SYNOVIAL FLUID LUBRICATION IN DISEASE: CHARACTERIZATION, MECHANISMS, AND THERAPY [PDF]

, 2020
186 pagesCartilage exhibits remarkable low-friction and low-wear properties, which enable the tissue to withstand decades of repetitive loading cycles in vivo. Though osteoarthritis (OA) pathogenesis is highly variable across patients and multifactorial,

Variation in parrot jaw musculature

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Interspecific morphological differences in some superficial jaw muscles of parrots. Abstract Psittaciformes, the order encompassing parrots and their relatives, are highly diverse and generally known for having a strong beaks used for multiple behaviors. The muscles related to the masticatory apparatus should reflect this functional complexity; however,

Temporomandibular Joint Pain is Negatively Correlated to TNF Alpha and Osteoprotegrin Content in Synovial Fluid in Patients with Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis. [PDF]

, 2014
Objective: Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) involvement occurs in up to 80% of children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). Little is known with regard to the complexity of the protein profile in synovial fluid (SF) from JIA arthritis during growth as

Bite force estimates and morphological correlations of jaw muscles in parrots

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Parrots (Order: Psittaciformes) are renowned for their high bite force (BF) and morphological correlates thereof, including a highly mobile skull and two unique mandibular adductor muscles—m. pseudomasseter and m. ethmomandibularis, with the former being hypothesized to increase force output.

Cytokine Pathways Driving Diverse Tissue Pathologies in Rheumatoid Arthritis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a complex systemic disorder characterized primarily by articular inflammation and destruction with associated functional loss and reduced quality of life. RA is also associated with extra‐articular disease, such as that of the lung, with potentially devastating clinical consequences. The critical importance of comorbidities,

Tissue‐Specific and Spatially Dependent Metabolic Signatures Perturbed by Injury in Male and Female Mice

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Osteoarthritis, the leading cause of disability worldwide, disproportionately affects women, yet sex remains an overlooked determinant. This disparity stems from sex‐specific differences in injury susceptibility—a major risk factor for disease.

Sonographic findings for synovial fluid [PDF]

, 2002
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this pictorial essay was to evaluate the sonographic features of synovial fluid in patients with arthritis. METHODS: Sixty-nine patients with active synovitis (rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, osteoarthritis, septic ...

CD14 Plays a Critical Role in Pain and Inflammation Across Multiple Models of Post‐traumatic Osteoarthritis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective We employed global genetic deletion of CD14 and intra‐articular CD14 blockade across multiple murine osteoarthritis (OA) models that vary in severity of pathology and rate of progression to test the hypothesis that CD14 inhibition attenuates synovial inflammation and associated pain during disease progression.

Preoperative Synovial Fluid Cultures, and Biopsy Cultures After Dry Tap Aspiration, Are Valuable in Diagnosing a Periprosthetic Joint Infection: A Retrospective Study

Microorganisms
Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) is a devastating complication after total hip arthroplasty. Synovial fluid aspiration and preoperative tissue biopsy cultures can be helpful diagnostic tools for PJI.

Tissue Damage in Rheumatoid Arthritis Is Genetically Linked to Low Peptidylglycine Alpha‐Amidating Monooxygenase Activity in Synovial Fibroblasts

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Both susceptibility to, and severity of, rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is associated with the rs26232 C allele. Our primary aim was to identify the biologic mechanism underlying this association. Methods Expression of surrounding genes was compared among rs26232 genotypes.
