Abstract:
AbstractOrthopaedic and dental implant treatments have allowed to enhance the quality of life of millions of patients. Total hip/knee arthroplasty is a surgical replacement of the hip/knee joint with an artificial prosthesis. The aim of joint replacement surgery is to relieve pain improve function, often for sufferers of osteoarthritis, which affects around a third of people aged over fifty. Nowadays, total hip and knee replacement (THR) surgeries are considered routine procedures with generally excellent outcomes. Given the increasing life expectancy of the world population, however, many patients will require revision or removal of the artificial joint during their lifetime. The most common cause of failure of hip and knee replacements is mechanical instability secondary to wear of the articulating components. Thus, tribological and biomechanical aspects of joint arthroplasty are of specific interest in addressing the needs of younger, more active patients. The most significant improvements in the longevity of artificial joints have been achieved through the introduction of more wear resistant bearing surfaces. These innovations, however, brought about new tribocorrosion phenomena, such as fretting corrosion at the modular junctions of hip implants. Stiffness mismatch between the prosthesis components, non-physiological stress transfer and uneven implant-bone stress distribution are all involved in premature failure of hip arthroplasty. The development of more durable hip and knee prostheses requires a comprehensive understanding of biomechanics and tribocorrosion of implant materials. Some of these insights can also be applied to the design and development of dental implants.

Abstract:
With an aging population, chronic osteoarthritic hip joint pain is becoming a major issue. Most patients with hip pain can control their pain with conservative measures but with a gradual reduction in their quality of life. When gradually reduced ambulation and pain become recalcitrant, total hip arthroplasty is the next step. For most patients, this is a good way to improve pain control and to recover some quality of life, but for a few this aggressive surgical procedure is not possible. Sometimes co-morbidities make total hip arthroplasties undesirable. At other times, the age of the patients recommends to wait for a while. In these cases, other options have to be explored. Percutaneous partial hip joint sensory denervation has become a notable option as it can provide acceptable rates of pain relief with minimal surgical aggressiveness. There are three modalities to perform it: thermal, cooled and pulsed radiofrequency.

This chapter discusses the goals, procedure, and potential outcomes of total hip arthroplasty (THA). Patients may be candidates for a THA when they have severe arthritis of their hip(s) (degeneration of cartilage covering the ends of the bones creating the hip joint). Arthritic hip pain is often progressive and gets worse as the cartilage continues to deteriorate. Typically, at the time a patient seeks hip arthroplasty, his or her quality of life has become very compromised. In a total hip arthroplasty, damaged bone and cartilage of the hip joint are removed and replaced with prosthetic components. THA can be performed under neuraxial anesthesia (spinal or epidural) or general anesthesia or a combination of both.

Abstract:
Chapter 107 discusses the hip and its component tissues, including the bones, labrum, synovial tissues, muscles, and tendons, and covers the MRI appearances of many of the most common pathologies that occur in and around the hip joint. The hip is a ball-and-socket joint consisting of the femoral head and the cup-shaped acetabulum. Because of its shape, the hip allows multi-axial movements, including flexion/extension, abduction/adduction, and internal/external rotation. A number of supporting structures, including the acetabular labrum and joint capsule, surrounding muscles and tendons, and bursae, help stabilize the hip and allow for a smooth range of motion. Injuries to any of these structures can result in hip pain and loss of function. MRI has become the test of choice to assess hip internal derangement because of its superior assessment of soft tissues and bone marrow and its contrast resolution, which improves conspicuity of pathologic conditions.

This chapter discusses osteoarthritis (OA), including the features seen in OA and the wider clinical features of OA, outlining the most commonly affected joints and their management. The potential causes of OA are summarized with visual representations of the joints involved and how they are affected. Investigations required to diagnosis OA and exclude other forms of joint pain are described. The chapter then provides more specific information for hip and knee; hand, wrist, foot, and ankle; and neck and spine, including their assessment and treatment options (pharmacological and non-pharmacological). This is followed by some of the more holistic aspects to care and management plans including when to refer those who present with OA to a specialist team.

Abstract:
Septic arthritis (or infective arthritis) is the most serious cause of one or more hot swollen joints. A causative organism can be identified in about 80% of cases, with Staphylococcus aureus the most common, followed by Streptococcus and gram-negative organisms. The key diagnostic investigation is microscopy and culture of aspirated joint fluid. Management is with drainage of bacteria, pus, and debris from the joint, along with antibiotics. Consensus is that these should be given intravenously for up to two weeks, or until clinical signs improve, followed by oral antibiotics for four weeks. Prosthetic joint infection is a particular challenge requiring specialist care. Arthralgia and/or arthritis are common occurrences with many viral infections, particularly parvovirus, hepatitis B and C, rubella, HIV, alpha (including chikungunya) and dengue viruses. Joint manifestations are usually sudden in onset, correlate with the onset of clinical illness, and generally self-limiting, but can persist following infection.

Abstract:
Osteoarthritis (OA), the commonest arthropathy, targets specific joints e.g. the knees, hips, interphalangeal joints, and first carpometacarpal joints. Most patients develop symptoms in their middle or older age. Usage-related (’mechanical’) joint pain, short-lived morning stiffness, and locomotor restriction are the common presenting symptoms. Pain at extremes of movement and joint line tenderness may be present in early disease. Crepitus, bony enlargement, and reduced range of movement suggest more severe OA. Advanced OA is characterized by rest pain, night pain, muscle wasting, and deformity. Notably, symptoms and signs of inflammation are absent or only modest, although mild-moderate effusions are not uncommon at the knee. OA may be diagnosed on clinical grounds alone in the at-risk age group, in the presence of typical symptoms and signs. Radiographic changes of OA are commonly asymptomatic. In general there is poor correlation between symptoms, signs, radiographic changes, and disability in OA, and due care should be used to differentiate the ’disease OA’ from the ’illness OA’. More inflammatory symptoms and signs suggest coexistence of calcium crystal deposition. Evaluation of people with OA should include targeted assessment for treatable comorbidities such as depression and obesity that compound disability from OA.

Abstract:
The musculoskeletal examination, as for other systems, is best done in correlation with the medical history. You may be asked to examine the whole system, the spine, or a single joint. A structured approach is required, both for a screening examination and individual joint examination. Practise a systematic approach for presenting your findings, even if the examination is carried out in a different sequence from the one outlined here. Key competence skills required in the musculoskeletal examination are given in table 12.1. Musculoskeletal cases commonly encountered in the MRCPCH Clinical Exam are listed in table 12.2. Stepwise examination of the musculoskeletal examination is performed as follows: • visual survey (head to toe inspection) • screening examination of the musculoskeletal system: gait, arms, legs, spine (pGALS) • Examination of individual joints (hands and wrists, elbows, shoulders, head and neck, hips, knee, foot and ankle, spine):… • look • feel • move • measurements • assessment of function • joint-specific tests…. These steps are repeated in every system to reiterate their importance and to help you recollect the initial approach of any clinical exam. Also refer to chapter 4. • On entering the examination room, demonstrate strict adherence to infection control measures by washing your hands or by using alcohol rub. • Introduce yourself both to the parents and the child. • Talk slowly and clearly with a smile on your face. • Establish rapport with the child and parents. • Expose adequately while ensuring their privacy. Ideally, the child should be undressed to their underwear. If possible, watch the child undress. • Ask three important questions:… • Do you have pain anywhere? • Can you dress completely without difficulty? • Can you walk up and down the stairs without difficulty?... • Positioning: early in the examination, it is preferable to examine a younger child on their parent’s lap rather than on a couch. Useful information can be obtained by watching the child walk and play. Depending on the joint, examine an older child either in the sitting or lying position.

Abstract:
This chapter begins with the cultural impact of the June War and its coda, Gamal Abdel Nasser's death in 1970. As the chapter shows, the defeat fundamentally altered Arab conceptions of political theatre's role. A well-developed high culture was no longer considered enough to guarantee the world's respect. Psychological interiority was irrelevant: what mattered was not deserving agentive power but seizing it. Disillusioned with their regimes, dramatists stopped addressing subtly allegorical plays to the government; instead, they appealed directly to audiences, trying to rouse them to participate in political life. Analyzing two early 1970s Hamlet adaptations from Egypt and Syria, the chapter demonstrates how the 1970s Hamlet became a Che Guevara in doublet and hose. Guilt and sadness over his father's death only sharpened his anger; his fierce pursuit of justice left no room for introspection or doubt.

Abstract:
Hip-replacement joints are designed to meet shape specifications for each individual patient. Because the height and shape of bones of every patient are different than the other, the shapes of hip-replacement joints need to be customized for each individual patient. Customizing for each individual patient will increase the overall cost of hip-replacement joint production and eventually the cost of whole surgery process. Mass-production is necessary to reduce the production cost for such products. A technique of mass-customization can address to both of these issues providing customization of i

Abstract:
Morphological deviations of the acetabulum and femoral head may lead to hip dysplasia or femoro-acetabular impingement. Hip dysplasia and femoro-acetabular impingement (FAI), a pathological contact of the femoral neck with the acetabular rim during motion, have been proposed as potential factors in the development of hip osteoarthritis. The effects of these two kinds of disorders on the mechanical environment of the hip joint are analyzed and compared. One of the morphological measures of the acetabulum is the angle of Wiberg (CE angle), which defines dysplastic, normal or over-covered joints.

Abstract:
Jumping is a natural exertion that occurs during a variety of human activities including playing sports, working, skateboarding, dancing, escaping from hazardous events, rescue activities, and many others. During jumping, the ankles in particular are expected to support the entire body weight of the jumper and that may lead to ankle injuries. Each year hundreds of patients are treated for ankle sprains/strains with ankle fractures as one of the most common injuries treated by orthopedists and podiatrists. The knee joint is also considered the most-often injured joint in the entire human body.

Simplified analytical approaches to estimate hip joint contact pressures using perfectly spherical geometry have been described in the literature (rigid body spring models); however, estimations based on these simulations have not corresponded well with experimental in vitro data. Recent evidence from our laboratory suggests that finite element (FE) models of the hip joint that incorporate detailed geometry for cartilage and bone can predict cartilage pressures in good agreement with experimental data [1]. However, it is unknown whether this degree of model complexity is necessary. The objecti

Abstract:
The wear prediction of artificial joints is a very difficult task due to several factors. First, one could notice a large domain of joint loading due to the wide spectrum of common activities. Secondary, to account for the evolution of contact conditions due to wearing could imply a high level of nonlinearity and time-consuming algorithms in order to solve. The authors tried to overcome all these difficulties by using a complex predictive model that combines statistical evaluation, nonlinear mechanical analyses of load transfer by the contact interface and tribological estimations of the wear

Abstract:
Improvements in surgical procedures, installation techniques and properties of materials have resulted in a remarkable reduction in the failure of artificial hip joints (AHJ) due to infection. However, the durability of these replacements is greatly limited by premature osteolysis and eventual joint loosening, caused by macrophage activity in response to the release of submicron particles of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) cup material [1–4]. The wear debris is mainly due to wear between the bearing surfaces, and these wear rates are known to be accelerated by the third body

As a first contribution to this research topic, the present work deals with an athlete-specific kinematic analysis of the lolotte aimed at quantifying the hip and knee joint angle trajectories and knee ligament strains. A marker-based motion capture system was employed to track the execution of the lolotte on a purposely desi

Some open questions raised by the reaction of tissue on particles require the knowledge of the acting wear mechanisms. These have to be clarified within the macro-, micro-, and nanoscale. Thus, this contribution focuses on the wear mechanisms of hard-hard artificial hip joints which have been verified to act both in clinical application and both during laboratory simulation. Some aspects of novel developments will be discussed on the basis of these findings.

Nowadays, people publish a lot of natural language texts on social media. Socialized word embeddings (SWE) has been proposed to deal with two phenomena of language use: everyone has his/her own personal characteristics of language use and socially connected users are likely to use language in similar ways. We observe that the spread of language use is transitive. Namely, one user can affect his/her friends and the friends can also affect their friends. However, SWE modeled the transitivity implicitly. The social regularization in SWE only applies to one-hop neighbors and thus users outside the
