Short-stemmed femoral implants have been used for total hip arthroplasty (THA) in young and active patients to conserve bone, provide physiological loading, and reduce the incidence of thigh pain. Only short- to mid-term results have been presented and there have been concerns regarding component malalignment, incorrect sizing, and subsidence. This systematic review reports clinical and radiological outcomes, complications, revision rates, and implant survival in THA using short-stemmed femoral components. A literature review was performed using the EMBASE, Medline, and Cochrane databases. Strict inclusion and exclusion criteria were used to identify studies reporting clinical and radiological follow-up for short-stemmed hip arthroplasties.Aims

The success of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR)
depends on osseointegration at the graft-tunnel interface and intra-articular
ligamentization. Our aim was to conduct a systematic review of clinical
and preclinical studies that evaluated biological augmentation of
graft healing in ACLR. In all, 1879 studies were identified across three databases.
Following assessment against strict criteria, 112 studies were included
(20 clinical studies; 92 animal studies). Aims
