AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
In 2012, a mandate came to formally teach surgical skills to orthopaedic surgery program year one residents. We describe our reasoning and the mechanics behind our 1-month surgical skills course that we developed for our first-year orthopaedic surgery residents. We include our rationale of design, our monthly and daily format, a discussion of cost, a description and samples of our feedback surveys and results, and thoughts moving forward. We think sharing our thought process and programs will help others refine or create their own orthopaedic first-year resident educational activities.

Evolution of treatment of fragility fractures of the pelvic ring. An update.
Injury
January 2025
Professor of Orthopedics - Section Head Trauma & Orthopaedic Surgery, School of Medicine University of Leeds, UK.
The term "fragility fractures of the pelvis" refers to the disruptions of the pelvic ring that are caused by low energy injuries (such as low-level falls or falls from the standing position) in the elderly population (age over 65 years) in the absence of metastatic bone disease. These fractures are increasing in numbers, due to the aging population, particularly in the developed countries, causing significant morbidity and mortality [1]. Although some fracture patterns are stable enough requiring only conservative treatment, other fracture types can cause significant pelvic instability, demanding a more insistent management protocol.

Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Duke University School of Medicine, 311 Trent Dr, Durham, NC 27710. Email:
Objectives: Patients are often discharged to a skilled nursing facility (SNF) for postacute rehabilitation. Functional outcomes achieved in SNFs are variable, and costs are high. Especially for accountable care organizations (ACOs), home-based postacute rehabilitation offers a high-value option if outcomes are not compromised.

J Particip Med
January 2025
School of Medicine, University of South Carolina, Greenville, SC, United States.
Background: It remains unclear if there is agreement between physicians and patients on the definition of treatment success following orthopedic treatment. Clinical progress notes are generated during each health care encounter and include information on current disease symptoms, rehabilitation progress, and treatment outcomes.
Objective: This study aims to assess if physicians and patients agree on whether patient outcomes captured in clinical progress notes reflect a successful treatment outcome following orthopedic care.
Enhanced Antibiotic Release and Mechanical Strength in UHMWPE Antibiotic Blends: The Role of Submicron Gentamicin Sulfate Particles.
J Bone Joint Surg Am
January 2025
Harris Orthopaedics Laboratory, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, Massachusetts.
Background: Periprosthetic joint infections (PJIs) are a major complication of total joint replacement surgeries. This study investigated the enhancement of mechanical properties and antibiotic release in ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) through the encapsulation of submicron gentamicin sulfate (GS) particles, addressing the critical need for improved implant materials in orthopaedic surgery, particularly in managing PJIs.
Methods: The present study involved embedding submicron GS particles into UHMWPE flakes at concentrations of 2% to 10% by weight.
Bioinformatic identification of important roles of COL1A1 and TNFRSF12A in cartilage injury and osteoporosis.
J Int Soc Sports Nutr
December 2025
Jiujiang No.1 People's Hospital, Department of Orthopedics, Jiujiang City Key Laboratory of Cell Therapy, Jiujiang, China.
Objective: The aim of this study was to identify the key regulatory mechanisms of cartilage injury and osteoporosis through bioinformatics methods, and to provide a new theoretical basis and molecular targets for the diagnosis and treatment of the disease.
Methods: Microarray data for cartilage injury (GSE129147) and osteoporosis (GSE230665) were first downloaded from the GEO database. Differential expression analysis was applied to identify genes that were significantly up-or down-regulated in the cartilage injury and osteoporosis samples.
