Targeted Versus Shotgun Metagenomic Sequencing-based Detection of Microorganisms in Sonicate Fluid for Periprosthetic Joint Infection Diagnosis

Hyo Lim Hong et al.

Summary: This study compared the performance of 16S rRNA gene-based targeted metagenomic sequencing (tNGS) and shotgun metagenomic sequencing (sNGS) in detecting and identifying pathogens in sonicate fluid from failed total hip arthroplasty (THA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The study found that tNGS had a higher positive percent agreement with sonicate fluid culture compared to sNGS, and detected potential pathogens in culture-negative PJIs. The study concludes that tNGS is a potential diagnostic tool for identifying PJI pathogens in sonicate fluid, with similar performance characteristics to sNGS.

Evaluation of Serum Albumin and Globulin in Combination With C-Reactive Protein Improves Serum Diagnostic Accuracy for Low-Grade Periprosthetic Joint Infection

Hyonmin Choe et al.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate whether serum immune markers can improve the diagnostic accuracy of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI). The results showed that albumin, globulin, albumin-globulin ratio (AGR), and combination indices with CRP have potential value in improving preoperative serum diagnosis for PJI.

Application of 68Ga-citrate PET/CT for differentiating periprosthetic joint infection from aseptic loosening after joint replacement surgery

T. Xu et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the utility of 68Ga-citrate PET/CT in differentiating PJI and AL, and compared it with 99mTc-MDP bone scan. The results showed that AC60 minutes and non-AC60 minutes of PET/CT had the same highest sensitivity and specificity, and AC60 minutes combined with SPECT/CT could further improve diagnostic efficiency.

Detecting and Monitoring Periprosthetic Joint Infection by Using Electrical Bioimpedance Spectroscopy: A Preliminary Case Study

Marco Balato et al.

Summary: This article presents a method for detecting infection after total joint arthroplasty using Electrical Bioimpedance Spectroscopy. The method provides low latency, non-invasiveness, and affordability compared to current techniques. Experimental measurements on a patient with bilateral knee arthroplasty showed that the predicted healing trend based on impedance magnitude spectrum matched the clinical and laboratory results. The patient fully recovered one month after the last measurement, confirming the accuracy of the Electrical Bioimpedance Spectroscopy technique.

Summary: Established serum inflammatory markers such as serum C-reactive protein and fibrinogen showed the best accuracies in diagnosing periprosthetic joint infections. Novel biomarkers, such as platelet count to mean platelet volume ratio, also demonstrated promising results. Specificity and sensitivity varied among different markers, with CRP and fibrinogen having higher sensitivity and specificity compared to other markers.

Projected Economic Burden of Periprosthetic Joint Infection of the Hip and Knee in the United States

Ajay Premkumar et al.

Summary: Based on the latest data, the annual hospital costs related to PJI of the hip and knee are estimated to reach $1.85 billion by 2030. The growth in costs is mainly due to increases in volume, while the incidence of PJI and cost per case remained relatively constant from 2002 to 2017. Efforts to develop effective preventive strategies are urgently needed to reduce rates of PJI after total hip and knee arthroplasty.
