Synovial fluid neutrophils in oligoarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis have an altered phenotype and impaired effector functions

Arthritis Research & Therapy, 2021
Background Neutrophils are the most prevalent immune cells in the synovial fluid in inflamed joints of children with oligoarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA).

Osteoarthritic Synovial Fluid Modulates Cell Phenotype and Metabolic Behavior In Vitro

Stem Cells International, 2019
Synovial fluid holds a population of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) that could be used for clinical treatment. Our goal was to characterize the inflammatory and metabolomic profile of the synovial fluid from osteoarthritic patients and to identify its ...

Serum and Synovial Fluid Interleukin-6 for the Diagnosis of Periprosthetic Joint Infection

Scientific Reports, 2017
A gold standard for diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) has not yet been established. The objective of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic value of serum and synovial fluid interleukin (IL)-6 levels for PJI.

Rapid Aggregation of Staphylococcus aureus in Synovial Fluid Is Influenced by Synovial Fluid Concentration, Viscosity, and Fluid Dynamics, with Evidence of Polymer Bridging

mBio, 2022
Early bacterial survival in the postsurgical joint is still a mystery. Recently, synovial fluid-induced aggregation was proposed as a potential mechanism of bacterial protection upon entry into the joint. As synovial fluid is secreted back into the joint

Rheumatoid Arthritis Synovial Fluid Neutrophils Drive Inflammation Through Production of Chemokines, Reactive Oxygen Species, and Neutrophil Extracellular Traps

Frontiers in Immunology, 2020
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disorder affecting synovial joints. Neutrophils are believed to play an important role in both the initiation and progression of RA, and large numbers of activated neutrophils are found within both ...

SYNOVIAL AND SERUM LEVELS OF OSTEOCALCIN, OSTEOPROTEGERIN AND Β-CROSSLAPS IN PATIENTS WITH CALCIUM PYROPHOSPHATE DEPOSITION DISEASE [PDF]

Romanian Journal of Rheumatology, 2019
Background. Calcium pyrophosphate deposition disease is defined by deposition of calcium pyrophosphate crystals in hyaline cartilage, fibrocartilage and soft tissues. The study of bone markers is of great interest in different types of arthritis.

Comparison of Synovial Fluid Composition in Distended and Normal Digital Flexor Tendon Sheath of Horses (A Pilot Study) [PDF]

Iranian Journal of Veterinary Surgery, 2021
Diagnosis of tenosynovitis is usually confirmed on the basis of synovial fluid analysis (such as cytological and biochemical examinations). This study was designed to examine biochemical (serum amyloid A (SAA), haptoglobin (Hp) and D-dimer) and ...

Effect of Significant Parameters on Squeeze Film Characteristics in Pathological Synovial Joints

Mathematics, 2023
Synovial joints are unique biological tribo-systems that allow for efficient mobility. Most of the synovial joint activities in the human body are accomplished due to the presence of synovial fluid.

Investigation of synovial fluid induced Staphylococcus aureus aggregate development and its impact on surface attachment and biofilm formation

PLoS ONE, 2020
Periprosthetic joint infections (PJIs) are a devastating complication that occurs in 2% of patients following joint replacement. These infections are costly and difficult to treat, often requiring multiple corrective surgeries and prolonged antimicrobial

Thermogenic diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infection by microcalorimetry of synovial fluid

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2020
Background Synovial fluid culture is the standard investigation for the preoperative diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI). However, the culture has limited sensitivity and requires several days until result.
