Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Neck/cup impingement is a serious issue, especially with hard/hard bearings. It can produce noise, locking mechanism failure, and an increase in wear debris and dislocation. The double taper neck used by the author has cogs on the neck/stem taper junction for additional rotational stability. One hundred forty-six procedures were performed using the thin mantle cement technique. Mean follow-up was 5 years (range, 3-8 years). A 32-mm neck was used in 73.8% of cases and a 35-mm neck in 26.2%, because most of the patients were elderly women. The neck was anteverted in 1.4%, neutral in 26.4%, and retroverted in the rest (mild in 34.2%, moderate in 14.3%, and maximum in 13.4%). There were no dislocations and no loosenings. Problems were encountered with the neck/stem taper in 3 cases. The stem was therefore taken off the market. The taper was lengthened and the strength doubled. Since its reintroduction 3 years ago, a further 187 cemented stem procedures have been performed with no failures and no dislocations. Of interest in this series, no necks were anteverted, 23.5% were in neutral, 35.8% were in mild retroversion, 31.1% were in moderate retroversion, and 9.6% were in maximal retroversion. Most necks were placed in retroversion to avoid impingement. This suggests that if a nonmodular neck had been used, some degree of impingement would have occurred in 70% of cases.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
