Article Synopsis
- ) Patient-specific instrumentation (PSI) was studied to see if it improves outcomes in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) compared to conventional instruments (CIs), but long-term results had been lacking.
- ) In a 10-year follow-up of a randomized controlled trial involving patients with knee osteoarthritis, both PSI and CI groups showed similar clinical outcomes and revision rates, with no significant differences.
- ) The study concluded that PSI did not provide better clinical outcomes or prosthesis survival compared to conventional methods over the 10-year period.
Background: High physical activity (HPA) levels after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) might be related to increased wear and subsequent aseptic loosening, negatively affecting TKA survival. This systematic review studied the association between activity levels and risk of revision surgery at medium (3-10 years) and long term (>10 years) follow up in patients with TKA.
Methods: Databases (PubMed, Embase) were searched up to 12 October 2021.

Methods: At a mean follow-up of 5.1 years (0.
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common degenerative condition characterized by pain and loss of function. A pathological biochemical environment with excess inflammatory and catabolic proteins is a major contributor to OA. nSTRIDE(®) Autologous Protein Solution (APS) is a new therapy under development for the treatment of OA.
