and in medium containing day 30 PE. In contrast, day 16 PE significantly suppressed apoptosis vs control (70 +/- 4%). In a third series of experiments, expression of mRNA for bcl-x and bax was measured by Northern analysis of CL treated without and with day 16 PE using cRNA probes for bcl-x and bax developed in our laboratory by RT-PCR. Treatment with PE significantly reduced bax mRNA levels but did not change bcl-x mRNA levels. These studies provide evidence that functional luteolysis in the pregnant rabbit CL is correlated with the occurrence of apoptosis. The data suggest that a factor(s) derived from the placenta may be responsible for the prolongation of CL life span during pregnancy by its ability to alter the bax:bcl -x rheostat and suppress apoptosis.

Abstract
The study objective was to determine the tissue response to polyethylene and/or titanium particles and the role that these play in peri-prosthetic osteolysis in a rabbit model of implant failure. Twenty-two mature rabbits were used. Unilateral tibial arthroplasty was performed on all of them. The test animals received implants that were intentionally rotationally unstable with reference to the host tibia in order to create a model of failure. The test rabbits were divided into three groups. Group 1 consisted of seven rabbits in which only the carrier was implanted. Group 2 consisted of seven rabbits that received only polyethylene particles suspended in the carrier. Group 3 consisted of eight rabbits that received a mixture of polyethylene and titanium alloy particles suspended in the carrier. The rabbits were sacrificed at 6 months post surgery. The entire knee, together with the immediately surrounding soft tissue, was retrieved. The position of the implant in each rabbit was assessed with reference to its alignment to the tibia. The number of inflammatory, foreign-body reactive cells, the presence of neovascularization, edema, and necrosis in the periprosthetic zones were recorded and assessed in a qualitative and semiquantitative manner. Quantitative histomorphometry was used to determine the proportion of implant surface that interfaced with osseous or fibrous tissue. Also assessed was the thickness and maturity of the fibrous tissue and the endosteal remodeling activity in the peri-implant bone counting both osteoclastic and osteoblastic activity. The results showed that implanted particles and misalignment of the implants combined to produce peri-prosthetic bone resorption. Bone resorption was found to be proportional to the degree of misalignment. The animals that received combined polyethylene/titanium particles had a greater degree of foreign-body and inflammatory response with osteolysis than the other groups. The combination of bio-material particles (polyethylene and titanium alloy) produced a greater degree of bone resorption than the single biomaterial particles (polyethylene). The amount of bone resorption surrounding the implant was directly proportional to the degree of misalignment of the implant.

Abstract
Perioperative knee mechanics currently are evaluated Perioperative knee mechanics currently are evaluated by measuring range of motion. This is an incomplete measurement, however, because the torque applied to achieve the motion is not measured. We hypothesized that a custom goniometer and force transducer could measure the torque required to passively flex a knee through its full range of motion. This measurement was done in the operating room immediately before and after surgery in 20 knees having total knee arthroplasty and 9 having surgery on another limb. Surgery changed the mechanics of 8 knees, whereas unoperated knees remained unchanged. This measurement technique is safe, easy, and repeatable. It improves on the current standard of perioperative knee measurement and can be applied to investigate the effects of surgery and rehabilitation on ultimate knee motion.

Abstract
C-C chemokines are soluble mediators that occur in a periprosthetic granuloma and influence recruitment, localization and activation of inflammatory cells. This study tested effects of titanium and polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) particles on expression of selected C-C chemokines in cultured human fibroblasts. The C-C chemokines analyzed included monocyte chemoattractant protein-1. 2 (MCP-1. 2), monocyte inflammatory protein-1 alpha (MIP-1 alpha), and regulated on activation, normal T-cell expressed and secreted protein (RANTES). Interleukin-1 beta (IL-1 beta) served as a known stimulator of chemokine release while interleukin-6 (IL-6) expression served as a marker for fibroblast activation. Protein and mRNA signal levels were determined by ELISA and RT-PCR, respectively. The results demonstrated that exposure of fibroblasts to titanium and PMMA particles resulted in increased release of MCP-1 in a dose- and time-dependent manner. After 24 h, titanium particles maximally upregulated MCP-1 release 7-fold while PMMA particles increased MCP-1 levels 2-fold, when compared to unchallenged fibroblasts. MCP-2, MIP-1 alpha and RANTES levels remained unchanged following exposure of fibroblasts to titanium or PMMA particles at any concentration or time point tested. However, IL-1 beta stimulated release of MCP-1, MCP-2, and RANTES, but not MIP-1 alpha from the fibroblasts. IL-1 beta, not particles, exhibited the most prominent effect on MCP-1 mRNA levels. Increased release of MCP-1 from fibroblasts exposed to titanium and PMMA particles coincided with increased release of IL-6. This study suggests that release of chemoattractant factors from fibroblasts localized in periprosthetic membranes enhances the chronic inflammatory process leading to bone resorption and implant loosening.

Abstract
Periprosthetic membranes commonly observed at sites of total joint implant loosening exhibit abundant macrophages and particulate debris. Macrophages phagocytose orthopedic debris and release the pro-inflammatory mediators interleukin-1, interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, and prostaglandin E2. Populations of activated lymphocytes are often seen in periprosthetic membranes. These lymphocytes may modulate the monocyte/macrophage response to particulate debris and influence aseptic loosening. In addition, other immunologic agents, such as interleukin-10, are present in tissues harvested from the bone-implant interface of failed total joint arthroplasties. The present study examined the effects of interleukin-10 on polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) particle challenged human monocyte/macrophages in vitro. Human monocyte/macrophages isolated from buffy coats of five healthy individuals were exposed to 1-10 microm PMMA particles. Interleukin-10 was added to the monocyte/macrophages with and without the addition of PMMA particles. Interleukin-10-induced alterations in monocyte/macrophage metabolism were determined measuring interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha release by the cells following exposure to PMMA particles. Exposure of the monocyte/macrophages to PMMA particles resulted in a dose-dependent release of interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha at 48 h. Interleukin-10 reduced the levels of interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha release by macrophages in response to PMMA particles in a dose-dependent manner. At 48 h, particle-induced interleukin-6 release was inhibited by 60 and 90% with 1.0 and 10.0 ng/ml treatments of interleukin-10, respectively. At 48 h, particle-induced tumor necrosis factor-alpha release was inhibited by 58 and 88% with 1.0 and 10.0 ng/ml treatments of interleukin-10, respectively. Interleukin-10 challenge alone did not significantly alter basal interleukin-6 or tumor necrosis factor-alpha release relative to control cultures. The data presented in this study demonstrate that the anti-inflammatory cytokine, interleukin-10, inhibits monocyte/macrophage release of the pro-inflammatory cytokines interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha in response to PMMA particle challenge in vitro.

Abstract
In a prospective consecutive series, 53 revision hip arthroplasties were performed in 51 patients. Pre- and postoperative Duplex ultrasonography examinations were reviewed by an independent, experienced radiologist. Three of 51 patients (53 procedures) had evidence of chronic deep venous thrombosis (DVT) or other venous abnormality preoperatively, yielding an incidence of 5.6%. One (1.9%) patient developed an acute DVT postoperatively despite pharmacological and mechanical preventative measures. These results indicate the use of preoperative ultrasonography as a screening tool prior to revision hip arthroplasty is not warranted based on the low incidence of acute or chronic DVT detected preoperatively. Long-term anticoagulation, when necessary, can be based on the findings of a postoperative scan.

Abstract
This study evaluated the effects of osteogenic protein 1/collagen composite (OP-1/col) mixed with impacted allograft around hydroxyapatite (HA)-coated titanium alloy implants in a canine model. The aim of the study was to test different doses of OP-1 growth factor in a collagen composite for stimulatory effect on allograft incorporation around an implant. Unloaded implants were inserted in each proximal humerus of 16 skeletally mature dogs. The cylindrical implants (4 x 9 mm) coated with HA were initially surrounded by a 3-mm gap into which allograft mixed with OP-1/col was impacted. Two different doses of OP-1 were investigated. In eight animals 325 mg OP-1 protein and 130 mg bovine collagen type I as carrier were mixed with the allograft chips. This composite is identical to the clinically used OP-1 device called Novus. In another eight animals a lower dose of 65 mg OP-1 protein and 130 mg bovine collagen type I was used. Control implants placed in the contralateral humerus were surrounded by allograft mixed with collagen carrier only. The dogs were euthanized at 6 weeks. Implant fixation was determined by push-out testing. Bone ingrowth and bone formation were evaluated by quantitative histomorphometry on serial sections of the bone-implant interface. Impacted allograft together with low-dose OP-1 enhanced bone volume in a zone adjacent to HA-coated titanium alloy implants. The high dose had no effect on bone formation. Mechanical fixation, bone ingrowth, and bone volume in the gap near the original trabecular bone were unaffected by both low and high OP-1/col composite. In this model and observation period, the low dose of OP-1/col composite mixed with impacted allograft has a moderate effect on bone healing around HA-coated implants and no effect on implant fixation.

Abstract
Periprosthetic tissues observed at sites of loose total joint implants exhibit abundant macrophages, lymphocytes, fibroblasts and particulate debris. Macrophages phagocytose orthopaedic debris and release proinflammatory cytokines, chemokines, matrix metalloproteinases and other substances. In addition, other cell types present in tissues harvested from the bone-implant interface are thought to influence periprosthetic bone resorption. The present study examined the effects of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), cobalt chrome molybdenum alloy (CoCr), and titanium-alloy particle challenge on macrophages co-cultured with lymphocytes in vitro. Potential synergistic effects of lymphocytes on macrophage activation were determined by measuring interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha release following exposure to orthopaedic biomaterial particles. Exposure of macrophages or macrophages co-cultured with lymphocytes to all three types of particles resulted in increased release of interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha at 48 h, when compared to macrophages or macrophages co-cultured with lymphocytes, respectively, cultured in the absence of particles. Lymphocytes isolated from periprosthetic tissues secreted increased basal levels of cytokines relative to peripheral blood lymphocytes. Higher doses of PMMA and titanium-alloy particles stimulated increased levels of cytokine release in the macrophage and macrophage/lymphocyte groups. In contrast, a higher dose of CoCr particles (0.075% v/v) was not as effective as the 0.015% v/v dose, indicating probable CoCr toxicity. The macrophage/lymphocyte co-culture did not show synergism between the two types of cells with respect to cytokine release. T-cells at the bone-implant interface may alter the biological response to particulate debris.

Abstract
CCR7, along with L-selectin and LFA-1, mediates homing of T cells to secondary lymphoid organs via high endothelial venules (HEV). CCR7 has also been implicated in microenvironmental positioning of lymphocytes within secondary lymphoid organs and in return of lymphocytes and dendritic cells to the lymph after passage through nonlymphoid tissues. We have generated mAbs to human CCR7, whose specificities correlate with functional migration of lymphocyte subsets to known CCR7 ligands. We find that CCR7 is expressed on the vast majority of peripheral blood T cells, including most cells that express adhesion molecules (cutaneous lymphocyte Ag alpha(4)beta(7) integrin) required for homing to nonlymphoid tissues. A subset of CD27(neg) memory CD4 T cells from human peripheral blood is greatly enriched in the CCR7(neg) population, as well as L-selectin(neg) cells, suggesting that these cells are incapable of homing to secondary lymphoid organs. Accordingly, CD27(neg) T cells are rare within tonsil, a representative secondary lymphoid organ. All resting T cells within secondary lymphoid organs express high levels of CCR7, but many activated cells lack CCR7. CCR7 loss in activated CD4 cells accompanies CXC chemokine receptor (CXCR)5 gain, suggesting that the reciprocal expression of these two receptors may contribute to differential positioning of resting vs activated cells within the organ. Lymphocytes isolated from nonlymphoid tissues (such as skin, lung, or intestine) contain many CD27(neg) cells lacking CCR7. The ratio of CD27(neg)/CCR7(neg) cells to CD27(pos)/CCR7(pos) cells varies from tissue to tissue, and may correlate with the number of cells actively engaged in Ag recognition within a given tissue.

Abstract
The outcome of sliding trochanteric osteotomy in revision total hip arthroplasty was assessed by comparing preoperative and postoperative static radiographic biomechanics and clinical hip abductor function of 22 consecutive operations (20 patients). Preoperative and postoperative pelvic radiographs were reviewed to quantify the biomechanical reconstruction of the hip abductor mechanism. Abductor muscle length and abductor moment arm were increased significantly (P <.05) by the operation. There was a significant (P <.05) increase in maximum degrees of active hip abduction from the preoperative to the postoperative state, an average of 32 months (range, 6-65 months) after surgery. The dysfunction index (a radiographic representation of hip torque) correlated positively (r =.63; P <.05) with active hip abduction. Sliding trochanteric osteotomy improves abductor biomechanics and may protect against trochanteric migration in revision total hip arthroplasty.

Abstract
Periprosthetic granulomatous membranes consisting of fibroblasts, macrophages, lymphocytes, foreign body giant cells, and abundant particulate debris occur at sites of implant loosening. Previous studies demonstrate that fibroblasts respond to particulate debris through the release of interleukin-6 (IL-6), prostaglandin E(2), and matrix metalloproteinases in vitro. C-C chemokines are observed in granulomatous tissue surrounding loosened prosthetic implants and are released by macrophages and fibroblasts in response to particle challenge in vitro. This study tested the hypothesis that G protein activity is required for fibroblast activation by titanium and polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) particles, and that inhibition of G protein activity would alter IL-6 and and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) release from activated fibroblasts. The specific inhibitor of G protein activity, pertussis toxin, was added to the fibroblasts to examine the effects of G protein activity with respect to the production of IL-6 and MCP-1 by orthopedic biomaterial-challenged fibroblasts in vitro. Interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta), a proven activator of MCP-1 and interleukin-6, was used as a positive control. Exposure of fibroblasts to titanium and polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) particles resulted in a dose-dependent release of MCP-1 and IL-6. Challenge with PMMA particles at doses of 0.150%, 0.300%, and 0.600% vol/vol increased the release of interleukin-6 by 7-, 19-, and 22-fold, respectively, compared to fibroblasts exposed to serum-free culture medium alone at 24 h. Challenge with PMMA particles at doses of 0.075%, 0.150%, 0.300%, and 0.600% vol/vol increased the release of MCP-1-6 by 2.5-, 3.6-, 4. 3-, and 4.5-fold, respectively, compared to fibroblasts exposed to serum-free culture medium alone. Challenge with titanium particles at concentrations of 0.075%, 0.150%, 0.300%, and 0.600% vol/vol increased the release of interleukin-6 by 2.6-, 6.4-, 9.6-, and 10. 0-fold, respectively, compared to fibroblasts exposed to serum-free culture medium alone at 24 h. Challenge with titanium particles at concentrations of 0.038%, 0.075%, 0.150%, 0.300%, and 0.600% vol/vol increased the release of MCP-1 by 2.9-, 3.1-, 5.8-, 5.4-, and 5. 8-fold, respectively, compared to fibroblasts exposed to serum-free culture medium alone. Pretreatment of fibroblasts with pertussis toxin inhibited the release of interleukin-6 and MCP-1 from PMMA and titanium particle challenged fibroblasts in a dose-dependent manner. PMMA particle induced fibroblast IL-6 release was inhibited by 23.6% and 35.3% with 20- and 200-ng/mL doses of pertussis toxin, respectively. Titanium particle induced fibroblast IL-6 release was inhibited by 48.2% and 56.3% with 20- and 200-ng/mL doses of pertussis toxin, respectively. PMMA particle-induced fibroblast MCP-1 release was inhibited by 36.0%, 50.4%, and 60.1% with 2-, 20- and 200-ng/mL doses of pertussis toxin, respectively. Titanium particle-induced fibroblast MCP-1 release was inhibited by 15.5%, 53.2%, and 64.6% with 2-, 20-, and 200-ng/mL doses of pertussis toxin, respectively. This study suggests that fibroblasts localized in periprosthetic membranes are a source of macrophage chemoattractant factors and proinflammatory mediators that may influence granuloma formation and lead to periprosthetic bone resorption. Furthermore, this study shows that G proteins are involved in particle-induced fibroblast activation, as evidenced by decrease levels of particle induced IL-6 and MCP-1 release following pertussis toxin treatment.

Abstract
The articular cartilage of diarthrodial joints experiences a variety of stresses, strains and pressures that result from normal activities of daily living. In normal cartilage, the extracellular matrix exists as a highly organized composite of specialized macromolecules that distributes loads at the bony ends. The chondrocyte response to mechanical loading is recognized as an integral component in the maintenance of articular cartilage matrix homeostasis. With inappropriate mechanical loading of the joint, as occurs with traumatic injury, ligament instability, bony malalignment or excessive weight bearing, the cartilage exhibits manifestations characteristic of osteoarthritis. Breakdown of cartilage in osteoarthritis involves degradation of the extracellular matrix macromolecules and decreased expression of chondrocyte proteins necessary for normal joint function. Osteoarthritic cartilage often exhibits increased amounts of type I collagen and synthesis of proteoglycans characteristic of immature cartilage. The shift in cartilage phenotype in response to altered load yields a matrix that fails to support normal joint function. Mathematical modeling and experimental studies in animal models confirm an association between altered loading of diarthrotic joints and arthritic changes. Both types of studies implicate shear forces as a critical component in the destructive profile. The severity of cartilage destruction in response to altered loads appears linked to expression of biological factors influencing matrix integrity and cellular metabolism. Determining how shear stress alters chondrocyte metabolism is fundamental to understanding how to limit matrix destruction and stimulate cartilage repair and regeneration. At present, the precise biochemical and molecular mechanisms by which shear forces alter chondrocyte metabolism from a normal to a degenerative phenotype remain unclear. The results presented here address the hypothesis that articular chondrocyte metabolism is modulated by direct effects of shear forces that act on the cell through mechanotransduction processes. The purpose of this work is to develop critical knowledge regarding the basic mechanisms by which mechanical loading modulates cartilage metabolism in health and disease. This presentation will describe the effects of using fluid induced shear stress as a model system for stimulation of articular chondrocytes in vitro. The fluid induced shear stress was applied using a cone viscometer system to stimulate all the cells uniformly under conditions of minimal turbulence. The experiments were carried using high-density primary monolayer cultures of normal and osteoarthritic human and normal bovine articular chondrocytes. The analysis of the cellular response included quantification of cytokine release, matrix metalloproteinase expression and activation of intracellular signaling pathways. The data presented here show that articular chondrocytes exhibit a dose- and time-dependent response to shear stress that results in the release of soluble mediators and extracellular matrix macromolecules. The data suggest that the chondrocyte response to mechanical stimulation contributes to the maintenance of articular cartilage homeostasis in vivo.

Abstract
Orthopaedic wear debris induces release of bone-resorbing factors from macrophages and fibroblasts. However, the extent to which elemental metallic particles induce bone cells to express factors contributing to implant loosening remains unclear. This study showed that exposure of MG-63 osteoblast-like cells to titanium particles at a concentration of 0.30% v/v resulted in a 15-fold increase in IL-6 release into the culture medium after 24 hours, when compared with cells without particles. Northern blots revealed that exposure of MG-63 cells to titanium particles at a concentration of 0.30% v/v for 24 hours increased IL-6 mRNA signal levels by 9.6-fold, when compared with control cultures. Pretreatment of MG-63 cells with cytochalasin B prevented the particle-induced increase of IL-6 expression but did not alter the basal level of IL-6 release from cells cultured in the absence of particles. The protein kinase C inhibitor, H7, and the serine/threonine kinase inhibitor, genistein, abolished the particle-induced increase in IL-6 release at a concentration of 100 microM for each compound. In contrast, an inhibitor of protein kinase A, HA1004, had no effect on the particle-induced increase in IL-6 release. The transcription factors, nuclear factor IL-6 and nuclear factor kappa B, translocated into the nucleus within 1 hour of particle exposure. This study showed that osteoblast-like cells respond to titanium particles through increased expression of the proinflammatory cytokine, IL-6, in a process requiring phagocytosis and intracellular signaling pathways. These results suggest that osteoblasts play a direct role in implant loosening because of localized release of soluble mediators such as interleukin-6.

Abstract
Arthritis is a major burden on society and the individual. Arthritis affects all age groups and races, and is more prevalent in women than men by approximately 1.65:1. Nearly one half of people aged > or = 65 years report the presence of arthritic symptoms; however, by no means is arthritis a disease of only the elderly. The burden of arthritis will continue to increase due to expected future increases in the size and age of the general population. Currently, the total costs of medical care and lost wages due to arthritis are in excess of 64 billion dollars per year in the United States. For the individual, arthritis may cause substantial pain, impair mobility, curtail physical activity, and have a negative impact on mental health. The two most common forms of arthritis, osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, have major health complications. From the perspective of the orthopedic surgeon, the aim of treatment of arthritic conditions includes early, accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment to minimize pain and maximize function. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are frequently used as part of the medical management of patients with arthritis. These medications are effective in mitigating pain and inflammation associated with arthritis. However, side effects (most notably of the gastrointestinal tract) have limited the more widespread use of NSAIDs. The newer cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors have proven to be efficacious and have demonstrated fewer gastrointestinal adverse effects. Furthermore, COX-2 inhibitors do not appear to adversely affect platelet function. For these reasons, consideration may be given to using COX-2 perioperatively, however, drug interactions must be closely monitored.

Abstract
This study analysed MIF mRNA and protein expression in human macrophages exposed in vitro to polymethylmethacryate and titanium alloy particles. MIF levels released from macrophages without exposure to particles were in the range of 2-4 ng/ml. Exposure of macrophages to particles as demonstrated increased MIF release at 0. 075%-0.225% v/v particle concentration, which was maximal at 12-24 h. MIF mRNA signal levels in cells with and without particles at a concentration of 0.075% showed no significant differences in a time course experiment. The profile of MIF release in response to increasing particle concentration coincided with increased release of lactate dehydrogenase. The viability of the cells was unchanged by the addition of particles as determined by 3H-thymidine uptake. These data suggest that MIF expression may represent an independent macrophage response to locally high particle concentrations.

Abstract
Four calcium phosphate cement formulations were implanted in the rabbit distal femoral metaphysis and middiaphysis. Chemical, crystallographic, and histological analyses were made at 2, 4, and 8 weeks after implantation. When implanted into the metaphysis, part of the brushite cement was converted into carbonated apatite by 2 weeks. Some of the brushite cement was removed by mononuclear macrophages prior to its conversion into apatite. Osteoclastlike cell mediated remodeling was predominant at 8 weeks after brushite had converted to apatite. The same histological results were seen for brushite plus calcite aggregate cement, except with calcite aggregates still present at 8 weeks. However, when implanted in the diaphysis, brushite and brushite plus calcite aggregate did not convert to another calcium phosphate phase by 4 weeks. Carbonated apatite cement implanted in the metaphysis did not transform to another calcium phosphate phase. There was no evidence of adverse foreign body reaction. Osteoclastlike cell mediated remodeling was predominant at 8 weeks. The apatite plus calcite aggregate cement implanted in the metaphysis that was not remodeled remained as poorly crystalline apatite. Calcite aggregates were still present at 8 weeks. There was no evidence of foreign body reaction. Osteoclastlike cell remodeling was predominant at 8 weeks. Response to brushite cements prior to conversion to apatite was macrophage dominated, and response to apatite cements was osteoclast dominated. Mineralogy, chemical composition, and osseous implantation site of these calcium phosphates significantly affected their in vivo host response.

Abstract
Clinical studies suggest a role for polyethylene (PE) wear debris in the pathogenesis of osteolysis and loosening of total joint replacements. In this study, submicron particles of ultrahigh molecular weight PE (UHMWPE) were placed around pressfit tibial hemiarthroplasties in rabbits to determine the biological reaction. After 6 months the periprosthetic tissue was harvested and characterized biochemically by measuring the extracellular matrix macromolecules, collagen, and glycosaminoglycan (GAG) and quantifying the expression of inflammatory/osteolytic mediators [prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), hexosaminidase, transforming growth factor beta (TGF beta), and interleukins-6 and -1 (IL-6, IL-1)]. Particle exposure resulted in a decrease in levels of total extracellular matrix molecules including a 53% decrease in total GAG (p < 0.05) and a 74% decrease in total collagen (p < 0.005). Collagen content remained significantly decreased when normalized for cellularity (DNA content). Total TGF beta release exhibited a downward trend (p = 0.06) in the particle exposed group. Hexosaminidase and PGE2 levels did not show a difference between groups; however, when normalized for cellularity, PGE2 values exhibited an upward trend in the particle exposed group (p = 0.1). IL-6 was undetected by bioassay and ELISA. Previous studies emphasized that PE debris enhances the degradation of bone. The data from this in vivo model suggest that submicron UHMWPE particles may also act to inhibit biosynthetic pathways of bone and mesenchymal tissue. Decreased levels of collagen, GAG, and TGF beta expression may indicate suppression of bone formation, possibly through a downregulation of osteoblast activity.

Abstract
Cytokines that regulate monocyte migration were found in membrane tissue surrounding loosened prosthetic implants. Monocyte migration inhibition factor (MIF) is able to inhibit macrophage migration. Monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP) and macrophage inflammatory protein (MIP) are potent macrophage chemoattractants. These cytokines may be expressed as part of the foreign body response to prosthetic particulate debris. Chemotaxis analysis and macrophage activation experiments were performed to determine the effects of MIF, MCP-1, and MIP-1alpha on macrophage migration and activation in vitro. We demonstrated that MIF had its maximal migration inhibitory effect for unchallenged and particle challenged macrophages at 1 ng/mL. MCP-1 and MIP-1alpha stimulated macrophage chemotaxis maximally at 1 to 10 ng/mL. Dose-response studies with MIF, MCP-1, and MIP-1alpha demonstrated that these cytokines did not modulate activation of unchallenged or particle challenged macrophages as evaluated by IL-6 and TNF-alpha release. However, these cytokines do not appear to affect macrophage release of proinflammatory mediators in vitro.

Abstract
This study evaluated the effects of osteogenic protein 1 (OP-1) placed in a gap around uncoated and hydroxyapatite (HA)-coated implants. Unloaded cylindrical titanium alloy implants were inserted in the femoral condyles of 16 skeletally mature dogs surrounded by a 3-mm gap. The gap around the implants was filled with 325 microg OP-1 in 130 mg bovine collagen type I as carrier (OP-1 device) or collagen carrier alone or left empty. All groups were tested with both HA-coated and uncoated implants, and the animals were sacrificed after 6 weeks. Implant fixation was determined by push-out test. Bone ongrowth and bone formation were evaluated by quantitative histomorphometry. OP-1 device enhanced mechanical fixation of uncoated and HA-coated implants, resulting in a higher shear strength than implants with collagen matrix and control implants. Bone ingrowth and bone formation in the gap were also stimulated 3-fold for OP-1 groups when compared with empty controls, but no difference was found between OP-1 groups and collagen matrix groups. This study suggests that the OP-1 device placed in a gap around uncoated and HA-coated implants is capable of enhancing mechanical fixation and periimplant bone formation. The collagen carrier alone also enhanced bone ongrowth and fixation significantly.

Abstract
The normal loading of joints during daily activities causes the articular cartilage to be exposed to high levels of intermittent hydrostatic pressure. This study quantified effects of intermittent hydrostatic pressure on expression of mRNA for important extracellular matrix constituents. Normal adult bovine articular chondrocytes were isolated and tested in primary culture, either as high-density monolayers or formed aggregates. Loaded cells were exposed to 10 MPa of intermittent hydrostatic pressure at a frequency of 1 Hz for periods of 2, 4, 8, 12, and 24 hrs. Other cells were intermittently loaded for a period of 4 hrs per day for 4 days. Semiquantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction assays were used to assess mRNA signal levels for collagen types II and I and aggrecan. The results showed that type II collagen mRNA signal levels exhibited a biphasic pattern, with an initial increase of approximately five-fold at 4 and 8 hrs that subsequently decreased by 24 hrs. In contrast, aggrecan mRNA signal increased progressively up to three-fold throughout the loading period. Changing the loading profile to 4 hrs per day for 4 days increased the mRNA signal levels for type II collagen nine-fold and for aggrecan twenty-fold when compared to unloaded cultures. These data suggest that specific mechanical loading protocols may be required to optimally promote repair and regeneration of diseased joints.

Abstract
Debonding of the cement-implant interface has been hypothesized to be the leading initial indicator of failed total hip prostheses. Many attempts have been made to increase the bond strength of this interface by precoating the implant, increasing the implant's surface roughness, and creating macro-grooves or channels on the implant. However, each of these approaches introduces new complications. This study introduces a unique silane coupling agent used to chemically bond the bone cement to the implant. Cylindrical cobalt-chrome samples were treated with the silane coupling agent, bonded to polymethylmethacrylate, and pushed out to failure. The mean shear strengths were compared to the failure strengths of untreated samples. Half of the specimens were tested immediately following cement curing, and the other half were tested after immersion in saline solution for 60 days. The mean shear strength of the silane-coated samples ranged from 18.2 to 24.1 MPa, and the mean shear strength of the uncoated samples ranged from 7.6 to 15.0 MPa. The increase in strength following silane coating noted in this study may increase the longevity of the implant by decreasing debonding at the interface and, therefore, subsequent failure due to loosening.

Abstract
In a prospective, consecutive series, 41 total hip arthroplasties were performed in 27 small-proportioned patients with small femoral dimensions. The 17 female and 10 male patients averaged 23.6 years (range, 14-47 years), and the mean height and weight were 157 cm (range, 132-183 cm) and 53.5 kg (range, 36-84 kg). The most common preoperative diagnosis was juvenile rheumatoid arthritis in 18 patients (28 hips). Most patients were severely disabled in their daily activity, and 68% of the patients were classified as Charnley functional class C. The femoral implants consisted primarily of the proximally porous-coated miniature Anatomic Medullary Locking femoral component (AML/CDH, Depuy, Warsaw, IN) in 33 hips in 22 patients (average stem diameter, 9.5 mm; range, 8-12.0 mm). A porous ingrowth acetabular cup fixed with screws was used in all procedures. At an average follow-up of 51 months, Harris Hip Scores improved significantly from 34 points (range, 0-65 points) preoperatively to 85 points (range, 33-100 points) after arthroplasty. There were no intraoperative complications. There was 1 revision because of femoral implant loosening. Three cementless femoral components showed evidence of nonprogressive subsidence. One patient had significant bilateral acetabular component polyethylene wear and underwent revision. All other femoral and acetabular components were radiographically stable. The relief of pain and improvement of function were dramatic. The miniature AML/CDH femoral component, combined with an uncemented acetabular cup, provides a promising, off-the-shelf alternative in small-proportioned patients.

Abstract
We implanted bone harvest chambers (BHCs) bilaterally in ten mature male New Zealand white rabbits. Polyethylene particles (0.3 ± 0.1 −m in diameter, 6.4×1012 particles/ml) were implanted for two, four or six weeks bilaterally in the BHCs, with subsequent removal of the ingrown tissue after each treatment. In addition to the particles, one side also received 1.5 −g of recombinant transforming growth factor ß1 (TGFβ1). At two weeks, the bone area as a percentage of total area was less in chambers containing TGFβ compared with those with particles alone (7.8 ± 1.3% v 16.9 ± 2.7% respectively; 95% confidence interval (CI) for difference -14.0 to -4.30; p = 0.002). At four weeks, the percentage area of bone was greater in chambers containing TGFβ compared with those with particles alone (31.2 ± 3.4% v 22.5 ± 2.0% respectively; 95% CI for difference 1.0 to 16.4; p = 0.03). There were no statistical differences at six weeks, despite a higher mean value with TGFβ treatment (38.2 ± 3.9% v 28.8 ± 3.5%; 95% CI for difference -4.6 to 23.3; p = 0.16). The number of vitronectin-receptor-positive cells (osteoclast-like cells) was greater in the treatment group with TGFβ compared with that with particles alone; most of these positive cells were located in the interstitium, rather than adjacent to bone. TGFβ1 is a pleotropic growth factor which can modulate cellular events in the musculoskeletal system in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. Our data suggest that there is an early window at between two and six weeks, in which TGFβ may favourably affect bone ingrowth in the BHC model. Exogenous growth factors such as TGFβ may be a useful adjunct in obtaining osseointegration and bone ingrowth, especially in revisions when there is compromised bone stock and residual particulate debris.

Abstract
The outcome of total joint arthroplasty is determined by biological events at the bone-implant interface. Macrophages phagocytose implant or wear debris at the interface and release proinflammatory mediators such as interleukins 1 and 6, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, and prostaglandin E2. These mediators are thought to contribute to the resorption of periprosthetic bone. Previous studies of tissues harvested from the bone-implant interface of failed orthopaedic implants demonstrated a possible role for two other cytokines, granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor and interleukin-4. The present study examined the effects of in vitro challenge with polymethylmethacrylate particles on the expression of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor by primary human monocytes/macrophages and the role of interleukin-4 in regulating this expression. The polymethylmethacrylate particles caused a dose-dependent release of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor at 48 hours. This release was accompanied by increased expression of interleukins 6 and 1beta and tumor necrosis factor-alpha. Release of the lysosomal enzyme hexosaminidase also increased in response to the particles. Interleukin-4 inhibited the expression of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor, interleukin-6, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha at 48 hours in a dose-dependent manner. The data presented in this study confirm the hypothesis that interleukin-4 downregulates particle-induced activation of macrophages, as demonstrated by the decreased release of proinflammatory mediators.
