Calcium pyrophosphate deposition (CPPD) disease – Treatment options

open access: yesBest Practice and Research in Clinical Rheumatology, 2021
In contrast to gout, no disease-modifying therapies currently exist that reduce articular crystal deposition of calcium pyrophosphate crystals (CPPs). Treatment is aimed at ameliorating the inflammatory response and reducing the frequency and severity of clinical symptoms due to CPP deposition (CPPD).

SLAC WRIST IN THE ABSENCE OF RECOGNISED TRAUMA AND CPPD

Hand Surgery, 2010
Purpose: This comparative cohort study was designed to determine whether non-traumatic SLAC wrist exists, and is associated with abnormal carpal bone kinematics (specifically, decreased lunate flexion). Methods: SLAC patients with no recognised history of upper extremity trauma were prospectively compared with an age-matched control group.

Transglutaminase contributes to CPPD crystal formation in osteoarthritis

Frontiers in Bioscience, 2004
Calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate (CPPD) crystals are common components of osteoarthritic joints and correlate with a poor prognosis. Transglutaminase (Tgase) enzymes have been implicated in pathologic mineralization in cartilage; yet, definitive studies linking Tgase activity to CPPD crystal formation in osteoarthritic articular cartilage are lacking ...

CPPD and HADD

2010
Calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate crystal deposition disease (CPPD) and hydroxyapatite crystal deposition disease (HADD) are diseases characterized by deposition of insoluble crystals within the joints and periarticular soft tissues, initiating inflammatory destructive reaction.

CPPD complicating other forms of inflammatory arthritis

Clinical Rheumatology, 2006
Calcium pyrophosphate deposition (CPPD) disease is confirmed as equally common in rheumatoid arthritis by synovial fluid and macroscopic skeletal examination. Furthermore, differential frequencies in rheumatoid arthritis and spondyloarthropathy provide additional insights to the "lumper-splitter" question.

SP0123 How to Evaluate CPPD Using Ultrasound

Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases, 2015
Ultrasonography has been increasingly used the last years for the identification of calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate crystal deposition (CPPD) in joints and has demonstrated to be a reliable and feasible tool in most of the studies published. However, it is common experience between sonographers that in daily clinical practice CPP identification by US ...

Calcium pyrophosphate crystal deposition (CPPD)

2013
Calcium pyrophosphate crystal deposition (CPPD) in articular cartilage is a common age-related phenomenon. Recent important advances in our understanding of the pathophysiology of pyrophosphate metabolism include the identification of a mutation within the ANK gene which associates with familial CPPD, and elucidation of the interleukin-1β‎‎ (IL-1β ...
