* Cox regression stratified by propensity score and also using surgeon volume, site volume, and hybrid fixation versus other as covariates; propensity score model includes body mass index (continuous), age (continuous), gender, race, diabetes, diagnosis, surgeon average volume, fellowship status, site average volume, American Society of Anesthesiologists, and operative time. HXLPE = highly crosslinked polyethylene; HR = hazard ratio; CI = confidence interval.
