Motivation: Bayesian phylogeographic analyses are pivotal in reconstructing the spatio-temporal dispersal histories of pathogens. However, interpreting the complex outcomes of phylogeographic reconstructions requires sophisticated visualization tools.
Results: To meet this challenge, we developed spread.
Background: This retrospective case series aimed to assess the clinical and radiographic outcomes of revision total hip arthroplasty with trabecular metal (TM) augments associated with cementless TM acetabular components for the management of Paprosky type IIIA and IIIB defects without pelvic discontinuity.
Methods: There were 83 hips (82 patients) enrolled. There were 53 patients who completed the clinical and radiological follow-up (64% of the total) who had a mean follow-up of 11 years (range, 7 to 16.
: In recent years, there has been considerable interest in prosthetic alignment techniques for total knee arthroplasty (TKA), particularly in the so-called kinematic alignment, which aims to restore the knee's native alignment. However, implementing this technique requires specialized instruments and procedural steps that can be laborious. This study introduces the bisector of the trochlear groove as a reliable landmark for performing the distal femoral cut while maintaining parallelism with the native femoral joint line.

- Phylogeographic analyses use location data from molecular sequences to trace how pathogens spread over time and space.
- Visualization software is essential for interpreting complex estimation results, and spread.gl is a user-friendly application that enables detailed visual representations of pathogen dispersal.
- Spread.gl combines various data layers, including geographic maps and environmental factors, allowing users to examine the influence of these factors on pathogen spread, highlighted with examples like the animation of SARS-CoV-2 genomic sequences.
Background: The increasing amount of revision surgeries in total hip arthroplasty (THA) represents a burden for orthopedic surgeons given the complexity and unpredictability of this kind of surgery. The aim of the current study was to develop a new radiographic classification of acetabular bone defects stratify the severity of the lesion and to suggest the surgical strategy to address it.
Methods: Radiographs of 151 consecutive patients who underwent acetabular revision surgery in our institution were collected to develop a new classification that groups the acetabular bone defects in three zones (A, B and C).
