We hypothesised that a femoral array placed into bone or an external (pinless) reference marker made no difference to leg length discrepancy in patients undergoing navigated total hip arthroplasty. Consecutive patients undergoing navigated total hip arthroplasty. 162 patients. No statistical difference between preoperative leg length discrepancy (p = 0.524). Mean intraoperative change was 3.7 mm and 4.6 mm (p = 0.262). The mean change in leg length measure post operatively was 4.2 mm and 4.1 mm (p = 0.656). No significant difference in leg length discrepancy between a pinless reference markers and a femoral array placed into the bone.

The size of comb cells is a key factor influencing the body size of honey bee workers. Comb cells and the body size of Chinese honey bee workers are smaller than those of Italian honey bee workers. To increase the size of Chinese honey bee workers, this study used newly built combs from Chinese honey bee colonies (control group) and Italian honey bee colonies (treatment group).

Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a widely performed surgical procedure that has evolved significantly due to advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics. As demand for THA grows, reliable tools are essential to enhance diagnosis, preoperative planning, surgical precision, and postoperative rehabilitation. AI applications in orthopedic surgery offer innovative solutions, including automated hip osteoarthritis (OA) diagnosis, precise implant positioning, and personalized risk stratification, thereby improving patient outcomes.

Background: Total hip arthroplasty (THA) effectively enhances hip function and alleviates pain in patients who have osteoarthritis, improving their quality of life. The Forgotten Joint Score-12 (FJS-12), a patient-reported outcome measure, has recently gained attention as a method for assessing joint awareness during daily activities following THA; however, the association between muscle strength, specifically quadriceps muscle strength, and the FJS-12 has not been fully investigated.
Methods: This cross-sectional study involved 624 patients who underwent THA at a single center in Japan.
Increasing thigh extension with haptic feedback affects leg coordination in young and older adult walkers.

Interlimb coordination can be used as a metric to study the response of the neuromuscular system to mechanical perturbations and behavioral information. Behavioral information providing haptic feedback on thigh angle has been shown to increase stride length and consequently walking speed, but the effect of such feedback on limb coordination has not been determined. The current work investigates the effects of this feedback on lower-limb coordination and examines if such effects are dependent on the age of the walker.
