    Abstract Background and purpose: Use of thromboprophylaxis effectively prevents pulmonary embolism (PE) and deaths after total hip and knee arthroplasty (THA and TKA). The optimum length of thromboprophylaxis is not known and has traditionally been based on the type of operation. Nowadays, a more individualized approach is preferred. This study analyzed if risk stratification-based planning of thromboprophylaxis has an association with the all-cause mortality after fast-track THA and TKA.
    Patients and methods: We compared fast-track THAs and TKAs operated between 2015-2016 and 2020-2021. Between 2015 and 2016, all patients received a routine length of thromboprophylaxis. From 2020 onwards, thromboprophylaxis was planned by risk stratification, and patients at low risk for venous thromboembolism received thromboprophylaxis only during hospitalization. All causes of death within 90 days of surgery were identified and the incidence of mortality was calculated. Mortality rates between the two periods were then compared.
    Results: Between 2015 and 2016, 3192 arthroplasties were performed. A total of eight deaths occurred within 90 days of surgery, yielding an incidence of all-cause mortality of 0.3% (95% CI 0.1-0.5). Between 2020 and 2021, a total of 3713 arthroplasties were performed to patients who received risk stratification-based thromboprophylaxis. Thirteen of these patients died within 90 days of surgery, yielding an all-cause mortality incidence of 0.4% (95% CI 0.2-0.6). Cardiovascular diseases were the main cause of death during both study periods. None of the deaths were caused by PEs.
    Interpretation: Risk stratification-based thromboprophylaxis was not associated with increased all-cause mortality within 90 days of fast-track THA and TKA.

    Abstract Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of primary congenital hypothyroidism (CH) on quality of life, level of education and socioeconomic status (SES).
    Methods: Two independent study cohorts, a national and a regional, were collected from Finnish national registers and patient records. Data on social security benefits, SES, marital status, and education were collected from Statistics Finland. Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) was studied in the regional patient cohort with the standardized 15D and 16D instruments.
    Results: There were no statistically significant differences in education level, marital status, or SES between CH patients (n = 40) and their matched controls at the age of 25 years. The mean 15D score was both statistically significantly and clinically importantly lower in CH patients (n = 29) than controls (0.904 vs. 0.953, p = 0.008). CH patients reported significantly lower scores across various dimensions of physical and mental HRQoL, including breathing, sleeping, speech, excretion, mental function, distress, and vitality. The mean 16D score was lower in CH patients compared to controls (0.917, vs. 0.947), but without statistical significance.
    Conclusion: SES of CH patients did not differ from matched controls. Thus, most CH patients integrate well into society, but their HRQoL is impaired.
    Impact: Most patients with primary congenital hypothyroidism integrate well into society. In the current study, their socioeconomic and marital status did not differ from matched controls at the age of 25 years. However, health-related quality of life measured using 15D instrument was impaired. Every fourth patient reported that congenital hypothyroidism influenced everyday life.

    Abstract Background and purpose: Total hip (THA) and knee (TKA) arthroplasty are effective pain treatment in osteoarthritis; however, there are patients with long-term pain and in need of analgesics. We studied purchases of paracetamol, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), opioids, and neuropathic pain medication before and after THA or TKA.
    Patients and methods: We searched all THA (n = 149,158) and TKA (n = 180,585) cases in Finland between the years 1998 and 2018 and the drug purchases made by patients during 1997-2018 using linked Finnish register data. Drug purchases were studied in 3-month periods.
    Results: The purchases of all analgesics increased from 3 years before operation to 3 months before operation. Around the time of THA or TKA, the purchases of all analgesics spiked to 7-56%, depending on drug. The purchases of all analgesics decreased rapidly during the first 6 months postoperatively. Purchases of paracetamol, NSAIDs, and opioids at 6 months postoperatively (6-23%) were lower than they were at 3 months preoperatively. At 3 years postoperatively, only paracetamol purchases were lower (15-18%) postoperatively than they were 3 years before arthroplasty. NSAID, opioid, and neuropathic pain medication purchases remained higher (4-14%).
    Interpretation: THA and TKA stop and reduce the preoperative increases in purchases of paracetamol, NSAIDs, and opioids. The purchases of pain medications by THA and TKA patients 1 year after operation are close to those in the general population.

    Abstract Methods: Fifty-six (56) patients scheduled for arthroplasty, received 7-day extended-release buprenorphine transdermal patches (5 µg/h) for five consecutive weeks, starting two weeks prior to the surgery. Simultaneous plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples were collected during spinal anesthesia.
    Results: Median buprenorphine plasma and CSF concentrations at steady-state were 54 pg/mL (range 8.6 - 167 pg/mL) and 1.6 pg/mL (0.30 - 7.3 pg/mL), respectively. The median CSF/plasma -ratio was 3% (range 0.35 - 16%). Large between-subject variability was observed in the measured buprenorphine concentrations within the study population.

    Abstract Background: Maternal gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and overweight are associated with an increased risk of obesity and the metabolic syndrome in the adult offspring. We studied the influence of maternal GDM on prepubertal children's body composition and bone mineral biochemistry.
    Methods: A total of 134 prepubertal Caucasian children (age range 4.4-9.7 years) were studied in a controlled cross-sectional study. Seventy-six children had been exposed to maternal GDM and 58 children born after a normal pregnancy served as controls. The outcome variables were body fat %, android fat %, gynoid fat %, android/gynoid fat ratio, bone mineral density (BMD), bone mineral content (BMC), muscle mass, lean mass (LM) and serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D, ionized calcium, phosphate, and alkaline phosphatase concentrations.
    Results: There were no differences in body fat %, android fat %, BMD, BMC, muscle mass, or LM between the study groups. Gynoid fat % was higher in the GDM than control children (p = 0.03). Android fat %, gynoid fat %, and android/gynoid fat ratio were higher in the GDM boys than control boys (p = 0.046, 0.037, and 0.038) respectively, but no differences were found between the GDM and control girls.
    Conclusions: Boys exposed to maternal GDM presented with more unfavorable fat distribution than their controls, whereas no difference was found between the girls. Otherwise, the differences in body composition were minimal between prepubertal GDM and control children.

    Abstract Context: The management of congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI) has improved.
    Objective: To examine the treatment and long-term outcome of Finnish patients with persistent and transient CHI (P-CHI and T-CHI).
    Design: A population-based retrospective study of CHI patients treated from 1972 to 2015.
    Patients: 106 patients with P-CHI and 132 patients with T-CHI (in total, 42 diagnosed before and 196 after year 2000) with median follow-up durations of 12.5 and 6.2 years, respectively.
    Main outcome measures: Recovery, diabetes, pancreatic exocrine dysfunction, neurodevelopment.
    Results: The overall incidence of CHI (n = 238) was 1:11 300 live births (1972-2015). From 2000 to 2015, the incidence of P-CHI (n = 69) was 1:13 500 and of T-CHI (n = 127) 1:7400 live births. In the 21st century P-CHI group, hyperinsulinemic medication was initiated and normoglycemia achieved faster relative to earlier. Of the 74 medically treated P-CHI patients, 68% had discontinued medication. Thirteen (12%) P-CHI patients had partial pancreatic resection and 19 (18%) underwent near-total pancreatectomy. Of these, 0% and 84% developed diabetes and 23% and 58% had clinical pancreatic exocrine dysfunction, respectively. Mild neurological difficulties (21% vs 16%, respectively) and intellectual disability (9% vs 5%, respectively) were as common in the P-CHI and T-CHI groups. However, the 21st century P-CHI patients had significantly more frequent normal neurodevelopment and significantly more infrequent diabetes and pancreatic exocrine dysfunction compared with those diagnosed earlier.
    Conclusions: Our results demonstrated improved treatment and long-term outcome in the 21st century P-CHI patients relative to earlier.

    Abstract Background and purpose - There is lack of knowledge concerning patient-reported long-time outcome after arthroplasty. Therefore, we investigated patient self-reported physical capabilities (PC) and subjective well-being (SW) up to 20 years after total hip (THA) or knee (TKA) arthroplasty.Subjects and methods - The self-reports from postal questionnaires for study checkpoints (baseline, 10-year follow-up, 20-year follow-up) were provided by the Kuopio OSTPRE study including only women aged 52-62 years (n = 6,462). The Finnish Arthroplasty Register and Care Register for Health Care provided data on arthroplasties in the OSTPRE population. The results of women with THA/TKA were compared with women without arthroplasty (control group).Results - In subjects with THA performed before the 10-year follow-up, the proportion of good PC was initially decreased by 0.6 percentage points (pp) at the 10-year follow-up and later by 19 pp at the 20-year follow-up. After TKA, the proportion of subjects with good PC decreased by 4.1 pp (10-year follow-up) and 27 pp (20-year follow-up), respectively. The proportion of controls reporting good PC decreased by 1.4 pp at the 10-year follow-up and 14 pp at the 20-year follow-up compared with the baseline. After THA, the proportion of subjects with good SW stayed on the same level at 10-year follow-up and decreased by 2.3 pp at 20-year follow-up. After TKA, the proportion of good SW increased by 9.0 pp (10-year follow-up) and decreased by 14 pp (20-year follow-up). The proportion of controls reporting good SW increased by 4.0 pp (10-year follow-up) and decreased by 8.8 pp (20-year follow-up).Interpretation - THA and TKA maintain PC and SW. The overall PC and SW are lower in women with arthroplasty, in comparison with controls without arthroplasty. THA seems to outperform TKA in maintaining PC.

    Abstract Background: A rise in the incidence of congenital hypothyroidism (CH) has been reported worldwide. This nationwide study aimed to describe the secular trends and current incidence of CH in Finland.
    Methods: Two independent study cohorts, a national and a regional, were collected from national registers and patient records. The national cohort represents all CH cases born in Finland between 1994 and 2017. Birth data, results of the screening test, and the incidence of CH were reviewed.
    Results: Between 1994 and 2017, 1,400,028 children were born in Finland. Of these children, 503 were diagnosed with primary CH (incidence 1:2783). Male-to-female sex ratio was 1:2.0. The nationwide incidence was 33 cases per 100,000 live births between 1994 and 1999, 38 cases per 100,000 live births between 2000 and 2005, 40 cases per 100,000 live births between 2006 and 2011, and 33 cases per 100,000 live births between 2012 and 2017. In the regional cohort (n = 139), the incidence of transient CH was 3.6%. The incidence of mild, moderate, and severe CH remained constant.
    Conclusions: In Finland, the incidence of CH has not changed during the 24-year study period.
    Impact: As opposed to recent reports worldwide, the incidence of congenital hypothyroidism has not changed between 1994 and 2017 in Finland. The proportions of mild, moderate, and severe congenital hypothyroidism did not change significantly over the study period. Lowering the TSH cut-off limit or increasing immigration did not affect the incidence rate of primary congenital hypothyroidism in Finland.

    Abstract Introduction: Newborn screening of congenital hypothyroidism (CH) has enabled early treatment with levothyroxine (LT4), ensuring normal growth and development. The initial LT4 dose recommendation has increased over decades. We evaluated whether the increased LT4 dosing influenced thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and thyroxine (fT4) concentrations, growth, or treatment-related symptoms.
    Methods: LT4 doses, TSH, fT4, anthropometrics, and treatment-related symptoms until age 2 years were evaluated in 172 Finnish CH patients born between 1980 and 2018. The patients were grouped according to birth decade: 1980s (n = 19, mean LT4 starting dose 6.8 μg/kg/day), 1990s (n = 50, 7.4 μg/kg/day), 2000s (n = 59, 9.7 μg/kg/day), and 2010s (n = 44, 10.8 μg/kg/day).
    Results: TSH concentrations were higher during the first 2 years of life in children born in the 1980s compared to children born later. TSH concentrations were often subnormal in children receiving higher LT4 doses (children born in the 2000s and 2010s). However, symptoms of overtreatment were uncommon. Linear or head growth showed no differences between the groups during the first 2 years of life. Although growth was within the normal spectrum, children in all groups were shorter than their target length at 2 years and their weight-for-length was above the mean through the first 2 years of life.
    Discussion: Current treatment practice with higher LT4 dose normalizes TSH rapidly without significant increase in side effects. However, irrespective of initial LT4 dose, children were shorter than expected at 2 years of age. Effects of different initial LT4 dose on cognitive development urges further investigation.

    Abstract Background and purpose: Manipulation under anesthesia (MUA) is considered to be effective in treating stiffness after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). However, not all patients achieve a satisfactory range of motion (ROM) after MUA. This retrospective study determined the outcome of MUA and identified the factors affecting it.
    Patients and methods: The final sample consisted of 150 MUAs performed on 145 patients. The parameters of interest were ROM and Knee Society Score (KSS) or Oxford Knee Score (OKS). The associations of preoperative, perioperative, and postoperative risk factors with gain in flexion and flexion at post-MUA follow-up (an average of 2 months after MUA) were analyzed using multivariable regression model.
    Results: The mean of 26° (95% CI 23-29) gain in flexion and the mean of 3° (CI 2-4) gain in extension were noticed at post-MUA follow-up when compared with the ROM preceding MUA. The mean post-MUA-FU flexion was 99° (CI 97-102) and the mean post-MUA-FU extension deficit was 4° (CI 2-5). KSS (121 vs. 129) and OKS (29 vs. 28) were similar before and after MUA. The early timing of MUA was associated with better gain in flexion -0.04 (CI -0.08 to -0.01), while we found no association between the timing of MUA and flexion after MUA -0.004 (CI -0.03 to 0.03).
