Background: The increasing global performance of total hip arthroplasty (THA) has led to a rise in revision surgeries, primarily due to cup failure, with aseptic loosening and periprosthetic infection being common causes. Various techniques and implants, including jumbo cups (JCs), manage residual bone loss post-cup removal, facilitating enhanced surface area for improved host bone contact, and osteointegration. The purpose of the study was to determine the outcomes of acetabular revision arthroplasty using JC implants over a 20-year follow-up period by reporting overall survivorships, complications leading to re-revision, and surgical strategies in re-revision.

Monolayers of graphene oxide, assembled into densely packed sheets at an immiscible hexane/water interface, form transparent conducting films on polydimethylsiloxane membranes after reduction in hydroiodic acid (HI) vapor to reduced graphene oxide (rGO). Prestraining and relaxing the membranes introduces cracks in the rGO film. Subsequent straining opens these cracks and induces piezoresistivity, enabling their application as transparent strain gauges.

Printed circuit boards (PCBs) physically support and connect electronic components to the implementation of complex circuits. The most widespread insulating substrate that also acts as a mechanical support in PCBs is commercially known as FR4, and it is a glass-fiber-reinforced epoxy resin laminate. FR4 has exceptional dielectric, mechanical, and thermal properties.

Depending on the etiology it can be classified as primary or secondary. The primary cause of BME is unknown, while the secondary forms include traumatic, degenerative, inflammatory, vascular, infectious, metabolic, iatrogenic, and neoplastic etiologies.
