Authors: Bennett P. M. , Sargeant I. D. , Myatt R. W. , Penn-Barwell J. G. 
Published: June 2015

This is a retrospective study of survivors of recent conflicts with an open fracture of the femur. We analysed the records of 48 patients (48 fractures) and assessed the outcome. The median follow up for 47 patients (98%) was 37 months (interquartile range 19 to 53); 31 (66%) achieved union; 16 (34%) had a revision procedure, two of which were transfemoral amputation (4%).The New Injury Severity Score, the method of fixation, infection and the requirement for soft-tissue cover were not associated with a poor outcome. The degree of bone loss was strongly associated with a poor outcome (p = 0.00204). A total of four patients developed an infection; two with S. aureus, one with E. coli and one with A. baumannii.This study shows that, compared with historical experience, outcomes after open fractures of the femur sustained on the battlefield are good, with no mortality and low rates of infection and late amputation. The degree of bone loss is closely associated with a poor outcome.Cite this article: Bone Joint J 2015;97-B:842–6.
Increased incidence of femoral fractures in small femurs and women undergoing uncemented total hip arthroplasty – why?

Published: June 2015

The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between the geometry of the proximal femur and the incidence of intra-operative fracture during uncemented total hip arthroplasty (THA).We studied the pre-operative CT scans of 100 patients undergoing THA with an uncemented femoral component. We measured the anteroposterior and mediolateral dimensions at the level of division of the femoral neck to calculate the aspect ratio of the femur. Wide variations in the shape of the femur were observed, from round, to very narrow elliptic. The femurs of women were narrower than those of men (p < 0.0001) and small femurs were also narrower than large ones. Patients with an intra-operative fracture of the calcar had smaller and narrower femurs than those without a fracture (p < 0.05) and the implanted Corail stems were smaller in those with a fracture (mean size 9 vs 12, p < 0.0001).The variability of the shape of the femoral neck at the level of division contributes to the understanding of the causation of intra-operative fractures in uncemented THA.Cite this article: Bone Joint J 2015;97-B:741–8.
The accuracy of positioning of a custom-made implant within a large acetabular defect at revision arthroplasty of the hip
Authors: Baauw M. , van Hellemondt G. G. , van Hooff M. L. , Spruit M. 
Published: June 2015

We evaluated the accuracy with which a custom-made acetabular component could be positioned at revision arthroplasty of the hip in patients with a Paprosky type 3 acetabular defect.A total of 16 patients with a Paprosky type 3 defect underwent revision surgery using a custom-made trabecular titanium implant. There were four men and 12 women with a median age of 67 years (48 to 79). The planned inclination (INCL), anteversion (AV), rotation and centre of rotation (COR) of the implant were compared with the post-operative position using CT scans.A total of seven implants were malpositioned in one or more parameters: one with respect to INCL, three with respect to AV, four with respect to rotation and five with respect to the COR.To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study in which CT data acquired for the pre-operative planning of a custom-made revision acetabular implant have been compared with CT data on the post-operative position. The results are encouraging.Cite this article: Bone Joint J 2015; 97-B:780–5.
Hydroxyapatite ceramic-coated femoral components in young patients followed up for 17 to 25 years
Authors: Syed M. A. , Hutt N. J. , Shah N. , Edge A. J. 
Published: June 2015

This study reports the results of 38 total hip arthroplasties (THAs) in 33 patients aged < 50 years, using the JRI Furlong hydroxyapatite ceramic (HAC)-coated femoral component. This represents an update of previous reports of the same cohort at ten and 16 years, which were reported in 2004 and 2009, respectively. We describe the survival, radiological and functional outcomes at a mean follow-up of 21 years (17 to 25). Of the surviving 34 THAs, one underwent femoral revision for peri-prosthetic fracture after 21 years, and one patient (one hip) was lost to follow-up. Using aseptic loosening as the end-point, 12 hips (31.5%) needed acetabular revision but none needed femoral revision, demonstrating 100% survival (95% confidence interval 89 to 100).In young patients with high demands, the Furlong HAC–coated femoral component gives excellent long-term results.Cite this article: Bone Joint J 2015;97-B:749–54.

Published: June 2015

Only limited data are available regarding the infiltration of local anaesthetic for total hip arthroplasty (THA), and no studies were performed for THA using the anterior approach. In this prospective, randomised placebo-controlled study we investigated the effect of both standard and reverse infiltration of local anaesthetic in combination with the anterior approach for THA. The primary endpoint was the mean numeric rating score for pain four hours post-operatively. In addition, we recorded the length of hospital stay, the operating time, the destination of the patient at discharge, the use of pain medication, the occurrence of side effects and pain scores at various times post-operatively. Between November 2012 and January 2014, 75 patients were included in the study. They were randomised into three groups: standard infiltration of local anaesthetic, reversed infiltration of local anaesthetic, and placebo. There was no difference in mean numeric rating score for pain four hours post-operatively (p = 0.87). There were significantly more side effects at one and eight hours post-operatively in the placebo group (p = 0.02; p = 0.03), but this did not influence the mobilisation of the patients. There were no differences in all other outcomes between the groups. We found no clinically relevant effect when the infiltration of local anaesthetic with ropivacaine and epinephrine was used in a multimodal pain protocol for THA using the anterior approach.

Published: June 2015

AbstractSmall non-coding RNAs named microRNAs (miRNAs) modulate some functions and signaling pathways in skin epithelial cells and melanocytes. They also function as oncogenes or tumor suppressors in malignancies and tumor metastasis. We investigated the expression patterns of miRNAs, including miR-10b, 21, 200c, 373 and 520c, which regulate epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and metastasis in isolated cancer stem cells (CSCs) and non- CSCs. Six melanoma cell lines were tested for the expressions of stem cell markers. Melanoma stem cells were enriched via fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) using the CD133 cell surface marker or spheroid culture. They were then characterized based on colony and sphere formation, and the expressions of stemness and EMT regulator genes and their invasion potential were assessed using real-time qRT-PCR and invasion assay. Our results indicate that cells enriched via sphere formation expressed all the stemness-related genes and had an enhanced number of colonies, spheres and invaded cells compared to cells enriched using the CD133 cell surface marker. Moreover, miRNAs controlling metastasis increased in the melanospheres. This may be related to the involvement of CSCs in the metastatic process. However, this must be further confirmed through the application of knockdown experiments. The results show that sphere formation is a useful method for enriching melanoma stem cells. Melanospheres were found to upregulate miR-10b, 21, 200c, 373 and 520c, so we suggest that they may control both metastasis and stemness potential.
Theoretical and Experimental EPR Study of VO2+-Doped Ammonium Hydrogen Tartrate

Published: June 2015

AbstractWe studied the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra of VO2+ ions in ammonium hydrogen tartrate (AHT) single crystals at room temperature. We determined the spin Hamiltonian parameters and the molecular bonding coefficients of the complex both in theoretical and experimental ways. The results indicate that the vanadium ion forms a tetragonally compressed octahedron and has a double bond with one of the oxygens in the axial position. This is the reason why the paramagnetic centre in the host crystal is axially symmetric as in most of the vanadyl ion-containing complexes.

The New Hampshire Ten Steps to Successful Breastfeeding Collaborative: A Statewide QI Initiative
Authors: Whalen Bonny L. , Kelly Joyce , Holmes Alison Volpe 
Published: June 2015

Background and Objective:
Despite national recognition for their breastfeeding-friendly practices, many New Hampshire hospitals are still not achieving the Ten Steps to Successful Breastfeeding. To increase achievement of the Ten Steps in New Hampshire’s birthing hospitals, facilitate Baby-Friendly Hospital Initiative (BFHI) designation for interested hospitals, and improve rates of in-hospital any and exclusive breastfeeding.

Methods:
After a 2010 needs assessment, we conducted 2 statewide workshops targeting 6 of the Ten Steps found to be most deficient among New Hampshire birthing hospitals. Eighteen of 20 hospitals attended at least 1 workshop, and 6 participated in an intensive collaborative. In 2013, we analyzed interval Ten Step achievement and in-hospital breastfeeding trends.

Results:
Staff education showed the greatest improvement, increasing step 2 achievement from 1 to 6 hospitals (P = .05). Although the number of hospitals implementing step 6 (breast milk only) and step 9 (no artificial nipples) increased, differences were not statistically significant. Intensive collaborative hospitals achieved an average of 1.5 new steps, whereas non–Baby Friendly hospitals lost 0.7 steps (P = .05). In-hospital breastfeeding rates increased in intensive collaborative hospitals and were significantly higher than those in non–Baby Friendly hospitals by the end of the study (any breastfeeding, 89% vs 73%, P = .03; exclusive breastfeeding, 84% vs 61%, P &lt; .001).

Conclusions:
A statewide improvement collaborative facilitated increases in Ten Step achievement and in-hospital breastfeeding for hospitals participating in an intensive collaborative. Active work in Ten Step implementation, including staff education, appears to be more effective in increasing in-hospital breastfeeding than does BFHI designation alone.
