Prevalence of chondrocalcinosis in the temporomandibular joint in patients with chondrocalcinosis of the knee or wrist [PDF]
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of TMJ chondrocalcinosis on head CT scans in patients with chondrocalcinosis of the knee or wrist. Methods and materials: 227 patients with radiological evidence of calcifications on knee or wrist radiographs had a head CT scan obtained for unrelated purposes.

Epidemiology of gout and chondrocalcinosis [PDF]
Gout is the most common cause of inflammatory arthritis affecting at least 1% of the population in industrialized countries. It is closely associated with hyperuricemia and is characterized by formation and reversible deposition of monosodium urate ...

The Association of Diuretics and Proton Pump Inhibitors With Chondrocalcinosis
Objective Hypomagnesemia increases the risk of chondrocalcinosis and calcium pyrophosphate disease. We examined whether the use of drugs that can cause hypomagnesemia, diuretics and proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), increases the risk of chondrocalcinosis ...

Genetics of chondrocalcinosis [PDF]
Rapid developments in genetic analysis have enabled the dissection of a variety of arthropathies that are inherited in a Mendelian manner. These disorders include calcium crystal arthropathies such as calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate deposition (CPPD) disease and hydroxyapatite deposition disease. In CPPD disease, mutations in a recently discovered gene,

Prevalence of Chondrocalcinosis in Patients above 50 Years and the Relationship with Osteoarthritis
Background: Some studies showed a relation between chondrocalcinosis and osteoarthritis (OA). Hence, considering the importance of chondrocalcinosis diagnosis andnecessity for its integration with OA, the current study aims at investigating prevalence of
