RESUMEN

PURPOSE: To analyze the effects of surgeon-specific factors, including case volume, career duration, fellowship training, practice type, and region of practice, on rates of 2-year revision surgery, conversion to total hip arthroplasty (THA), and 90-day hospitalizations following hip arthroscopy. METHODS: The PearlDiver Mariner Database was used to query patients undergoing hip arthroscopy between 2015 and 2018. Surgeons performing these procedures were identified, and surgeon-specific demographics and variables were collected from publicly available data. Patients were followed for 2 years to assess for reoperations, including revision hip arthroscopy and conversion to THA, as well as 90-day hospitalizations, including emergency department visits and hospital readmissions. International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision codes were used to track the laterality of revision hip procedures. Associations between surgeon-specific factors and postoperative outcomes were assessed through univariate and multivariate analyses. RESULTS: In total, 20,834 patients underwent hip arthroscopy procedures by 468 surgeons. Multivariate analysis with logistic regression adjusted for patient-related factors (age, sex, obesity, Charlson Comorbidity Index, and smoking status) identified increasing surgeon case volume to be associated with increased risk for 2-year revision hip arthroscopy (P < .001), but not 2-year conversion to THA or 90-day hospitalizations. Nonsports medicine fellowship-trained surgeons were associated with greater risk for 2-year THA conversion (P < .001) and 90-day hospital readmissions (P < .01). Surgeons practicing in an academic setting demonstrated greater risk for 90-day hospital readmissions (P < .001). Surgeons practicing in the West region of the United States were more likely to incur 2-year revision hip arthroscopy procedures compared to surgeons in the South, Midwest or Northeast (P < .001). CONCLUSIONS: Increasing surgeon hip arthroscopy case volume is associated with an increased risk for 2-year revision hip arthroscopy but not conversion to THA or 90-day hospitalizations. Further, non-sports medicine fellowship-trained surgeons were associated with higher risk for 2-year THA conversion after hip arthroscopy. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level III, retrospective cohort analysis.

RESUMEN

Diabetic retinopathy is the most common microvascular complication of diabetes and is a major cause of blindness, but an understanding of the pathogenesis of the disease has been hampered by a lack of accurate animal models. Here, we explore the dynamics of retinal cellular changes in the Nile rat (Arvicanthis niloticus), a carbohydrate-sensitive model for type 2 diabetes. The early retinal changes in diabetic Nile rats included increased acellular capillaries and loss of pericytes that correlated linearly with the duration of diabetes. These vascular changes occurred in the presence of microglial infiltration but in the absence of retinal ganglion cell loss. After a prolonged duration of diabetes, the Nile rat also exhibits a spectrum of retinal lesions commonly seen in the human condition including vascular leakage, capillary non-perfusion, and neovascularization. Our longitudinal study documents a range and progression of retinal lesions in the diabetic Nile rat remarkably similar to those observed in human diabetic retinopathy, and suggests that this model will be valuable in identifying new therapeutic strategies.

RESUMEN

Background: Given the complexity of arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (ARCR) and increasing prevalence, there is a need for comprehensive, large-scale studies that investigate potential correlations between surgeon-specific factors and postoperative outcomes after ARCR. This study examines how surgeon-specific factors including case volume, career length, fellowship training, practice setting, and regional practice impact two-year reoperation rates, conversion to total shoulder arthroplasty (anatomic or reverse), and 90-day post-ARCR hospitalization. Methods: The PearlDiver Mariner database was used to collect surgeon-specific variables and query patients who underwent ARCR from 2015 to 2018. Patient outcomes were tracked for two years, including reoperations, hospitalizations, and International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision codes for revision rotator cuff repair (RCR) laterality. Hospitalizations were defined as any emergency department (ED) visit or hospital readmission within 90 days after primary ARCR. Surgeon-specific factors including surgeon case volume, career length, fellowship training, practice setting, and regional practice were analyzed in relation to postoperative outcomes using both univariate and multivariate logistic regression. Results: 94,150 patients underwent ARCR by 1489 surgeons. On multivariate analysis, high-volume surgeons demonstrated a higher risk for two-year total reoperation (odds ratio [OR] = 1.06, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.01-1.12, P = .03) and revision RCR (OR = 1.06, 95% CI: 1.01-1.12, P = .02) compared to low-volume surgeons. Early-career surgeons showed higher rates of 90-day ED visits (mid-career surgeons: OR = 0.78, 95% CI: 0.73-0.83, P < .001; late-career surgeons: OR = 0.73, 95% CI: 0.68-0.78, P < .001) and hospital readmission (mid-career surgeons: OR = 0.74, 95% CI: 0.63-0.87, P < .001; late-career surgeons: OR = 0.73, 95% CI: 0.61-0.88, P = .006) compared to mid- and late-career surgeons. Sports medicine and/or shoulder and elbow fellowship-trained surgeons demonstrated lower two-year reoperation risk (OR = 0.95, CI: 0.91-0.99, P = .04) and fewer 90-day ED visits (OR = 0.93, 95% CI = 0.88-0.98, P = .002). Academic surgeons experienced higher readmission rates compared to community surgeons (OR = 1.16, 95% CI = 1.01-1.34, P = .03). Surgeons practicing in the Northeast demonstrated lower two-year reoperation (OR = 0.88, 95% CI: 0.83-0.93, P < .001) and revision (OR = 0.88, 95% CI: 0.83-0.94, P < .001) RCR risk compared to surgeons in the Southern United States. Conclusion: High-volume surgeons exhibit higher two-year reoperation rates after ARCR compared to low-volume surgeons. Early-career surgeons demonstrate increased hospitalizations. Sports medicine or shoulder and elbow surgery fellowships correlate with reduced two-year reoperation rates and 90-day ED visits.

RESUMEN

Diabetic retinopathy is a common complication of long-term diabetes and that could lead to vision loss. Unfortunately, early diabetic retinopathy remains poorly understood. There is no effective way to prevent or treat early diabetic retinopathy until patients develop later stages of diabetic retinopathy. Elevated acellular capillary density is considered a reliable quantitative trait present in the early development of retinopathy. Hence, in this study, we interrogated whole retinal vascular transcriptomic changes via a Nile rat model to better understand the early pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy. We uncovered the complexity of associations between acellular capillary density and the joint factors of blood glucose, diet, and sex, which was modeled through a Bayesian network. Using segmented regressions, we have identified different gene expression patterns and enriched Gene Ontology (GO) terms associated with acellular capillary density increasing. We developed a random forest regression model based on expression patterns of 14 genes to predict the acellular capillary density. Since acellular capillary density is a reliable quantitative trait in early diabetic retinopathy, and thus our model can be used as a transcriptomic clock to measure the severity of the progression of early retinopathy. We also identified NVP-TAE684, geldanamycin, and NVP-AUY922 as the top three potential drugs which can potentially attenuate the early DR. Although we need more in vivo studies in the future to support our re-purposed drugs, we have provided a data-driven approach to drug discovery.
