Abstract
Importance Despite increased use of antibiotic-loaded bone cement (ALBC) in joint arthroplasty over recent decades, current evidence for prophylactic use of ALBC to reduce risk of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is insufficient. Objective To compare the rate of revision attributed to PJI following primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) using ALBC vs plain bone cement. Design, Setting, and Participants This international cohort study used data from 14 national or regional joint arthroplasty registries in Australia, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Italy, New Zealand, Norway, Romania, Sweden, Switzerland, the Netherlands, the UK, and the US. The study included primary TKAs for osteoarthritis registered from January 1, 2010, to December 31, 2020, and followed-up until December 31, 2021. Data analysis was performed from April to September 2023. Exposure Primary TKA with ALBC vs plain bone cement. Main Outcomes and Measures The primary outcome was risk of 1-year revision for PJI. Using a distributed data network analysis method, data were harmonized, and a cumulative revision rate was calculated (1 - Kaplan-Meier), and Cox regression analyses were performed within the 10 registries using both cement types. A meta-analysis was then performed to combine all aggregated data and evaluate the risk of 1-year revision for PJI and all causes. Results Among 2 168 924 TKAs included, 93% were performed with ALBC. Most TKAs were performed in female patients (59.5%) and patients aged 65 to 74 years (39.9%), fully cemented (92.2%), and in the 2015 to 2020 period (62.5%). All participating registries reported a cumulative 1-year revision rate for PJI of less than 1% following primary TKA with ALBC (range, 0.21%-0.80%) and with plain bone cement (range, 0.23%-0.70%). The meta-analyses based on adjusted Cox regression for 1 917 190 TKAs showed no statistically significant difference at 1 year in risk of revision for PJI (hazard rate ratio, 1.16; 95% CI, 0.89-1.52) or for all causes (hazard rate ratio, 1.12; 95% CI, 0.89-1.40) among TKAs performed with ALBC vs plain bone cement. Conclusions and Relevance In this study, the risk of revision for PJI was similar between ALBC and plain bone cement following primary TKA. Any additional costs of ALBC and its relative value in reducing revision risk should be considered in the context of the overall health care delivery system.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fracture-associated infections (FRI) are a severe complication that lead to higher morbidity and high costs for the healthcare system. An effective prophylaxis and treatment of FRI are therefore of great interest. OBJECTIVE The aim of this review is to summarize the available evidence on the use of local antibiotics for the prophylaxis and treatment of FRI. MATERIAL AND METHODS A thorough search and a narrative synthesis of the available literature were performed. Their depiction is supplemented by an illustrative presentation of a case report. RESULTS A robust consensus definition of FRI has existed since 2018. The current use of local antibiotics for the prophylaxis and treatment of FRI in Germany is heterogeneous. There is no consensus on local antibiotic treatment of FRI. The available literature shows an advantage for the additive local antibiotic treatment of open fractures. In closed fractures there is a tendency towards an advantage especially in the presence of further risk factors (long duration of external fixation, higher degree of closed tissue damage, compartment syndrome). According to analogous data from the field of endoprosthetics, additive local antibiotic treatment could also be advantageous under closed soft tissue conditions. The evidence is insufficient to enable the recommendation for a specific antibiotic or a specific mode of application. Local and systemic adverse reactions are frequently discussed in the literature but their incidence is low. CONCLUSION Overall, additive local antibiotic treatment is to be recommended for open fractures and in closed fractures in the presence of other risk factors. Local and systemic adverse reactions as well as the development of antibiotic resistance must be weighed up in individual cases.

Abstract
Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a rare but terrible complication in hip and knee arthroplasty, and the use of topical vancomycin powder (VP) has been investigated as a tool to potentially reduce its incidence. However, there remains no consensus on its efficacy. Therefore, the aim of this review is to provide an overview on the application of topical vancomycin in orthopaedic surgery focusing on the recent evidence and results in total joint arthroplasty. Several systematic reviews and meta-analyses on topical VP in hip and knee arthroplasty have been recently published reporting sometimes conflicting results. Apart from all being limited by the quality of the included studies (mostly level III and IV), confounding variables are often included potentially leading to biased conclusions. If taken into consideration the exclusive use of VP in isolation, the available data, although very limited, suggest that it does not reduce the infection rate in routine primary hip and knee arthroplasty. Therefore, we still cannot advise for a routinary application. A properly powered randomized-controlled trial would be necessary to clarify the role of VP in hip and knee arthroplasty. Based on the analysis of the current evidence, the use of topical VP appears to be safe when used locally in terms of systemic adverse reactions, hence, if proven to be effective, it could bring great benefits due to its low cost and accessibility.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Antibiotic-loaded bone cement (ALBC) and systemic antibiotic prophylaxis (SAP) have been used to reduce periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) rates. We investigated the use of ALBC and SAP in primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA). PATIENTS AND METHODS This observational study is based on 2,971,357 primary TKAs reported in 2010-2020 to national/regional joint arthroplasty registries in Australia, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Romania, South Africa, Sweden, Switzerland, the UK, and the USA. Aggregate-level data on trends and types of bone cement, antibiotic agents, and doses and duration of SAP used was extracted from participating registries. RESULTS ALBC was used in 77% of the TKAs with variation ranging from 100% in Norway to 31% in the USA. Palacos R+G was the most common (62%) ALBC type used. The primary antibiotic used in ALBC was gentamicin (94%). Use of ALBC in combination with SAP was common practice (77%). Cefazolin was the most common (32%) SAP agent. The doses and duration of SAP used varied from one single preoperative dosage as standard practice in Bolzano, Italy (98%) to 1-day 4 doses in Norway (83% of the 40,709 TKAs reported to the Norwegian arthroplasty register). CONCLUSION The proportion of ALBC usage in primary TKA varies internationally, with gentamicin being the most common antibiotic. ALBC in combination with SAP was common practice, with cefazolin the most common SAP agent. The type of ALBC and type, dose, and duration of SAP varied among participating countries.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Periprosthetic joint injection (PJI) is a rare, but life-altering complication of total joint arthroplasty (TJA). Though intrawound vancomycin powder (IVP) has been studied in other orthopedic subspecialties, its efficacy and safety in TJA has not been established. METHODS PubMed and MEDLINE databases were used to identify studies utilizing IVP in primary and revision total hip (THA) and knee arthroplasty (TKA). Postoperative PJI data were pooled using random effect models with results reported as odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Studies were weighted by the inverse variance of their effect estimates. RESULTS Overall, 16 of the 1871 studies identified were pooled for final analysis, yielding 33,731 patients totally. Of these, 17 164 received IVP. In aggregate, patients who received IVP had a decreased rate of PJI (OR 0.46, P < .05). Separately, TKA and THA patients who received IVP had lower rates of PJI (OR 0.41, P < .05 and OR 0.45, P < .05, respectively). Aggregate analysis of primary TKA and THA patients also revealed a decreased PJI rate (OR 0.44, P < .05). Pooled revision TKA and THA patients had a similar decrease in PJI rates (OR 0.30, P < .05). Although no publication bias was appreciated, these findings are limited by the low-quality evidence available. CONCLUSION While IVP may reduce the risk of PJI in primary and revision TJA, its widespread use cannot be recommended until higher-quality data, such as that obtained from randomized control trials, are available. This study underscores the continued need for more rigorous studies before general adoption of this practice by arthroplasty surgeons.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The materials and techniques for both primary and revision total hip arthroplasty (THA) have changed over time. This study evaluated if the indications for revision THA, rates of components utilized (femoral or acetabulum, both, or head/liner exchange), length of stay (LOS), and payments to surgeons and facilities have also changed. METHODS A retrospective study, utilizing the PearlDiver database, of 38,377 revision THA patients from January 2010 through December 2018 was performed. Data included the indication for revision, components revised (femoral or acetabulum, both, or head/liner exchange), LOS, and payments. Indications and components were analyzed by logistic regression (Dunnett's post hoc test). Revision totals were analyzed with a linear regression model. Analysis of variance assessed changes in LOS and payments. RESULTS Patients' median age was 67 years (Q1-Q3: 59-74), and 58.7% were female. Revisions for dislocation decreased between 2010 and 2018 (odds ratio [OR] 0.82, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.68-0.98). Revisions for component loosening increased (OR 1.54, 95% CI 1.25-1.91). Dislocation remained the most common indication (19.3%), followed by PJI (17.3%) and loosening (17.1%). Both-component (OR:1.45; 95% CI:1.25-1.67) and femoral component only revisions increased; acetabular component only and head/liner exchanges decreased. Acetabular (OR 0.57, 95% CI 0.47-0.70) and head/liner exchange (OR 0.29, 95% CI 0.20-0.43) revisions decreased, while both component exchange (OR 1.45, 95% CI 1.25-1.67) and femoral revisions (OR 1.17, 95% CI 0.99-1.37) increased. Average LOS (-0.68 days; P < .001) and surgeon payments decreased (-$261.8; P < .001) while facility payments increased ($4,211; P < .001). CONCLUSION Indications for revision THA in this database study changed over time, with revision for dislocation decreasing and revision for loosening increasing over time. Both component and femoral revisions increased, and acetabular component and head/liner exchanges decreased. It is possible that these associations could be attributed to a number of details, the method of femoral fixation, surgical approach, and cementing, all of which require additional study.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To synthesize the evidence regarding the effect and safety of drainage after the hip arthroplasty in randomized control trials. BACKGROUND Although the standard of hip replacement has matured in recent years, the need for postoperative drainage is still controversial which also is a clinical problem that needs to be addressed. DESIGN A systematic review and meta-analysis based on the Cochrane methods and Prisma guideline. Data Resources. A systematic search of the Cochrane Library, PubMed, EMBASE, CINAHL, Ovid, Wan Fang database, CNKI, and CBM database was carried out from January 1, 2000, to December, 2021. Review Methods. The quality of included randomized controlled trials was assessed individually by two reviewers independently using criteria recommended in the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions 5.1.0. RESULTS Nineteen randomized control trials involving 3354 participants were included in this analysis. From the above analysis, we can know that compared with nondrainage, there was a statistically significant difference in VAS score on the postoperative first day (SD = -0.6; 95% CI: -0.79, -0.41) and second day (SD = -0.38, 95% CI: -0.58, -0.18), hematocrit reduction (MD =2.89; 95% CI: 1.3, 4.48), blood transfusion rate (OR =1.47; 95% CI: 1.12, 1.92), change of thigh circumstance (SMD = -0.48; 95% CI: -0.66, -0.31), and hospital stay (MD = 1.06; 95% CI: 0.73, 1.39) in drainage. However, there were no statistically significant differences in hemoglobin and hematocrit level, hip function, total blood loss, transfusion volume, dressing use, and complications between them. CONCLUSION Drainage after hip arthroplasty can reduce swelling in the thigh and relieve pain while no drainage can bring down hematocrit reduction, decrease dressing uses, and shorten the hospital stay which promotes rapid recovery. This review provides a detailed theoretical reference for the proper clinical application of drains and improves the efficient use of resources.
