Learning Curve Analysis of Robotic-Assisted Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Retrospective Study
Robotic-assisted total hip arthroplasty (RA-THA) may improve component positioning but adds workflow demands during adoption. We evaluated the learning curve for total operative and robotic workflow time during the initial implementation of a CT-based robotic system.

What causes knee pain: How doctors make a diagnosis
Knee pain can affect every step you take. If you’re middle-aged or older, you might blame osteoarthritis for your achy knees. You may be right. But knee pain can stem from problems with several structures in and around the joint.

Registry-based model predicts hip fracture risk better than current screening
A machine-learning tool built from Swedish national health registry data can predict hip fracture risk with high accuracy without an in-person assessment and identifies far more at-risk individuals than current clinical screening practices, according to a study published Aug. 27 in the journal PLOS Medicine by Kristian Axelsson and Mattias Lorentzon of the University of Gothenburg, Sweden, and colleagues.
