    Abstract Context: Anecdotal experience of Magdalena energy session(s) offers some indication of its health benefits, yet the literature on this new energy healing modality is scarce.
    Objective: To explore the personal experience of recipients of the Magdalena energy session(s).
    Method: In-depth interviews were conducted with 25 generally healthy volunteer adults from around the world who had received at least one Magdalena energy healing session with a certified Magdalena practitioner. Thematic analysis was used to discern patterns in the experience.
    Results: Participants had different motives for attending the Magdalena energy session(s). Clients reported experiencing movement and release of energy, changes in sensation and feeling, and transcendental experience during the Magdalena energy session(s). After the session(s), there were reports of a sustained feeling of lightness, increased positive emotions, increased self-awareness, and deeper spiritual connection. Participants noted the uniqueness of the Magdalena energy session(s) compared to other energy healing practices.
    Conclusion: The findings from this qualitative study suggest that Magdalena energy session(s) can elicit a relaxation response, alter emotions, and increase spiritual connections to facilitate a subjective healing experience. Therefore, the present study recommends further investigations to elucidate variables for a larger-scale intervention study of the effects of Magdalena energy session(s) on health outcomes and the underlying mechanisms of action.

    Abstract Background: Rifampicin is a pillar in the treatment of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI). However, rifampicin resistance is an increasing threat to PJI treatment. This study explores the incidence of rifampicin-resistant bacteria over time in a Swedish tertiary referral centre and the association of rifampicin resistance with infection-free survival after PJI.
    Methods: The study included 238 staphylococcal PJIs treated between 2001 and 2020 for which susceptibility data for rifampicin were available. Data on causative bacteria, rifampicin resistance, treatment, and outcome were obtained. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and Cox regression modelling estimated the infection-free cumulative survival and adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) for the risk of treatment failure.
    Results: Rifampicin-resistant causative bacteria were identified in 40 cases (17%). The proportion of rifampicin-resistant agents decreased from 24% in 2010-2015 to 12% in 2016-2020. The 2-year infection-free survival rates were 78.6% (95% CI, 66.4-93.1%) for the rifampicin-resistant group and 90.0% (95% CI, 85.8-94.4%) for the rifampicin-sensitive group. Patients with PJI caused by rifampicin-resistant bacteria had an increased risk of treatment failure (adjusted HR, 4.2; 95% CI, 1.7-10.3).
    Conclusions: The incidence of PJI caused by rifampicin-resistant bacteria did not increase over the past 20 years. The risk of treatment failure in PJI caused by rifampicin-resistant bacteria is more than four times that caused by rifampicin-sensitive bacteria, highlighting the importance of limiting the development of rifampicin resistance.

    Abstract Background: Increasing attention to patients' rights and their ability to choose their healthcare provider have changed the way patients can respond to untoward, disempowering and abusive healthcare encounters. These responses are often seen as crucial for quality improvement, yet they are little explored and conceptualized.
    Objective: To explore patients' potential responses to untoward healthcare encounters and looking at their possible consequences for care quality improvement as well as for the individual patient.
    Research design: The article is structured looking at two primary strategies: patient exit (leaving a healthcare provider) and patient voice (expressing grievances), derived from Hirschman (1970). These strategies were explored by the use of theoretical and empirical literature and applied to an individual patient case. The case functions as a pedagogical tool to illustrate and problematize what exit and voice strategies can mean for a single patient. Ethical considerations: The patient case is my version of a generalized scenario that is described elsewhere. It does not represent an individual patient's story, but aims to be realistic and recognizable.
    Findings and conclusion: Based on the existing literature, it is hypothesized that, in their current form, exit and voice strategies have a limited effect on care quality and can come at a price for patients. However, both strategies may be of value to patients and providers. Therefore, the healthcare system could empower patients to engage in action and could further develop ways for providers to effectively use patients' responses to improve practice and find ways to prevent patients from untoward experiences in healthcare.

    Abstract Background: Basic epidemiological data on patella fractures derived from large nationwide and multicenter studies are scarce. This observational register study describes patient epidemiology, fracture classification and treatment of patella fractures in adults in a Swedish population.
    Methods: We conducted an observational study on data derived from the Swedish Fracture Register (SFR) on all patella fractures classified as non-periprosthetic and non-pathological, registered between 2014 and 2018 in individuals aged ≥ 18years. Epidemiological data on sex, age, side, seasonal variation, trauma mechanism, fracture classification (according to AO/OTA), and treatment were analyzed.
    Results: 3194 patella fractures were analyzed, occurring at a median age of 67 (range 19-100) years. 64% of all patients were female. Most fractures were caused by low-energy trauma, with 70% due to falling from a standing height. 1796 (56%) of the fractures were transverse compared to 845 (26%) vertical fractures. Most fractures (N=2148, 67%) were treated non-operatively. Operative treatment consisted mainly of Tension Band Wiring (TBW) performed in 774 (24%) patients.
    Conclusions: Patella fractures mainly occur in elderly women (> 65 years), commonly caused by low-energy trauma. The main treatment is non-operative (67%), except for transverse (AO/OTA C3) fractures. TBW remains the most used operative treatment of choice. These results may help health care providers, researchers and clinicians better understand the panorama of patella fractures in Sweden.

    Abstract Background: The risk of revision surgery following total joint arthroplasty (TJA) may be influenced by genetic factors. Therefore, we sought to identify genetic variants associated with the risk of revision surgery in a genomewide association study.
    Methods: We investigated a cohort of 1,130 twins from the Swedish Twin Registry treated with TJA. During a mean of 9.4 years of follow-up, 75 individuals underwent revision surgery for aseptic loosening (the primary outcome) and 94, for any reason (the secondary outcome). Genetic information was collected using the Illumina OmniExpress and PsychArray panels, and the Haplotype Reference Consortium served as the reference for gene imputation. Adjusted Cox regression models were fitted to calculate hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs).
    Results: Nine single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) reached genomewide significance for aseptic loosening. The first SNP, rs77149046, located in the endosome-lysosome associated apoptosis and autophagy regulator family member 2 (ELAPOR2) gene, conferred an HR of 5.40 (CI, 3.23-9.02; p = 1.32×10 -10 ), followed by 4 SNPs within the region coding for sodium-dependent taurine and beta-alanine transporter (SLC6A6), with HRs ranging from 3.35 to 3.43. The sixth SNP, rs7853989 (HR, 3.46; CI, 2.33-5.13; p = 6.91×10 -10 ), was located in a region coding for the ABO blood group system. This SNP has been described as predictive for blood type B. Seven significant SNPs were found for the risk of revision for any reason, with the first 4 again being located in the SLC6A6 region. The leading SNP, rs62233562, conferred an HR of 3.11 (CI, 2.19-4.40; p = 1.74×10 -10 ) for revision surgery. Similar HRs were found for SNPs 3:14506680 (p = 1.78×10 -10 ), rs2289129 (p = 1.78×10 -10 ), and rs17309567 (p = 3.16×10 -10 ). The fifth SNP, rs11120968, was located in the calmodulin-binding transcription activator 1 (CAMTA1) gene (HR, 2.34; CI, 1.74-3.13, p = 1.45×10 -8 ).
    Conclusions: We identified 12 unique SNPs associated with an increased risk of revision surgery. Among these, 2 were in ELAPOR2, which is closely linked to bone formation. Another SNP is located in a gene region encoding for the ABO system, which merits further studies of causal relationships.
