Total Hip Arthroplasty Outcomes before or after Renal Transplant: A Retrospective Large Cohort Analysis.

Background: While it is known that patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) are at an increased risk of complications following total hip arthroplasty (THA), there is a gap in the literature in comparing patients with ESRD to patients who undergo renal transplant (RT) before or after THA. This study is to address this gap by analyzing outcomes of THA in ESRD patients, RT patients, and RT candidates.

Methods: Using the PearlDiver Mariner database, ESRD patients, RT patients, and RT candidates undergoing primary THA were identified and compared.

Emergency Department Visits in the Year Prior to Total Shoulder Arthroplasty as a Risk Factor for Postoperative Emergency Department Visits.

: Recent research has found a high rate of emergency department (ED) use after lower extremity arthroplasty; one study found a risk factor for ED presentation after lower extremity arthroplasty was presentation to the ED in the year prior to surgery. It is not known whether a similar association exists for total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA). : The goal of this study was to investigate the relationship between preoperative ED visits and postoperative ED visits after anatomic TSA.

A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Injury in Crossfit.

The present study aims to investigate the incidence and pattern of injury in Crossfit. This study used a database search of Crossfit AND Injury for systematic review and metaanalysis. Crossfit seems to be an effective exercise method to decrease weight and BMI while improving function.
