TL;DR: These guidelines include evidence-based and opinion-based recommendations for the diagnosis and management of patients with PJI treated with debridement and retention of the prosthesis, resection arthroplasty with or without subsequent staged reimplantation.
Abstract: These guidelines are intended for use by infectious disease specialists, orthopedists, and other healthcare professionals who care for patients with prosthetic joint infection (PJI). They include evidence-based and opinion-based recommendations for the diagnosis and management of patients with PJI treated with debridement and retention of the prosthesis, resection arthroplasty with or without subsequent staged reimplantation, 1-stage reimplantation, and amputation.

TL;DR: Ooarthritis is viewed as an attempt to contain a mechanical problem in the joint and as failed repair of damage caused by excessive mechanical stress on the joint, and it is unlikely that a drug that inhibits a specific enzyme or cytokine in the pathways of cartilage breakdown, or further stimulates the already increased synthesis ofcartilage matrix molecules will solve the problem of OA.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report the outcome of 143 knees with anteromedial osteoarthritis and normal anterior cruciate ligaments treated by unicompartmental arthroplasty using fully congruous mobile polyethylene bearings.
Abstract: Retrieval studies have shown that the use of fully congruent meniscal bearings reduces wear in knee replacements. We report the outcome of 143 knees with anteromedial osteoarthritis and normal anterior cruciate ligaments treated by unicompartmental arthroplasty using fully congruous mobile polyethylene bearings. At review, 34 knees were in patients who had died and 109 were in those who were still living. The mean elapsed time since operation was 7.6 years (maximum 13.8). We established the status of all but one knee. There had been five revision operations giving a cumulative prosthetic survival rate at ten years (33 knees at risk) of 98% (95% CI 93% to 100%). Considering the knee lost to follow-up as a failure, the 'worst-case' survival rate was 97%. No failures were due to polyethylene wear or aseptic loosening of the tibial component. One bearing which dislocated at four years was reduced by closed manipulation. The ten-year survival rate is the best of those reported for unicompartmental arthroplasty and not significantly different from the best rates for total knee replacement.

TL;DR: The shoulder questionnaire provides a measure of outcome for shoulder operations which is short, practical, reliable, valid and sensitive to clinically important changes.
Abstract: We developed a 12-item questionnaire for completion by patients having shoulder operations other than stabilisation. A prospective study of 111 patients was undertaken before operation and at follow-up six months later. Each patient completed the new questionnaire and the SF36 form. Some filled in the Stanford Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ). An orthopaedic surgeon assessed the Constant shoulder score. The single score derived from the questionnaire had a high internal consistency. Reproducibility, examined by test-retest reliability, was found to be satisfactory. The validity of the questionnaire was established by obtaining significant correlations in the expected direction with the Constant score and the relevant scales of the SF36 and the HAQ. Sensitivity to change was assessed by analysing the differences between the preoperative scores and those at follow-up. Changes in scores were compared with the patients' responses to postoperative questions about their condition. The standardised effect size for the new questionnaire compared favourably with that for the SF36 and the HAQ. The new questionnaire was the most efficient in distinguishing patients who said that their shoulder was much better from all other patients. The shoulder questionnaire provides a measure of outcome for shoulder operations which is short, practical, reliable, valid and sensitive to clinically important changes.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the Illumina Immunochip microarray to perform a case-control association study involving 10,619 individuals with ankylosing spondylitis (cases) and 15,145 controls.
Abstract: Ankylosing spondylitis is a common, highly heritable inflammatory arthritis affecting primarily the spine and pelvis. In addition to HLA-B*27 alleles, 12 loci have previously been identified that are associated with ankylosing spondylitis in populations of European ancestry, and 2 associated loci have been identified in Asians. In this study, we used the Illumina Immunochip microarray to perform a case-control association study involving 10,619 individuals with ankylosing spondylitis (cases) and 15,145 controls. We identified 13 new risk loci and 12 additional ankylosing spondylitis-associated haplotypes at 11 loci. Two ankylosing spondylitis-associated regions have now been identified encoding four aminopeptidases that are involved in peptide processing before major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I presentation. Protective variants at two of these loci are associated both with reduced aminopeptidase function and with MHC class I cell surface expression.
