Authors: Boiagina Olga , Stepanenko Oleksandr , Lebedieva Anastasiia
Published: August 2021

The correlation between the cranial height and the height of the corpus callosum trunk bulge, and the relationship between the corpus callosum shape and the cranial shape have not been studied. The purpose of the article was to determine the individual variability of the corpus callosum height and shape of adults, and their dependence on the cranial height and shape. The material was two samples from a series of MR scans of the head of men and women of the second period of adulthood (19 variations in each group) without the central nervous system pathology. Magnetic resonance tomographic scanner Magnetom C was used for obtaining MRI images. Morphometric study was conducted using RadiAnt Dicom Viewer software on MR scans performed in the sagittal area in T1- and T2-weighted images modes. According to the findings, the height of the corpus callosum trunk bulge of men is on average – 26.1 ± 2.8 mm, women – 25.2 ± 2.6 mm, and the neurocranium height – 150.4 ± 6.9 mm and 140.2 ± 4.2 mm, respectively. Wherein the aspect ratio of the neurocranium height to the corpus callosum trunk bulge height in men is 5.8 ± 0.7, in women – 5.6 ± 0.5. The aspect ratio of the corpus callosum longitudinal size along the constricting chord to its trunk bulge height in men is on average 2.8 ± 0.3, in women – 2.7 ± 0.3. The absence of correlation between the cranial height and the corpus callosum trunk bulge height, and the absence of correlation between the corpus callosum shape and cranial shape in people of the second period of adulthood have been concluded.

It was analyzed that theoretical bases of the realization process of the neuropsychological approach in the correction of the children's development who have difficulties in training based on needed complex diagnostics in the conditions of constant monitoring of a condition in their development, constant improvement of methods and receptions of inclusive training of primary school age pupils. It is determined that the application of corrective neuropsychological influence on the damaged development of personality is one of the important areas of correctional pedagogy, which uses the compensatory capabilities of the child's brain. The article describes the content and features of neuropsychological features of developmental correction of primary school age children who have learning difficulties (psychomotor skills, speech, cognitive processes, visual-objective perception, emotional disorders, etc.). Means of neuropsychological correction are presented, which are represented by two blocks: formation and development of a sensorimotor component of higher mental functions and development and correction of cognitive functions and components that are part of them. The organizational and pedagogical conditions for the development of junior schoolchildren's creativity with special educational needs have been developed and experimentally tested, in particular: the creation of a creative development environment through the introduction of game teaching methods; intensification of subject to subject interaction of participants of the educational process in the conditions of inclusive education based on partnership pedagogy; maximum enrichment of subjects with creative content to increase the experience of creative self-expression of students in lessons and extracurricular activities successfully tested during the formative stage of the experiment.

The research prominence lies in an increasing interest of the state in patriotic education and physical training of young people for homeland defenсe. There is an urgent today to reconstruct the ethnic model of patriotic education and its component, in particular military-and-patriotic education, identify the means of physical culture and sports (physical exercise; natural, artificial and hygienic factors) and justify their use under reforms in education following the needs and demands of the individual and the society in Ukraine. The research aims to theoretically justify and experimentally verify the effectiveness of military-and-patriotic education of young people using physical culture and sports based on ethnopedagogy, following neuropedagogical criteria of their psychophysical readiness for homeland defenсe. The authors of the research offer to introduce the specialized course on martial arts of Ukraine, which refers to the worldview and mindset of Ukrainians underlying the Ukrainian military (combat) culture, as well as strengthening and enhancement of neuropsychological properties and symptom complexes of character. The control group pupils (25) were taught based on the traditional system (they acquired and improved their knowledge, abilities and skills in preliminary military training). The experimental group pupils (25) purposefully studied the specialized course on the martial arts of Ukraine. Such methods as surveys, questionnaires, tests, interviews and observations were used to conduct neuropsychological diagnostics of young people’s readiness for homeland defenсe. In EG, the number of the respondents with a high level of psychophysical readiness for homeland defenсe has increased by 10.3%; the number of the respondents with an average level of psychophysical readiness for homeland defenсe has increased only by 2.2%; the number of the respondents with a low level of psychophysical readiness for homeland defenсe has decreased by 12.5%. Modern military-and-patriotic education of young people can be considered effective if the pedagogical model of military-and patriotic education using physical culture and sports and taking into account neuropsychological and neuropedagogical factors is integrated into the modern system of national education.

Published: August 2021

According to the concept of developing inclusive education, the process of introducing inclusion in schools has been intensified. This is due to the training of physical education teachers to work with children with special educational needs during specially organized courses, whose fragmentation has not greatly increased the level of teachers’ qualifications. The research aims to scientifically justify theoretical and methodological foundations, develop and experimentally verify the methodology of training future physical education teachers for professional activities under the conditions of inclusive education, taking into account the specifics of their psychological, theoretical and practical readiness for it. Pedagogical conditions for training future physical education teachers for professional activities under the conditions of inclusive education are defined as follows: prioritizing the content of programmes and teaching methodology; improving the content, forms, methods and means required to master normative, psychological, pedagogical and correctional theoretical and practical and scientific foundations of inclusive education, as well as didactic and correctional and developmental technologies during the classes dedicated to professional teaching methodologies; consolidating professional knowledge and practical skills of students based on the simulation modelling and reflection on pedagogical experience of future physical education teachers under the conditions of inclusive education with the relevant update of the content of teaching placements. The experimental work involved 444 students majoring in physical education and sport (222 students in the experimental and the control groups). Given the summarized data of final tests, it becomes clear that the students in the EG tend to have a high level of such readiness (at the ascertaining stage – 28.6%, at the formative stage – 47.0%, the difference being 18.4%). The results of the experiment prove the effectiveness of introducing the developed methodology of training future physical education teachers for professional activities under the conditions of inclusive education.

Published: August 2021

Since any psychological and pedagogical correction involves the modification or creation of neural connections for a new model of thinking and behavior, such activities of the teacher is impossible without taking into account the data of neuropsychology and neuropedagogy. The purpose of the study is to develop and theoretically substantiate the method of formation of correctional and pedagogical competence of primary school teachers in the process of professional retraining on the basis of a neuropedagogical approach. The study involved 142 respondents - primary school teachers (70 testing group and 72 experimental group). For effective formation of correctional and pedagogical competence of teachers on the basis of neuropedagogy in the process of professional retraining used technologies of contextual learning A. Verbytsky (2006), which allowed to form a holistic structure of professional activity of teachers by optimal combination of reproductive and active methods and reproduction of neurosocial context of pedagogical activity. The number of teachers with a high level of formation of the cognitive component increased by 53.7%, motivational - 52%, reflective - 50.7%, operational - 49.2%. The necessity of applying contextual teaching technology has been proved, which allows creating an integrated structure of professional activity of primary school teachers by using the optimal combination of reproductive and active teaching methods and reproducing the neurosocial context of professional activity using the content potential of pedagogical disciplines for positive motivation for the implementation of inclusive education.

There appears to be the need to consolidate pupil-athletes’ knowledge of humanities (Ukrainian History, English, Ukrainian, Ukrainian literature), which greatly affect their emotional and value attitude towards the surrounding world, promote active life position and widen outlook, develop reading, linguistic and speech culture, enhance understanding of life meaning through the assimilation of ideals, universal values, norms of morality and patterns in behaviour culture. The research aims to disclose the impact of the developed system of assignments on the consolidation of knowledge of humanities in pupil-athletes in the process of training. The pedagogical experiment was conducted in Ukrainian comprehensive schools (142 participants in the experimental group and 150 participants in the control group). The diagnostic toolset includes questionnaires for identifying cognitive interest of pupils in humanities, questionnaires for teachers and parents, tests for identifying abilities to observe, concentrate attention, memorize and apply the content of educational material, tests for studying types of memory, methods of adolescents’ self-assessment, methods of unfinished sentences, notes, reading diaries, compositions. Thus, the indicator of creative nature in acquiring knowledge of humanities has increased (+ 19,1%) in the experimental group. Analyzing the results from the experiment, one can conclude that the designed system of assignments aimed at consolidating pupil-athletes’ knowledge of humanities has contributed to increasing the levels of their overall performance, responsibility and discipline.

The new technologies have become indispensable in the students' lives, influencing their development at academic and personal levels. It is evident that their use in education is going to change the way of teaching, learning and assessment. Geography lessons are much more interactive when new technologies are integrated into the curriculum. In this article we describe a study regarding the integration of the new technologies in geography lessons. At the study 250 people - 73 teachers and 177 students, from schools and high schools in Romania, both rural and urban areas participated. The research is based on the application of questionnaires and interviews to teachers as well as to students from different schools. As a result of this research, it was concluded that the use of new technologies in geography lessons is important because it helps the formation and consolidation of the knowledge of the children; students understand the information more quickly and easily; lessons are interactive and students' motivation for learning is higher.

Published: August 2021

Ongoing development of modern technologies requires high-level skills and abilities in completing the preparation of the student youth to specific situations in life. The educational system needs to use more efficient approaches in increasing essential skills for modern life and work situations. The study's main aim is to specify the appropriate system of teaching essential and more profound skills of the cynological translators for fulfilling their specific work activities. The study's academic importance lies in revealing new connections between the disciplinary literacy and ESP sphere in preparing the cynological translators with practical meaning for future application. The students of distance course on training the cynological translators-assistants were questioned about the essential components necessary for their job completing. The results were verified by the statistical processing method. The results provided support for the conceptual framework, with essential elements of disciplinary literacy for cynological translators. Except for the primary skills applied for developing the specific knowledge, the main element for professional realization is acquiring the specific vocabulary and ability to operate with it in practice. This study's implications might relate to the more various scope of disciplinary literacy of the cynological translators.
Online Education during Pandemic: Sharenting vs. Children’s Right to their Own Image and Education
Authors: Dobrila Mirela Carmen
Published: August 2021

This article examines the legal issues that have forced the transition to an online school learning process for children, caused by the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus and the pandemic. Although we believe that from a legal point of view, children's access to education must be respected, the article highlights the problems regarding the amplification of the sharenting phenomenon (already at worrying levels), determined by the transition to online learning. The article shows that the development of the educational process in the online environment determines the amplification of the sharenting phenomenon: this happens because teachers and parents have no legal knowledge and have not been trained on the risks of the online environment and the limits to children's rights (posting videos and audio of children in the online educational process); the school educational process takes place through social media platforms that are not designed for online learning and are not prepared to respect the child's right to his own image and his privacy and dignity. The article also analyzes the legal implications in the European context related to children's rights.

Hearing organ damage caused by high-intensity noise continues to be one of the actual problems of modern otorhinolaryngology. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of transient evoked otoacoustic emissions (TEOAEs) as a screening method for hearing research. 15 patients (men aged 18 to 28 years) were examined before and after exposure to high-intensity noise of artillery weapons. All patients passed a set of diagnostic tests: otoscopy, whispered voice test, tonal threshold audiometry, and TEOAE. Hearing thresholds according to audiometry did not exceed normal values. However, the number of people who passed the test TEOAE after noise exposure was 46.6% in the right ear and 40.0% in the left ear, which was statistically significantly different from the data obtained before the shooting. The authors conclude that TEOAE allows evaluation of the functional state of the hearing organ better than tonal threshold audiometry. This technique can be used for mass screening of individuals who are most sensitive to the effects of high-intensity noise, as well as for their further in-depth audiological monitoring.

Published: August 2021

El objetivo de la tesis es demostrar que existe una excelente oportunidad de negocio para la creación de una Central de Riesgo cuyo principal diferencial es generar información crediticia inteligente para que las entidades de microfinanzas puedan tomar mejores decisiones y detectar oportunidades de negocio. Definiendo al sector de las microfinanzas como el rubro de créditos otorgados a las micro y pequeñas empresas. El tipo de crédito destinado a este sector ha desarrollado un notable crecimiento en la última década en el cual el Perú es líder mundial. Actualmente las instituciones financieras que cubren este gran segmento son clasificadas por la Superintendencia de Banca y Seguros en: Cajas Municipales, Cajas Rurales y Edpymes; sin embargo, hay instituciones como los bancos y financieras que también se ocupan de este segmento. Mi Banco es la institución líder de este tipo de mercado con un 18% de participación del total de desembolsos, seguido de instituciones financieras y cajas municipales como CrediScotia, Caja Municipal de Piura y Sullana. Cada una de las instituciones de microfinanzas utiliza la información de las centrales de riesgo para sus procesos de gestión. En el proceso de colocaciones o captación de nuevos clientes las entidades requieren información del riesgo crediticio de los prospectos, los datos de contacto, la deuda acumulada así como su capacidad de pago. Para la gestión de la cartera es necesario tener la información de manera ordenada con alertas que indican a los ejecutivos de microfinanzas el estado del su cartera en sus principales indicadores de saldo deudor, mora y nuevos clientes. Finalmente, para completar el círculo de la gestión del crédito las entidades desean información de las centrales de riesgo para realizar las labores de cobranza.

Introducción: Las cicatrices post-acné son frecuentes y ocasionan un impacto negativo en la salud mental y en la calidad de vida de las personas. Recientemente el uso del plasma rico en plaquetas (PRP) se ha propuesto como parte de su manejo. Objetivos: Sintetizar la evidencia primaria con respecto a la eficacia y la seguridad del PRP como tratamiento adyuvante de las cicatrices atróficas post-acné. Métodos: Llevamos a cabo una revisión sistemática y metaanálisis de ensayos clínicos controlados. Realizamos búsqueda primaria en PUBMED-MEDLINE, WEB OF SCIENCE, WEB OF SCIENCE-MEDLINE, EMBASE, SCOPUS y CENTRAL; así como, en los registros de ensayos clínicos de EE.UU., Europa y de la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) hasta diciembre del 2019. También buscamos en repositorios de literatura gris. Para la evaluación del riesgo de sesgo utilizamos el instrumento de la Colaboración Cochrane. Calculamos riesgos relativos (RR) mediante modelos de efectos aleatorios con un intervalo de confianza (IC) de 95%. Resultados: De un total de 547 registros, incluimos 14 estudios (n=429). Respecto a la mejoría clínica, evidenciamos superioridad del PRP como terapia adyuvante en los estudios que utilizaron escalas por cuartiles (RR=1,79; IC95% 1,39–2,31; I2=21,7%; p<0,001) y en los que emplearon la escala cualitativa de Goodman y Barón (RR=4,34; IC95% 1,60–11,76; I2=29,1%; p<0,001).

Os conhecimentos dos guardiões dos modos de ser – teko jára, habitantes de patamares de existência tangíveis e intangíveis e a produção dos coletivos kaiowá e guarani
Authors: Benites Eliel , Marques Pereira Levi
Published: August 2021

O artigo reflete sobre os conhecimentos mobilizados na produção e reprodução dos coletivos kaiowá e guarani no MS, considerando o sistema de conhecimento por eles definido como tradicional – ava reko ymaguare. Tal sistema se articula a partir de princípios basilares na construção da pessoa e na conduta social. As frentes de expansão econômica impuseram o confinamento territorial e, nesse cenário adverso, os líderes elaboram estratégias de transformação em seu próprio sistema social, experimentando formas de agremiações coletivas, por eles denominadas de ava reko pyahy. Assim, os xamãs – Ñanderu – acionam referenciais do próprio sistema de conhecimentos para compreender, transformar e transgredir o confinamento territorial e a escassez de recursos ambientais. Os Ñanderu persistem no esforço de levantar parentelas e aldeias, em conexão com os teko jára, guardiões de modalidades de ser, efetivadas em planos de existência tangíveis e intangíveis, insistindo na conectividade entre os diversos planos do cosmos.

Published: August 2021

Tivemos o privilégio de trabalhar em alguns momentos de nossas vidas com Dominique Tilkin Gallois, professora colaboradora sênior da Universidade de São Paulo (USP) e pesquisadora do Centro de Estudos Ameríndios (CEstA). Nessas experiências de orientação à pesquisa e trabalho, ela nos beneficiou com sua generosidade e profundo conhecimento acerca dos modos indígenas de conhecer e metodologias de formação de pesquisadores indígenas, o que nos inspirou a realizar essa entrevista. Feita de maneira remota na manhã do dia 23 de junho de 2020[1], a entrevista nos traz um pouco de sua história e de como se tornou pesquisadora em Etnologia e História indígena, abordando temas de grande relevância para as pesquisas realizadas com indígenas e por indígenas – e contribuições importantes no campo teórico-metodológico e bem como nos processos políticos inevitavelmente envolvidos na pesquisa.

Como sua destacada atuação como antropóloga não se restringe aos temas acima, a conversa acabou sendo tangenciada por outros assuntos centrais em sua trajetória, como tradições orais e cosmologias ameríndias, políticas indígenas, patrimônio cultural e conhecimentos tradicionais. O modo sempre inovador como Dominique articula investimento acadêmico e ação indigenista também ganha destaque através dos relatos de sua experiência na assessoria direta a comunidades indígenas no Amapá, norte do Pará e outros estados. Essas reflexões compartilhadas nos permitiram uma aproximação com um certo fazer antropológico, que convidamos os leitores da revista a conhecer. Eis a “antropologia comprometida” de Dominique Tilkin Gallois.

Natural selection is commonly seen not just as an explanation for adaptive evolution, but as the inevitable consequence of “heritable variation in fitness among individuals”. Although it remains embedded in biological concepts, such a formalisation makes it tempting to explore whether this precondition may be met not only in life as we know it, but also in other physical systems. This would imply that these systems are subject to natural selection and may perhaps be investigated in a biological framework, where properties are typically examined in light of their putative functions. Here we relate the major questions that were debated during a three-day workshop[1] devoted to discussing whether natural selection may take place in non-living physical systems. We start this report with a brief overview of research fields dealing with “life-like” or “proto-biotic” systems, where mimicking evolution by natural selection in test tubes stands as a major objective. We contend the challenge may be as much conceptual as technical. Taking the problem from a physical angle, we then discuss the framework of dissipative structures. Although life is viewed in this context as a particular case within a larger ensemble of physical phenomena, this approach does not provide general principles from which natural selection could be derived. Turning back to evolutionary biology, we ask to what extent the most general formulations of the necessary conditions or signatures of natural selection may be applicable beyond biology. In our view, such a cross-disciplinary jump is in large part impeded by reliance on individuality as a central yet implicit and loosely defined concept. Overall, these discussions thus lead us to conjecture that understanding, in physico-chemical terms, how individuality emerges and how it can be recognised, will be essential in the search for instances of evolution by natural selection outside of living systems.

Background: Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the leading malignancy diseases worldwide, especially in Asian. CAST is a potential oncogene in GC carcinogenesis process. The character of macrophage infiltration in GC microenvironment was also unaddressed. Methods: We first applied machine searching in gene candidate evaluation of GC. CAST expression was analyzed via the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) and Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis 2 (GEPIA2) database. Protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was downloaded from STRING. We investigated the impact of CAST on clinical prognosis using Kaplan-Meier plotter. The correlations between CAST and Lgr5 and macrophage infiltration in GC was surveyed via TIMER 2.0. Finally, GeneMANIA was also used to evaluate the possible functional linkage between genes. Results: After machine-assisted searching, CAST expression was found signicant difference in the overall survival of GC patients. STRING revealed CAST related proteomics and transcriptomics associations, mainly about CAPN family. Moreover, CAST significantly impacts the prognosis of GC from other datasets validation. Notably, high CAST expression was correlated with worse overall survival in GC patients (hazard ratio = 1.59; logrank P = 9.4 x 10-8). CAST and Lgr5 expressions were both positively correlated with WNT 2 and WNT 2B. Among GC patients in several datasets, CAST and macrophage infiltration evaluated together showed no obvious trend toward poor clinical overall survival. Conclusion: CAST plays an important role in GC clinical prognosis and is associated with WNT 2/WNT 2B/Lgr5. Our study denmostrated that CAST in GC overall survival is regulated by macrophage infiltration.
Indicators of Rainforest Recovery from Disturbance
Authors: Douglas Ian
Published: August 2021

Recovery of forest after logging can be tested in many ways: the presence of particular species of fauna or flora, the similarity of the biodiversity of the recovering forest to that on neighbouring areas of undisturbed forest; or the characteristics of soils and streams whose conditions may have drastically changed during logging. Three cases of rainforest recovery after logging and clearance from Australia and Borneo exhibit different starting and different goals for recovery. Faunal indicators of recovery vary with size and with species dependence of the rainforest. Endemic forest species may have difficulty in recovering. Tree species richness and abundance may recover in two decades, but canopy closure takes longer. Compacted soils may retain low infiltration capacities for many decades. This diversity in recovery rates is confirmed when compared with those used elsewhere. Because the starting points for recovery vary, from damage by tropical cyclones and landslides, to clearance for shifting cultivation, pasture or agriculture, to post-logging conditions, universal indicators may be inappropriate. The desired endpoints of recovery also range from a “wilderness” state to a National Park for human enjoyment, biodiversity preservation, safeguarding rights of traditional forest-dwelling peoples, or a second round of selective logging.
Thoracic Morphology and Bronchial Narrowing Are Related to Pulmonary Function in Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis

Published: August 2021

Background:

In adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS), lung function impairment is not necessarily related to the coronal spinal deformity. Recently, right-sided bronchial narrowing has been reported in thoracic AIS. The aim of this study was to describe the relation of chest and spinal deformity parameters, bronchial narrowing, and lung volumes with pulmonary function in preoperative AIS.

Methods:

Spinal radiographs, low-dose computed tomographic (CT) scans of the spine including the chest, and pulmonary function tests were retrospectively collected for 85 preoperative patients with thoracic AIS in 2 centers and were compared with 14 matched controls. Three-dimensional lung and airway reconstructions were acquired. Correlation analysis was performed in which radiographic spinal parameters, CT-based thoracic deformity parameters (rib-hump index [RHi], spinal penetration index, endothoracic hump ratio, hemithoracic-width ratio), lung volume asymmetry, and bronchial cross-sectional area were compared with percent-of-predicted spirometry results.

Results:

Forty-one patients (48%) had a percent-of-predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1%) or percent-of-predicted forced vital capacity (FVC%) of <65%, and 17 patients (20%) had obstructive lung disease. All thoracic deformity parameters correlated significantly with FEV1% and FVC%; RHi was found to be the best correlate (rs= −0.52 for FEV1% and −0.54 for FVC%). Patients with AIS with impaired pulmonary function had hypokyphosis, a larger rib hump, increased spinal and thoracic rotation, a narrower right hemithorax, and increased intrusion of the spine into the chest. Spinal intrusion correlated with right-sided bronchial narrowing, relative right lung volume loss, and decreased FEV1% and FVC%. Multivariate regression including spinal and thoracic deformity parameters, lung volume asymmetry, and airway parameters could explain 57% of the variance in FEV1% and 54% of the variance in FVC%.

Conclusions:

Chest intrusion by the endothoracic hump is related to right-sided bronchial narrowing and lung function loss in preoperative AIS. The findings support the theory that ventilatory dysfunction in thoracic AIS is not only restrictive but frequently has an obstructive component, especially in patients with hypokyphosis. RHi is the most predictive chest parameter for lung function loss.

Three-Year Rates of Reoperation and Revision Following Mobile Versus Fixed-Bearing Total Ankle Arthroplasty
Authors: Assal M. , Kutaish H. , Acker A. , Hattendorf J. , Lübbeke A. , Crevoisier X.
Published: August 2021

Background:

Currently, the implants utilized in total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) are divided between mobile-bearing 3-component and fixed-bearing 2-component designs. The literature evaluating the influence of this mobility difference on implant survival is sparse. The purpose of the present study was therefore to compare the short-term survival of 2 implants of similar design from the same manufacturer, surgically implanted by the same surgeons, in fixed-bearing or mobile-bearing versions.

Methods:

All patients were enrolled who underwent TAA with either the mobile-bearing Salto (Tornier and Integra) or the fixed-bearing Salto Talaris (Integra) in 3 centers by 2 surgeons between January 2004 and March 2018. All patients who underwent TAA from January 2004 to April 2013 received the Salto implant, and all patients who underwent TAA after November 2012 received the Salto Talaris implant. The primary outcome was time, within 3 years, to first all-cause reoperation, revision of any metal component, and revision of any component, including the polyethylene insert. Secondary outcomes included the frequency, cause, and type of reoperation.

Results:

A total of 302 consecutive patients were included, of whom 171 received the mobile-bearing and 131 received the fixed-bearing implant. The adjusted hazard ratio for all-cause reoperation was 1.42 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.67 to 3.00; p = 0.36); for component revision, 3.31 (95% CI, 0.93 to 11.79; p = 0.06); and for metal component revision, 2.78 (95% CI, 0.58 to 13.33; p = 0.20). A total of 31 reoperations were performed in the mobile-bearing group compared with 14 in the fixed-bearing group (p = 0.07). More extensive reoperation procedures were performed in the mobile-bearing group.

Conclusions:

With the largest comparison of 2 implants of similar design from the same manufacturer, the present study supports the use of a fixed-bearing design in terms of short-term failure. We found a 3-times higher rate of revision among mobile-bearing implants compared with fixed-bearing implants at 3 years after TAA. Reoperations, including first and subsequent procedures, tended to be less common and the causes and types of reoperations less extensive among fixed-bearing implants.
