TL;DR: Oral antibiotic therapy was noninferior to intravenous antibiotic therapy when used during the first 6 weeks for complex orthopedic infection, as assessed by treatment failure at 1 year after randomization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Patient relevant outcomes of unicompartmental versus total knee replacement: systematic review and meta-analysis
Hannah A Wilson,Rob Middleton,Simon G F Abram,Stephanie Smith,Abtin Alvand,William Jackson,N. Bottomley,Sally Hopewell,Andrew Price +8 more
TL;DR: TKA and UKA are both viable options for the treatment of isolated unicompartmental osteoarthritis by directly comparing the two treatments, and this study demonstrates better results for UKA in several outcome domains.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diagnosis of Periprosthetic Joint Infection: The Potential of Next-Generation Sequencing.
Majd Tarabichi,Noam Shohat,Noam Shohat,Karan Goswami,Abtin Alvand,Randi Silibovsky,Katherine A. Belden,Javad Parvizi +7 more
TL;DR: Next-generation sequencing may be a useful adjunct in identification of the causative organism(s) in culture-negative periprosthetic joint infection, and the findings suggest that some cases of monomicrobial perip frosted joint infection may have additional organisms that escape detection when culture is used.
Journal ArticleDOI
Learning and retaining simulated arthroscopic meniscal repair skills
William Jackson,Tanvir Khan,Abtin Alvand,S Al-Ali,Harinderjit Gill,Andrew Price,Jonathan Rees +6 more
TL;DR: This study objectively demonstrate the learning curve for a complex arthroscopic task (meniscal repair) by means of motion analysis and to determine the impact of task repetition on the retention of this skill.
Innate arthroscopic skills in medical students and variation in learning curves
TL;DR: Investigation of the innate arthroscopic skills and learning curve patterns of medical students found that students who achieved task competence had better objective technical dexterity and thus better innate ar Throscopic ability.
