What is Early Rehabilitation and Periprosthetic Bone Environment after Primary Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Randomized Controlled Trial about?

## Objective To investigate whether the periprosthetic bone environment could be affected by activity during the early rehabilitation period after primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) and to evaluate the safety and efficacy of activity during the early rehabilitation period. ## Methods This random clinical trial was conducted from January 2017 to July 2017. A total of 22 selected patients with advanced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) who underwent primary unilateral THA were randomized (1:1) to a high activity level group (HA group) or a low activity level group (LA group). The HA group included nine men and two women, aged 53.18 ± 13.29 years. The LA group included five men and six women, aged 55.73 ± 11.73 years. The intervention was different postoperative daily walking distances guided by researchers: 1727.27 ± 564.08 m 0–2 months and 4272.73 ± 904.53 m 3–6 months postoperation for the HA group and 909.09 ± 583.87 m 0–2 months and 2409.09 ± 1068.13 m 3–6 months postoperation for LA group. The primary outcomes were radiographic evaluation (prosthetic stability and stress shielding based on the Engh scale) and bone mineral density (BMD) with a femoral prosthesis (individ
