  1. 16. Radiological measurements in total hip arthroplasty

    Författare :Bariq Al-Amiry; Arkan Sayed-Noor; Torkel Brismar; Seppo Koskinen; Mats Geijer; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Total hip arthroplasty; leg length discrepancy; femoral offset; WOMAC; quality of life; radiographicmeasurements; Kellgren-Lawrence; duration; acetabular cup; inclination; anteversion; BMI;

    Sammanfattning : Every year, about 1 million patients worldwide and 20000 patients in Sweden undergo total hip arthroplasty (THA). This type of operation is considered a successful, safe and cost-effective procedure to regain mobility and restore hip joint function in patients suffering from severe hip joint disease or trauma.

  3. 18. Essays on total factor productivity (TFP)

    Författare :Pontus Mattsson; Jonas Månsson; Lars Behrenz; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; conditional difference-in-difference cDID ; Data Envelopment Analysis DEA ; District courts; Malmquist index; subsidized employment; Total factor productivity TFP ; Törnqvist TFP index; Economics; Nationalekonomi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of two self-contained empirical essays. Essay I investigates the impact of labor subsidies on TFP, and profit per employee is included as a second outcome. Coarsened exact matching (CEM) is performed on the key variables. After matching, a difference-in-difference (DID) model is applied. LÄS MER

  4. 19. Kinematics and fixation of total knee arthroplasties : a clinical, radiographic, scintimetric, and roentgen stereophotogrammetric evaluation

    Författare :Kjell G. Nilsson; Johan Kärrholm; Leif Ryd; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Total knee arthroplasty; tibial component; kinematics; micromotion; loosening; scintimetry; roentgen stereophotogrammetric analysis;

    Sammanfattning : Aseptic loosening of the tibial component is an important cause of failure after total knee arthroplasty. Bone destruction often claimed to be caused by the cement makes the revision difficult. In order to treat younger patients, uncemented fixation has been introduced, but the etiology to loosening is multifactorial and only partly known. LÄS MER

  5. 20. Greater trochanteric pain after total hip arthroplasty : incidence, clinical outcome, associated factors, tenderness evaluation with algometer and a new surgical treatment

    Författare :Arkan Sam Sayed-Noor; Lars Weidenhielm; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :greater trochanteric pain; total hip arthroplasty; leg length discrepancy; algometer; pressure-pain threshold; ilio-tibial band; lengthening; Orthopaedics; ortopedi;

    Sammanfattning : Greater trochanteric pain (GTP) is a regional pain syndrome characterized by lateral hip pain and tenderness. Its incidence after total hip arthroplasty (THA) is variable. LÄS MER
