Joint replacement registries in the United States: a new paradigm.
This commentary serves as an introduction to an upcoming series of articles about orthopaedic registries, in general, with an emphasis on lessons learned from the evolving U.S. and international total joint replacement registries. Specifically, this paper provides an overview of total joint replacement registries and the current expansion of data collection beyond implant attributes and survival to include postoperative complications and patient-reported outcomes.

Vaccinations for rheumatoid arthritis.
The goal of this paper is to highlight the most recent literature on the key vaccines and the specific considerations for the rheumatologist and their rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients, with a particular focus on influenza, pneumococcal, and herpes zoster vaccines. It is important for rheumatologists to understand which vaccines are live and what potential contraindications exist for giving vaccines to RA patients.

English language proficiency, health literacy, and trust in physician are associated with shared decision making in rheumatoid arthritis.
The objective of this study was to examine patterns of perceived communication around decision making in 2 cohorts of adults with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The investigators found that nearly one-third of subjects reported suboptimal shared decision making communication (SDM) with their clinicians, regardless of cohort. Lower trust in physician was independently associated with suboptimal SDM communication in both cohorts.

Systematic review of tumor necrosis factor inhibitor discontinuation studies in rheumatoid arthritis.
The objective of this article is to conduct a systematic review of the available literature on discontinuation of anti-tumor necrosis factor (anti-TNF) agents in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients and the associated features of study designs, including eligibility criteria, outcome definitions, and outcomes of discontinuation. The authors concluded that discontinuation of anti-TNF therapy is achievable for many RA patients who start in clinical remission or low disease activity.
