Characterizing Comorbidities in Total Joint Arthroplasty in a Safety-Net Hospital Using Age-Adjusted Charlson Comorbidity Index

BACKGROUND: The joint arthroplasty population has a high number of comorbidities at the time of surgery, which increases the cost of care per episode. The goal of this study was to analyze the distribution of comorbid diseases in patients who have undergone total joint arthroplas...

Augmented Reality–Guided Individualized Total Knee Arthroplasty: Initial Clinical Implementation and Results

BACKGROUND: Contemporary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) practice has evolved from uniform mechanical alignment to individualized alignment planning in response to growing evidence that a single alignment strategy does not optimize outcomes for all patients. However, precise execut...

Artificial Intelligence Scribes in Orthopaedic Surgery: A Narrative Review

INTRODUCTION: The growing applications of artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming the healthcare landscape by reshaping diagnostics, workflow operations, and clinical decision making. Among its most promising application in surgery is the development of AI scribes designed t...

Technology Review: The Hidden Influence of AI in Orthopaedic Surgery

Artificial intelligence (AI) has rapidly integrated into multiple facets of society, specifically within the realm of orthopaedics. To understand its effects, we provide an overview of AI models, their presence in health care over time, current integrations, and regulations regar...

Studying the Natural History of the Knee Joint

By the time the orthopaedic surgeon sees a patient with symptomatic knee osteoarthritis, the disease has already progressed to an advanced stage. As a result, studying the full natural history of the knee is especially difficult. A few large longitudinal cohorts, the Osteoarthrit...

Expanding Orthopaedic Care Across the Pacific: A Global Health Model Translated Into the Pacific Islands Orthopaedic Association

Pacific Island countries face persistent and profound gaps in access to essential orthopaedic care driven by geographic dispersion, fragile infrastructure, and workforce shortages. Reliance on overseas medical referral schemes, often politically influenced and consuming substanti...

The Influence of Media Type and Posting Time on Altmetric Engagement of Orthopaedic Surgery Journals on X

INTRODUCTION: Digital promotion of orthopaedic research is increasingly associated with scholarly visibility yet the influence of specific social media posting characteristics on online attention remains unclear. The Altmetric Attention Score (AAS) is a weighted score that measur...

Impact of Preexisting Dementia on Mortality, Readmissions, and Complications After Surgical Repair of Hip Fractures: A Cohort Analysis

OBJECTIVES: As the population ages, hip fractures are projected to increase. These fractures carry high morbidity and mortality in older adults. Dementia, common among these patients, may further worsen outcomes. This study evaluates the impact of preexisting dementia on mortalit...

Prime-Coordinate Analysis: Foundations, Measure Theory, Operator Structure, and Arithmetic Geometry

Abstract This work develops a systematic framework for studying positive integers through their prime-exponent coordinates. Writing n=∏ppvp(n),n=p∏pvp(n), an integer is represented as a finitely supported vector indexed by the primes. This representation separates three distinct...
