In this single-surgeon series, both resurfaced hips in 1 woman and a total hip arthroplasty in another were revised for symptomatic pseudotumor (3 of 588 hips; 0.51% overall incidence; 2.2% in women). All 3 hips had 50-mm acetabular components. There was no difference in mean lateral opening angle (mean 38.7° vs 42.8° for the others) but these 3 hips all had increased acetabular anteversion (mean 27.1° vs 16.4° for the others; P<.05). Increased combined anteversion is a mechanical common denominator in pseudotumor formation. Female sex and small component size are variables associated with congenital dysplasia, which typically has a small, shallow socket and high combined anteversion. Thus, native anatomy may predispose to the joint mechanics that lead to pseudotumor formation, and not sex or size. The aggregate results indicate that the determination of satisfactory component position includes (1) assessment of the acetabular component lateral opening, (2) acetabular component version, and (3) femoral version. A mechanical problem suggests a mechanical solution. To insure capture of the femoral head by the socket and the intended bearing tribology, acetabular lateral opening angles should be <50°, assuming a femoral neck-shaft angle of 130° to 135°. Combined anteversion should not exceed 40°. In resurfacing of dysplastic cases where the neck-shaft angle exceeds 140°, the acetabular lateral opening angle needs to be correspondingly lower to achieve equivalent head capture and bearing contact.

Nanoclusters are nanometer-sized molecular compounds characterized by significant metal-metal bonding and low average oxidation states, and they exhibit unique properties distinct from those of small metal complexes or nanoparticles. Unlike noble metals stable in metallic forms, the synthesis of nanometer-sized iron clusters has been precluded by the relatively weak iron-iron bonds and the high reactivity of low oxidation state iron, despite the extensive history of molecular iron compounds. Here, we report the synthesis and characterization of a cationic 55-atom iron cluster with a 1.

The field of platinum chemistry is ubiquitous in the research of anticancer drugs and new OLED materials. Within the vast library of existing compounds, the majority of work focuses on complexes in the +2 and +4 oxidation states, with comparatively few examples of Pt complexes reported without bridging ligands. Pt complexes with metal-metal bonding can be made by mild oxidation of Pt complexes having bis(phenylpyridine) ligands.

Thioxanthone (TX) molecules and their derivatives are well-known photoactive compounds. Yet, there exist only a handful of luminescent systems combining TX with transition metals. Recently, we reported a TX-based PSP pincer ligand () that appears as a promising platform for filling this niche.

Article Synopsis
- Multiply-bonded main group compounds from groups 13-15, like dialumenes, are gaining attention for their unique metal-metal bonding and potential applications in catalysis and small molecule activation.
- The study focuses on the simplest dialumene, AlH, analyzing its electronic structure and bond dissociation energy using advanced quantum chemistry methods to set a reference for other computational techniques.
- The results show that while single-reference coupled cluster theory can effectively capture the diradical character of dialumene, density functional methods struggle with accuracy, though some approaches like non-hybrid TPSS yield better results than high-percentage hybrids.
