“…It also provides a macro view for future research and reference to assist the choice of research directions, and avoid duplication and omission of important research targets (10). In a previous study, Li et al conducted a global bibliometric analysis from meta-analysis studies to estimate global PJI research (11). The authors found that the main topics on periprosthetic joint infection were alpha-defensin, antibiotic use, risk factors of intra-articular steroid injections, and the location of prosthetic hip and knee infection (11).…”

Background: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) has brought hope to patients with malignant knee joint diseases. Infection is one of the serious complications after TKA, and the purpose of this study was to use bibliometrics to analyze the current research status of infection after this surgery, to unmask any deficiencies with current research, and to provide references for future researchers.Methods: We used the Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-E) database in the Web of Science Core Collection (WOSCC) as the data source, using the search terms "total knee arthroplasty" and "infection" respectively. The "And" operation was performed on the search results of the two subject terms, and the intersection of the two search results was taken as the final search result. CiteSpace software was used to analyze the results. Results:The search results consisted of 5,600 documents, with a total citation frequency of 148,871. The average number of citations for each literature was 26.58, and the h-index was 142. The top five countries in the number of publications were the United States, China, Germany, the United Kingdom, and Spain, while the top five centrally ranked countries were the United States, the Netherlands, Germany, the United Kingdom, and France. The top five institutions with the number of publications were

“…The present study had several limitations. First, our bibliometric analysis was based on the WoS database, which potentially missed several publications from frequently used databases, such as Scopus and PubMed [38,39]. Second, conference proceedings were excluded in the present study, as they could be published twice as a conference abstract and complete journal article [40,41].…”

Objectives: The present study aimed to evaluate the status and trends of robotic orthopedic surgery in a clinical setting using bibliometrics.Methods: All relevant publications on the clinical use of robotic surgery in orthopedics were searched from the Web of Science database. Subsequently, data were analyzed using bibliometrics. Visualizing data of bibliographic coupling, co-citation, and co-occurrence analysis were performed using VOSviewer.Results: In total, 224 clinical studies met the included standards between 2000 to 2019. Global publications presented an increasing annual trend, with the United States found to have the largest number of publications and robotic companies active in the field (n = 99), followed by China (n = 38), and the United Kingdom (n = 27). The institution with the most contributions was the Beijing Jishuitan Hospital in China (n = 14). The most productive scholars were Tian Wei and Mont Michael A, with 14 publications each. The top 30 most cited papers list showed 29 publications to be cited on more than 40 occassions. The journal with the most related and influential publications on robotic orthopedic surgery was the Journal of Arthroplasty. Fourteen types of robots were used, with the majority applied in knee and spinal surgery. MAKO was the most widely used robot in hip and knee surgery and Mazor in spinal surgery. Most studies were small sample populations of low-quality in this field. The top 20 most frequently used keywords were identified from 950 author keywords. Research on orthopedic robots were classified into two clusters by co-occurrence networks: spinal-related robotic surgery and joint-related robotic surgery. Conclusions: The present bibliometric study summarizes the clinical research of orthopedic robots on study type, sample size, type of surgery, robot information, surgical site, most popular keywords, most cited papers, journals, authors, institutions, and countries. These findings may assist the scholars better understand the current status and research trends to guide future practice and directions.

“…A search of the PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science databases was performed for studies that assessed the diagnostic value of the combination of IL-6 and CRP for the diagnosis of PJI between January 1990 and December 2019. The following terms refer to the previous publication and search the following medical subject headings (MeSH) or keywords [12]: "arthroplasty or joint prosthesis or joint replacement or periprosthetic joint or prosthetic joint", "infection or infectious or infected", "interleukin-6 or IL-6", and "C-reactive protein or CRP". The reference lists of the included studies and relevant literature on the combination method of CRP and IL-6 were also manually searched to identify potential studies until no additional articles could be found.…”

Background Because there is no single gold standard method for the diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI), the combination of valuable methods to evaluate infection appears to achieve a better diagnostic result. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the diagnostic value of serum interleukin (IL)-6 and C-reactive protein (CRP) for the diagnosis of PJI. Methods PubMed, Embase, and the Web of Science databases were searched for articles describing PJI diagnosis using serum IL-6 and CRP published between January 1990 and December 2019. Results Eight studies were included in the meta-analysis. The pooled sensitivity was 0.84 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.80−0.88) for the combined method (serum IL-6 and CRP) in series and parallel approaches, 0.87 (95% CI, 0.82−0.90) for IL-6, and 0.84 (95% CI, 0.79−0.88) for CRP. The pooled specificity was 0.85 (95% CI, 0.82−0.88) for the combined method, 0.83 (95% CI, 0.79−0.87) for IL-6, and 0.83 (95% CI, 0.79−0.87) for CRP. The combined method had the highest value for the area under the curve (0.9453), followed by IL-6 (0.9237) and CRP (0.9074). Subgroup analyses showed that the sensitivity of the combined method in parallel tests was higher than that in IL-6 or CRP (94% vs. 89% and 84%, respectively). Serial testing of the combined method showed increased specificity compared to a single indicator (96% vs. 83% and 80%). Conclusion The combination of serum IL-6 and CRP was a reliable tool for the diagnosis of periprosthetic hip and knee infection, demonstrating a better diagnostic accuracy than single marker analysis.
