🚨New REAM ORTHO publication lead by Nithin Gupta and Christian Bowers ! This crucial study is our first step towards implementing frailty tools in clinical practice to improve patient outcomes. josr-online.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

Superb paper & another successful collaboration w/ REAM ORTHO. We have > dozen ortho frailty papers coming this year & this OFRS paper will end up being in the top 10% of ortho cited papers (relative citation ratio. RCR > 4). #frailtyfighters

This has really been a phenomenal partnership with REAM ORTHO. Cross specialty collaborations can be incredibly productive. Medical Student Orthopedic Society OrthopedicsThisWeek Medscape Orthopedics Hurley Medical Inside The Match Michigan Association of Neuro Surgeons

Great work by Nithin Gupta and our team. Orthopedic frailty is a very important yet understudied topic. Nithin has done a tremendous job leading this group!

As I travel home from the AAOS Annual Meeting, I think about the meetings I saw, the medical students and residents that I met, and the networking that I did. It got me to think.... Networking is a two-way street. Building meaningful professional relationships isn’t about asking

Incredible work by Victor Koltenyuk who has been instrumental in our push to introduce the RAI as a frailty metric for use in orthopedic surgery. Just the beginning of powerful collaboration and mentorship with Christian Bowers Bowers Neurosurgical Frailty and Outcomes Lab

NORMALIZE acknowledging #acknowledgements - just bc u help w/ an idea/support of a project, DOES NOT =AUTHORSHIP. The criteria is strict! We will be covering this in depth soon. Congratulations REAM ORTHO ! Only 3 months into 2025c, & a handful of #frailty pubs/acceptances.

Good luck to all the M4’s and a special shout to the future ortho surgeons #orthotwitter

Grateful and blessed to have matched into Internal Medicine at Corewell Health Grand Rapids MSU! Thank you to my whole support system, family and friends for helping make this happen. Looking forward to seeing what the next three years brings! 👨‍⚕️⚕️

Please join me for a practical, straight-to-the-point webinar on systematic reviews, meta-analysis types, and a quick intro to network meta-analysis on May 10th at 11:00 AM E.S.T Would love to have you there! Pascal Jabbour MD, FAANS, FACS, FAHA Jefferson Neurosurgery

The risk analysis index predicts 30-day periprosthetic fracture following primary total hip arthroplasty pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40212940/

As we develop new techniques and management strategies, it’s important to take a step back and recognize where we are headed in terms of fracture epidemiology. In this Journal Of Orthopaedics article, we highlight recent national trends in fracture incidence sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Proud to continue supporting #REAMortho as they define frailty within orthopedics, utilizing the RAI (risk analysis index). These papers provide a critical foundation for future ortho frailty research so that RAI, and not mFI, is used. Great work team! #frailtyfighter

Revision TKA carries significant perioperative risk for healthy patients, while patient-specific factors can further increase risk. We found patients with history of metastasis undergo revision for unique indications and frailty may better assess risk. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/21…

New European Spine J: RAI outperforms mFI-5 in predicting 30-day mortality after thoracolumbar fracture surgery, offering enhanced risk stratification for frail patients. Grateful for the support of Christian Bowers Kishan S. Shah Nithin Gupta Sina Zoghi

New Global Spine Journal: We developed the CGARP score, a novel frailty & nutrition-based risk model for spine surgery. It outperforms existing tools in predicting mortality, complications, LOS & discharge outcomes. Grateful for mentorship from Christian Bowers and the Bowers Neurosurgical Frailty and Outcomes Lab
