5% at a false-positive rate of 4.29% (CI4.17-4.42) with p≤0.01%. In the high-and low-risk subgroups, the prevalence of iECF was comparable 5.08% vs. 5.05%. The frequency of trisomy 21 was 0.39%, 98/24 979 vs 0.16%, 69/44 103. LR+was 3.86 (2.43-5.14) and 2.59 (1.05-4). For both subgroups the association of iECF with trisomy 21 was statistically significant. The prevalence of structural chromosomal anomalies in the second-trimester anomaly scan collective was 0.08% (52/68 967), of which 2 showed an iECF. Conclusion The detection of an iECF at the time of 14+0-21+6 weeks significantly increases the risk for trisomy 21 in the high-risk and in the low-risk subgroups and does not statistically change the risks for trisomy 13/18 or structural abnormalitie.Background Women without cardiovascular disease (CVD) or hypertension at baseline assigned to intervention in the Women's Health Initiative Dietary Modification (DM) trial experienced 30% lower risk of coronary heart disease (CHD), whereas results in women with hypertension or prior CVD could have been confounded by postrandomization use of statins. Objectives Intervention participants reported various self-selected changes to achieve the 20% total fat goals. Reviewed are intervention compared with comparison group HRs for CHD, stroke, and total CVD in relation to specific dietary changes in normotensive participants. Methods Dietary change was assessed by comparing baseline with year 1 FFQ data in women (n = 10,371) without hypertension or CVD at baseline with intake of total fat above the median to minimize biases due to use of the FFQ in trial eligibility screening. Results Intervention participants self-reported compensating reduced energy intake from total fat by increasing carbohydrate and protein. Spec.org/about/SitePages/Dietary%20Trial.aspx.

These topics include venous thromboprophylaxis, tranexamic acid usage, tourniquet usage, and wound closure techniques. Methods For each individual topic, a literature search was conducted on several databases with emphasis on studies that were published in the past 5 years. Preference was given to meta-analyses and randomized controlled trials. Results Tranexamic acid is a safe and effective treatment modality, and consideration should be given to use multiple doses and combine different modes of administration. Certain treatment modalities (skin sutures, limited or no tourniquet usage) can cause greater patient satisfaction at a cost of longer operating times. Postoperative anticoagulation is still a very controversial topic. There is however some evidence suggesting prolonging anticoagulation to 35 days postoperative. Conclusions By analyzing the results of the aforementioned studies, surgeons can implement the most up-to-date evidence-based care when doing total knee arthroplasty surgery. However, many of these selected topics continue to have a component of ongoing controversy with no definitive conclusions developed in recent literature. Copyright © 2020 The Authors.

Methods Using a large commercial claims data set, we studied postoperative opioid prescribing after selected common surgical procedures between 1994 and 2014. For each procedure and year, we calculated the mean postoperative morphine milligram equivalents (MME) filled on the index prescription and assessed the proportion of patients who filled a high-dose prescription (≥350 MME). We reported changes in postoperative opioid prescribing over time and identified predictors of filling a high-dose postoperative opioid prescription. Results We identified 1,321,264 adult patients undergoing selected common surgical procedures between 1994 and 2014, of whom 80.3% filled a postoperative opioid prescription. One in five surgery patients filled a high-dose postoperative opioid prescriptiogery patients. Copyright © 2020 The Authors.

In this article, we present a case of a 26-year-old woman who presented with swelling at the left lower ribs during pregnancy. Surgical excision was done, and histopathology showed tumor with features consistent with GCTB. MRI preformed after delivery revealed recurrence of the mass with extensive growth reaching 17 cm with two subcutaneous satellite nodules in the adjacent abdominal wall. positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) scan revealed bilateral fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-avid lung nodules. Surgical resection was done, and histopathology showed no evidence of malignant transformation. Few months later, the tumor recurred again, with peritoneal deposits. The patient underwent wide massive resection of the recurrent mass and then started on denosumab therapy. Molecular analysis of the tumor detected H3F3A G34W mutation with no copy number alterations. We are presenting this case of GCTB with pulmonary distant metastasis and extrapulmonary seeding to upsurge awareness among clinicians about the possible extreme aggressive biological behavior of GCTB that can mimic the presentation of malignant bone tumor and also to discuss the possible predictive factors of such aggressive behavior.

Purpose (1) To perform a survey that determines subspecialties female orthopaedic surgeons select and (2) to analyze the motivations behind their choices. Methods A 10-question survey was distributed via e-mail to the Ruth Jackson Orthopaedic Society (RJOS), Texas Orthopaedic Association (TOA), and to a private internet page for women in Orthopaedics, which covered the area of subspecialty practice, motivations, and demographic data. Practicing female orthopaedic surgeons, fellows, or fellowship-matched residents were included. Respondents' ranked motivations when deciding for or against a subspecialty were analyzed and comparisons made. Results Of the 304 survey responses, 288 met inclusion criteria. The most common subspecialties were hand (24.0%), pediatrics (22.6%), and sports medicine (16.3%). A higher proportion of younger surgeons are electing to subspecialize in sports medicine, whereas a lower proportion of younger surgeons are pursuing general orthopaedics. Top-ranked reasons for selecting a subspecialty were personal satisfaction (50.8%), intellectual stimulation (42.1%), and strong mentorship (37.4%). The most common reason for not selecting a subspecialty was lack of interest (60.6%). Conclusion Strong mentorship was the largest extrinsic/modifiable factor that affected the decision-making process. A continued focus on mentorship will be necessary to encourage future female orthopaedic surgeons to enter this field and inspire them to explore a different set of subspecialties.

The most likely source of his infection was due to an anastomotic leak after a bariatric surgery done 6 months before TKA. There is a growing focus on stratifying the risk of PJI after TKA. Hematogenous seeding of enteric bacteria leading to PJI is an unexplored risk that will become more prevalent as bariatric procedures before TKA continue to increase in frequency. We present a patient who demonstrates this PJI risk with a rare microbe (E cloacae). Copyright © 2020 The Authors.

Methods Fifty children (malefemale, 2723) with knee coronal plane deformities (kneesphyses, 8699), (varumvalgum, 5135) secondary to nutritional rickets were subjected to femoral and/or tibial temporary hemiepiphysiodesis using a two-hole 8-plate. The mean age at implantation was 3.8 ± 1.5 years (range 2.5 to 5). The mean follow-up was 2.8 years (range 2 to 4). All children received a standing full-length AP radiographs of both lower limbs in neutral rotation to measure the mechanical axis deviation, tibiofemoral angle, and joint orientation angles. Tibial torsion was objectively assessed by measuring the bimalleolar axis.
