There’s just not enough time – or enough incentive – to convey and process the gravity of undergoing a joint replacement. The patient is in pain and just wants relief. The surgeon embodies a way out ...

Scientists from ExplantLab have identified a genotype that is associated with joint replacement failure in some patients. Based on these findings, the scientists developed a machine-learning algorithm ...

Medical scientists have discovered a genetic link that shows why some patients develop pain and early failure of their joint replacements. The researchers say the findings, published today in Nature's ...

We’ve long blamed osteoarthritis on “wear and tear,” the price of a life well-lived. But could the cause be a more ancient culprit: a misfired developmental program that once built our skeletons and ...

Background. Late-onset chronic (low-grade) periprosthetic joint infections are often accompanied by unspecific symptoms, false-negative cultures or nonspecific low values of serum biomarkers. This may ...

Skipping any of the basic brazing steps can lead to pipe joint failure. Strong brazed joints in high-pressure pipes are critical to lasting, leak-free performance. However, brazing is not always given ...

Scientists from leading biotech company ExplantLab in Newcastle (UK) have discovered a genetic link to explain why some patients develop pain and early failure of joint replacements. In what is a ...
