Objective: To determine the incidence of dislocation after primary total hip arthroplasty using a posterior approach with repair of capsule and transosseous external rotators.
Material And Method: Historical cohort study between January 2009 and December 2015 of all the cases of dislocation of primary total hip arthroplasty operated using a posterior approach with repair of capsule and transosseous external rotators. Demographic and clinical data concerning the patient, surgery and dislocation were collected and analyzed. A descriptive analysis and a study of survival and risk function were performed by Kaplan Meier's method considering the appearance of a hip dislocation as the final event.
Results: The incidence of dislocation in our study was 1.2% (23 patients). In our study, the highest probability of dislocation occurred in the first 120 days. Forty-three point 5percent of the dislocated patients needed revision surgery.
Conclusions: Capsular repair and transosseous reattachment of the external rotators can help to reduce the incidence of dislocation in patients undergoing primary total hip arthroplasty through a posterior approach.

Introduction: Peripheral intravenous cannulation (PIVC) is a common and complex procedure with low first-attempt success rates, causing patient suffering and increased healthcare costs. Quiet Eye (QE) training, a gaze-focused approach, has shown promise in improving procedural PIVC skills. We will examine the effectiveness of traditional technical training (TT) and QE training (QET) on student nurse PIVC performance.

Many alpine ecosystems are undergoing vegetation degradation because of global changes, which are affecting ecosystem functioning and biodiversity. The ecological consequences of alpine pioneer community degradation have been less studied than glacial retreat or meadow degradation in alpine ecosystems. We document the comprehensive responses of microbial community characteristics to degradation processes using field-based sampling, conduct soil microcosm experiments to simulate the effects of global change on microorganisms, and explore their relationships to ecosystem functioning across stages of alpine pioneer community degradation.

Introduction: Knee alignment significantly impacts the outcome of total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Understanding patient perceptions of their knee alignment in relation to objective measurements is essential to ensure optimal surgical outcomes and to meet patients' expectations. This study reports patients' perception of pre- and postoperative knee alignment in relation to radiographic alignment measurements.

Purpose: To establish a prognostic model to estimate progression-free survival (PFS) probability in bladder cancer (BCa) patients undergoing partial cystectomy.
Material And Methods: Consecutive patients who underwent partial cystectomy between August 2012 and April 2021 were enrolled. The primary endpoint was PFS during the follow-up.

Objective: One of the most severe endocrine side effects of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) is hypophysitis leading to adrenal insufficiency. Recovery is rare, although it has been reported after high-dose glucocorticoid treatment. This is the first randomised study to evaluate whether hormonal recovery differs in patients treated with high-dose glucocorticoids versus glucocorticoid replacement therapy.
