  1. 1. Periprosthetic Joint Infection : – prevention, diagnosis, and treatment

    Author : Hannah K. Eriksson; Stergios Lazarinis; Theofilos Karachalios; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Periprosthetic joint infection; PJI; Total hip arthroplasty; THA; Total knee arthroplasty; TKA; Total joint arthroplasty; TJA; Debridement antibiotics and implant retention; DAIR; Staphylococcus spp.; Coagulase-negative Staphylococci; Staphylococcus aureus;

    Abstract : Prosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a serious complication that may occur after total joint arthroplasty (TJA). In addition, PJI has a devastating impact on the patient's quality of life. Therefore, it is imperative to increase our knowledge of PJI prevention, diagnosis, and treatment. READ MORE

  3. 3. Maturation-dependent normal and injury-induced changes in rabbit knee articular cartilage

    Author : Xiaochun Wei; Leif Ryd; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : rabbit; development; maturation; knee joint; articular cartilage; osteochondral defect; cartilage repair; joint fluid; subchondral bone volume fraction; proteoglycan fragment; transforming growth factor-ß; biomechanics; indentation; histology; hlstomorphometry; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Cartilage injuries are common in sports, and may on the long term develop to osteoarthritis. Prosthetic joint replacement is not satisfactory for young active individuals with extended cartilage injuries in large weight-bearing joints. In these cases, a treatment is needed which reestablishes normal joint surfaces by biologic means. READ MORE
