Background: Fresh osteochondral allograft (OCA) transplantation is an established treatment option for patients with chondral or osteochondral lesions of the knee. Predictably positive outcomes are seen in situations of focal or isolated cartilage defects. However, OCA transplantation may also be performed in more complex joint salvage situations in young patients.

Background: Traditionally, total joint arthroplasty has been performed as an inpatient procedure, sometimes requiring a hospital stay of a few days. However, outpatient total joints have gained popularity in recent years. The purpose of this study is to compare patient outcomes following an outpatient total knee arthroplasty (TKA) or a total hip arthroplasty (THA) in a hospital setting versus an ambulatory surgical center.

Background: Since 2021, COVID-19 has had a substantial impact on global health and continues to contribute to serious health outcomes. In Taiwan, most research has focused on hospitalized patients or mortality cases, leaving important gaps in understanding the broader effects of the disease and identifying individuals at high risk. This study aims to investigate the risk factors for disease progression through a nationwide population-based cohort study on COVID-19 in Taiwan.

: For many years, advancements in hand joint replacement (JR) were relatively minor compared to those for large joints. However, the caution previously exercised due to high complication rates is gradually being replaced by the expanding use of JR therapies for small joints in the hand. Despite this progress, there is a lack of comprehensive data on the outcomes of hand JR and on the optimal infrastructure required to meet the growing demand for these therapies.

Purpose Of Review: Artificial intelligence (AI) offers a new frontier for aiding in the management of both acute and chronic pain, which may potentially transform opioid prescribing practices and addiction prevention strategies. In this review paper, not only do we discuss some of the current literature around predicting various opioid-related outcomes, but we also briefly point out the next steps to improve trustworthiness of these AI models prior to real-time use in clinical workflow.
Recent Findings: Machine learning-based predictive models for identifying risk for persistent postoperative opioid use have been reported for spine surgery, knee arthroplasty, hip arthroplasty, arthroscopic joint surgery, outpatient surgery, and mixed surgical populations.
