Background: The primary objective of this study was to determine the accuracy and precision of component positioning of the ROSA Robotic System for total knee arthroplasty (TKA).

Methods: A Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis systematic review was conducted using 4 electronic databases (MEDLINE, EMBASE, Pubmed, and Cochrane Library) to identify all clinical and radiological studies reporting information about the use and results of the ROSA system. The criteria for inclusion were published research articles evaluating the accuracy of component positioning, learning curve, component alignment, complications, and functional outcomes in adults who underwent robotic-assisted TKA.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study investigates the accuracy and precision of a robotic-arm-assisted system used in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) by analyzing patient outcomes during surgery and post-operation over a three-month period.
  • - Researchers measured the differences between preoperative plans, robot-assisted measures, and postoperative radiographs, calculating accuracy as the absolute mean difference and precision as the standard deviation of these measurements.
  • - Results showed high accuracy rates for various knee angles (femoral and tibial) across different workflow comparisons, with over 90% of patients falling within a 3° margin of accuracy, indicating the effectiveness of the robotic-assisted system.

Purpose: The introduction of robotics for total knee arthroplasty (TKA) into the operating theatre is often associated with a learning curve and is potentially associated with additional complications. The purpose of this study was to determine the learning curve of robotic-assisted (RA) TKA within a multi-surgeon team.

Methods: This prospective cohort study included 83 consecutive conventional jig-based TKAs compared with 53 RA TKAs using the Robotic Surgical Assistant (ROSA) system (Zimmer Biomet, Warsaw, Indiana, USA) for knee osteoarthritis performed by three high-volume (> 100 TKA per year) orthopaedic surgeons.

Objective: The aim of this study was to examine whether serum urate-associated genetic variants are associated with early-onset gout.

Methods: Participants with gout in the Genetics of Gout in Aotearoa study with available genotyping were included (n = 1648). Early-onset gout was defined as the first presentation of gout <40 years of age.
