Highly cross linked polyethylene liners have better wear properties in hip arthroplasty .
This study has been identified as potentially high impact.
OE's AI-driven High Impact metric estimates the influence a paper is likely to have by integrating signals from both the journal in which it is published and the scientific content of the article itself.
Developed using state-of-the-art natural language processing, the OE High Impact model more accurately predicts a study's future citation performance than journal impact factor alone.
This enables earlier recognition of clinically meaningful research and helps readers focus on articles most likely to shape future practice.
OrthoEvidence Journal (OE Journal) - ACE Report
OE Journal. 2013;1(2):10 J Bone Joint Surg Am. 2011 Apr 20;93(8):716-22.54 patients with symptomatic hip arthritis undergoing hip replacements, receiving a cemented, collarless, polished, tapered femoral component (CPT; Zimmer) and an uncemented acetabular component (Trilogy; Zimmer) were randomized to receive either conventional ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene acetabular liners (Zimmer) or highly cross-linked polyethylene liners (Longevity; Zimmer). The results from this study indicated that Highly cross-linked polyethylene have a significantly lower steady-state wear rate compared with that of conventional ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene.
