The current issue of Arthroplasty Today features original research using data from the American Joint Replacement Registry (AJRR) in the article, “Infection burden in total hip and knee arthroplasties: an international registry-based perspective” by Bryan D. Springer, MD, September Cahue, MPH, Caryn D. Etkin, PhD, MPH, David G. Lewallen, MD and Brian J. McGrory, MD. A poster based on this article was awarded “Best Poster Presentation” at the 6th International Congress of Arthroplasty Registries, the annual meeting of the International Society of Arthroplasty Registries (ISAR). Arthroplasty Today is the official journal of AJRR.
