No Difference in Survivorship Following Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty Using Ultraporous Acetabular Cups and Cross-Linked Polyethylene With and Without Acetabular Screws in a Large United States Health Care System.

Background: Modern cementless acetabular cups for total hip arthroplasty (THA) typically have screw options. Historically, screws were thought to improve stability, but came at the cost of pathways for osteolysis.

Comparison of Different Animal Models in Hindlimb Functional Recovery after Acute Limb Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury.

Acute limb ischemia (ALI) is a sudden lack of blood flow to a limb, primarily caused by arterial embolism and thrombosis. Various experimental animal models, including non-invasive and invasive methods, have been developed and successfully used to induce limb ischemia-reperfusion injuries (L-IRI). However, there is no consensus on the methodologies used in animal models for L-IRI, particularly regarding the assessment of functional recovery.
