The Precision Promise: How an Umbrella Review Clarified What Robotic Assistance Really Delivers in Total Hip Arthroplasty

Robotic-assisted total hip arthroplasty promised greater precision, yet evidence from systematic reviews remained inconsistent. Our umbrella review cut through the overlap and variability to clarify what the technology truly delivers—and where its limits still lie.

The Quiet Disadvantage: Why Orthopaedic Research Keeps Scoring Lower on the Citation Scoreboard

The paper does not claim that orthopaedic research is less important. It claims that the current dominant metric systematically under-represents it. The gap is real. It is structural. And on the evidence of the last decade, it is not closing.
