Well done to all involved @prakrit_kumar @AndyMetOrtho @ChetanKhatri2
MAKO total knee arthroplasty (TKA) may result in better functional outcomes than manual TKA in the medium term. #Orthopedics #Robotics #KneeSurgery #BJO @HKCSearle ow.ly/NKG050XyHuC

🧵1/ New @BoneJointJ: Combining four PROM instruments into a common metric CAT. In this paper, we combined 4 common PROMs: * Oxford Knee Score (OKS) * OKS Activity & Participation Questionnaire (OKS-APQ) * Forgotten Joint Score (FJS) * High Activity Arthroplasty Score (HAAS)

Thanks @BOSTAA_UK for highlighting our latest research. 🔍 46 studies used to assess the recovery trajectory of microfracture, cell expansion therapies (ACI/mACI) and scaffold-based therapy (AMIC).

✅ Microfracture: Peak improvement at 12 months, sustained to 60 months for most scores, except for VAS, KOOS-Pain, Symptoms, and Sport ✅ Cell expansion therapies: Large improvements seen, plateauing around 24 months, with benefits maintained to 60 months — except for Tegner.

✅ Scaffold-based therapies: Consistent improvement observed, but limited long-term data beyond 36 months. Thanks to my co-authors @TheSiddRaj @AliRidhaGorji @ChetanKhatri2 @IAhmedortho @AndyMetOrtho and Nick Smith!

Happy UK Match Day 🙃
Doctors received offers for Radiology training posts at around 3-4pm. They were able to accept these offers on Oriel and received confirmation of acceptance. Offers then began to disappear on Oriel. At 6:30pm they received this email. Simply unacceptable.

While I support @RCPhysicians highlighting issue of Drs left out of training. It very much looks likes this: 2018: *silence* 2019: *silence* 2020: *silence* 2021: *silence* 2022: *silence* 2023: *silence* 2024: *silence* 2025: “oh no! how did this happen?”
In 2024, applications for IMT outstripped the number of posts available by 73%. ‘We risk abandoning a generation of UK medical graduates to an uncertain future. We urgently need to understand why competition ratios are changing so quickly and improve the way we shortlist, interview and appoint doctors in training.’ Chair of our Student Foundation Doctor Network, @SeanCoghlan_, speaks out as we publish a new position statement on competition ratios. In our new position statement, we’re calling on the UK government and NHS England to take this situation seriously and bring forward solutions in time for the 2026 recruitment round: ow.ly/AOpN50V1Qy7

On my 6th Trust Induction as a doctor and I’m learning about something called ‘sepsis’ - has anyone ever heard of this condition?
