AI Article Synopsis
- Cement fixation of the femoral stem in total hip arthroplasty was popularized in the 1960s by Sir John Charnley's design and remains significant in current medical discussions.
- Many European surgeons continue to use cemented stems, while a shift toward cementless, press-fit stems has occurred among American surgeons since the 1980s, with exceptions for patients at higher risk of periprosthetic fractures.
- The article reviews the history and research surrounding the use of cemented stems in total hip arthroplasty in both the United States and Europe over the last 70 years.
Article Abstract
Cement fixation of the femoral stem in total hip arthroplasty, first popularized in the 1960s following the success of Sir John Charnley's design, remains a prevalent topic in arthroplasty literature today. Though this technique is still widely used among European surgeons, since the 1980s many American surgeons have shifted to the use of cementless, press-fit stems except for particular cases such as those at increased risk for periprosthetic fracture. In this article we review the history and literature regarding the use of cemented stems in total hip arthroplasty in the United States and Europe over the past 70 years.

Methods: Using the 2020 ACS TQIP database, we split patients into two groups based on their primary injury.
Mobile-based in-home telerehabilitation compared with in-hospital face-to-face rehabilitation for elderly patients after total hip arthroplasty in China's level 1 trauma center: a noninferiority randomized controlled trial.
Front Surg
January 2025
Rehabilitation Center, The First Rehabilitation Hospital in Shanghai, Shanghai, China.
Background: Telerehabilitation is gaining popularity in European and American countries, but whether it can be successfully implemented in China still lacks support from clinical studies.
Objective: This trial aimed to determine if a home-based telerehabilitation method is clinically noninferior to standard in-hospital face-to-face rehabilitation for elderly patients with total hip arthroplasty (THA) in China.
Methods: This multicenter randomized controlled trial was conducted from January 2021 to June 2022 at The First Rehabilitation Hospital in Shanghai, Shanghai Jiao Tong University affiliated Sixth People's Hospital and Shanghai Tongji University affiliated Tenth People's Hospital.
Assessment of pain intensity after total hip arthroplasty using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS).
J Med Life
December 2024
Faculty of Medicine and Pharmacy, University of Oradea, Oradea, Romania.
This study aimed to assess pain intensity in patients who underwent total hip arthroplasty (THA) using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). The study was conducted between 2022 and 2023, enrolling 203 patients admitted to the Orthopedics Department. Participants self-reported their post-surgical pain 24 hours after THA by selecting a VAS rating that best represented their personal experience.

Linking American Spine Registry (ASR) and Medicare Data:an analysis of 8,755 Lumbar Fusion Cases.
Spine (Phila Pa 1976)
January 2025
Department of Neurologic Surgery, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota, USA.
Study Design: Retrospective observational study.
Objective: To evaluate whether the combined American Spine Registry and Medicare (ASR/CMS) data yields substantially different findings versus ASR data alone with regard to key parameters such as risk stratification, complication rates and readmission rates in lumbar surgery investigated through an analysis of 8,755 spondylolisthesis cases.
Summary Of Background Data: Medicare data correlation has been effective for determining revision rates for other procedures such as total hip replacement.
