Background: Is "eyeballing" enough to determine cup malposition on anteroposterior (AP) pelvis radiographs before revision total hip arthroplasty (rTHA) for instability? We aimed to determine the following: (1) the reliability of eyeballing cup inclination/anteversion on AP pelvis radiographs vs geometrical measurements and (2) whether visual assessments are affected by surgeon experience.
Materials And Methods: Fifteen de-identified standing AP pelvis radiographs obtained before rTHA for instability were evaluated by one orthopedic surgeon who measured inclination/anteversion of the cups (n=15) using a new simplified method based on basic geometry. Subsequently, 4 orthopedic surgeons and 4 fellows (postgraduate year 6) assessed inclination/anteversion by eyeballing.
Female Pelvic Floor Disorders in Northern India: Uncommon or Underreported?
Cureus
November 2024
Social and Preventive Medicine, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Rishikesh, Rishikesh, IND.
Context: Pelvic floor disorders (PFD) have been on the rise, with an overall prevalence of 11%-35.5% globally. They develop due to various factors like increasing number of deliveries and increasing age, leading to progressive weakening of the soft tissues and pelvic support system.

Purpose: While weight-bearing physical activity (PA) benefits bone health, it remains unclear whether PA can counteract hormone-driven menopausal bone deterioration. This secondary analysis of a population-based prospective follow-up study examined changes in bone health indicators around menopause and evaluated whether accelerometer-measured habitual skeletal loading is associated with these changes.
Methods: A total of 189 initially perimenopausal women without estrogen therapy (mean age 52 [SD 2] years) were followed until they became postmenopausal (mean follow-up time 15 [9] months).
Measurement of tissue optical properties in the 400 to 700 nm range to assess light penetration depths for laser treatment of upper tract urothelial carcinomas.

December 2024
Osaka University, Graduate School of Engineering, Osaka, Japan.
Significance: For therapeutic approaches for upper tract urothelial carcinomas, the absorption and reduced scattering coefficients of these tissues are essential parameters to quantitatively evaluate the distribution of light treatment effects.
Aim: The and spectra of the human ureter, fatty tissue, ureteral and renal pelvic carcinomas, and porcine ureter and fatty tissue are measured over 400 to 700 nm to evaluate projected light penetration depths .
Approach: The optical properties were determined with a double integrating sphere optical system and inverse Monte Carlo methods.
Surgical Site Infections in Simultaneous Colorectal and Liver Resections for Metastatic Colorectal Adenocarcinoma.
Ann Surg Oncol
February 2025
Department of Surgery, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, New York, NY, USA.
Background: Surgical site infections (SSIs) are a major driver of morbidity after combined liver and colorectal surgery for metastatic colorectal cancer. Available literature is inadequate to characterize risk factors and benchmarks for quality improvement.
Methods: Consecutive cases of simultaneous liver and colorectal surgery for colorectal adenocarcinoma from November 2013 through September 2022 were reviewed for SSIs per National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) and National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN) criteria.
