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.

False-Negative Rate of Gram-Stain Microscopy for Diagnosis of Septic Arthritis: Suggestions for Improvement

International Journal of Microbiology, 2014
We quantify the false-negative diagnostic rate of septic arthritis using Gram-stain microscopy of synovial fluid and compare this to values reported in the peer-reviewed literature.

RELATION BETWEEN SYNOVIAL JOINT AND FIBRINOLYTIC ACTIVITY OF SYNOVIAL FLUID [PDF]

, 1966
In rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis it is observed that the streptokinase-added fibrinolytic activity of the synovial fluid is higher than the normal value and the inhibitor is increased.

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,

Coupling mechanism of bioinspired artificial composite synovial fluid on the tribological behavior of artificial joints

Friction
Changes in the components of synovial fluid in the human body have an important influence on the tribological behavior of artificial joints. Based on the concentration of components in the synovial fluid after arthroplasty, “hard−soft” joint pair ...

Influence of Synovial Fluid Pressure on Biphasic Lubrication Property in Articular Cartilage

Tribology Online, 2018
The influence of synovial fluid pressure in wedge-film gap on the biphasic lubrication property of articular cartilage during sliding motion has not been discussed in previous studies.

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.

Behavioral Incentives for Exercise and Intra‐Articular Glucocorticoids for Knee Osteoarthritis: Results From a Factorially Designed Pragmatic Randomized Clinical Trial

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective The purpose of this study was to determine the benefit of a behaviorally designed incentive program and glucocorticoid injections in reducing symptoms and promoting physical activity in patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA). Methods This was a pragmatic, multisite, factorially designed, blinded, randomized clinical trial.

Calgizzarin (S100A11): a novel inflammatory mediator associated with disease activity of rheumatoid arthritis

Arthritis Research & Therapy, 2017
Background Calgizzarin (S100A11) is a member of the S100 protein family that acts in different tumors by regulating a number of biologic functions. Recent data suggest its association with low-grade inflammation in osteoarthritis (OA).
