Aims: We estimated the prevalence of people living with at least one hip, knee, or shoulder arthroplasty in the Netherlands.

Methods: We included the first hip (n = 416,333), knee (n = 314,569), or shoulder (n = 23,751) arthroplasty of each patient aged ≥ 40 years between 2007 and 2022 (hip/knee) or 2014 and 2022 (shoulder) from the Dutch Arthroplasty Register (LROI). Data on the size of the Dutch population were obtained from Statistics Netherlands. Annual incidences and deaths from hip and knee arthroplasty since 2010, and shoulder arthroplasty since 2015, were observed from the LROI. Annual incidences and deaths before those years were estimated using Poisson regression analyses and parametric survival models based on a Gompertz distribution. Non-parametric percentile bootstrapping with resampling was used to estimate 95% CIs.

Results: Annual incidences per 100,000 Dutch inhabitants aged ≥ 40 years increased for hip arthroplasties from 221 (95% CI 214 to 229) in 1990 to 360 in 2022, for knee arthroplasties from 181 (95% CI 174 to 188) to 272, and for shoulder arthroplasties from 11 (95% CI 8.0 to 16) to 34. In 2022, 791,000 (95% CI 787,000 to 794,000) people in the Netherlands were living with at least one joint replacement, representing 8.4% (95% CI 8.4 to 8.5) of the Dutch population aged ≥ 40 years. For hip, knee, and shoulder arthroplasties, these were 436,000 (95% CI 433,000 to 438,000), 383,000 (95% CI 380,000 to 386,000), and 34,000 (95% CI 33,000 to 36,000) people, corresponding to 4.7% (95% CI 4.6 to 4.7), 4.1% (95% CI 4.1 to 4.1), and 0.4% (95% CI 0.3 to 0.4) of the Dutch population, respectively. The most common age group living with at least one joint replacement was the ≥ 80-year age group, representing 38% (95% CI 37 to 38) of the Dutch population aged ≥ 80 years.

Conclusion: Approximately 800,000 people in the Netherlands were living with at least one hip, knee, or shoulder replacement in 2022, representing one in 12 Dutch inhabitants aged ≥ 40 years.

Rate of torque development (RTD) measures how rapidly one can generate torque and is crucial for balance and athletic performance. Fast RTD depends on the rapid recruitment of high threshold motor units (MUs). Cutaneous electrical stimulation has been shown to alter MU excitability, favoring high threshold MUs via reduced recruitment thresholds.

Objective: To determine whether hip flexion (HF), extension (HE), abduction (HA), knee flexion (KF) and extension (KE), and ankle plantarflexion (APF) and dorsiflexion (ADF) Maximum Voluntary Contraction (MVC) differentiates between non-fall and fall history in persons with MS (PwMS) after accounting for age, gender, fatigue, disability, and disease duration.

Design: Secondary analysis of a cross-sectional study.

Setting: Community-based comprehensive MS Center PARTICIPANTS: 172 persons with MS who completed a one-time visit INTERVENTIONS: Not applicable MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Lower limb (LL) MVC was measured for each muscle group as isometric peak torque (Newton-meter: Nm) of both limbs (Strongest: S; Weakest: W) using a Biodex Dynamometer and normalized by body weight (Nm/kg).

The use of perioperative cephalosporin prophylaxis in patients who have a pre-existing penicillin allergy.

Background: Studies have shown an association between a reported penicillin allergy and an increased risk of surgical site infection. The risk is due to avoidance of cephalosporins and to the use of alternative classes of antibiotics in surgical prophylaxis. The aim of this study was to examine the safety of using cephalosporins in patients with a penicillin allergy label.

Presurgical anxiety and acute postsurgical pain predict worse chronic pain profiles after total knee/hip arthroplasty.

Life and Health Sciences Research Institute (ICVS), School of Medicine, University of Minho, Campus de Gualtar, Braga, 4710-057, Portugal.

Introduction: Total joint arthroplasties generally achieve good outcomes, but chronic pain and disability are a significant burden after these interventions. Acknowledging relevant risk factors can inform preventive strategies. This study aimed to identify chronic pain profiles 6 months after arthroplasty using the ICD-11 (International Classification of Diseases) classification and to find pre and postsurgical predictors of these profiles.
