Squeaking: Current knowledge and how to avoid it.

Curr Rev Musculoskelet Med

Specialist Orthopaedic Group, Mater Clinic Suite 1.08, 3-9 Gillies St, North Sydney, New South Wales, 2060, Australia,

Published: December 2013

This review aims to update the reader with current thinking and research related to the well documented phenomenon of squeaking hip arthroplasties. The etiology of squeaking is multifactorial and still not well understood. We aim to share our own experience and views on the combination of factors we believe increases the likelihood of squeaking, along with mechanisms by which the sound may be generated. Recent published findings from other groups are summarized along with an appropriate management algorithm we recommend for this cohort of patients.

Large-diameter heads (LDHs) in total hip arthroplasty (THA) enhance range of motion but require thinner liners. Monoblock acetabular components with ceramic liners could reduce liner fracture risks during modular acetabular component assembly. This study aims to confirm the safety and clinical performance of the monoblock Maxera Cup in THA.

Purpose: This study aimed to assess the long-term results of THA patients who received a cementless short stem regarding clinical outcomes, bone changes, complications, and incidence of femoral revision.

Methods: A retrospective evaluation of the first 100 THA employing a type 2B cementless stem (Mini hip stem, Corin, Cirencester, United Kingdom) by the same surgeon at one institution. We only include patients with 18 years or more, and with a minimum follow up of 8 years.

Background: To date, the occurrence of unusual squeaking noises during shoulder movements following shoulder arthroscopic surgeries have been minimally reported.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to report the incidence, natural history, possible risk factors and functional outcomes of patients who reported to have squeaking noises following shoulder arthroscopic procedures.

Methods: In this 2-year case-control study, all patients who underwent arthroscopic shoulder in a single institution were included.

Variation in the mutual responsiveness of social partners to each other can be reflected in behavioral suites that covary with neural activity in ways that track the salience or valence of interactions. Juvenile social isolation alters social behavior and neural activity during social interaction, but whether and how it alters the covariation between behavior and neural activity has not been as well explored. To address this issue, four classes of experimental subjects: isolated males, socially housed males, isolated females, and socially housed females, were paired with an opposite-sex social partner that had been socially housed.
