Gait alterations increase friction of degenerated articular cartilage: A tribological study
Abstract Purpose To investigate the effect of gait alterations associated with osteoarthritis (OA) on the frictional properties of porcine articular cartilage (AC) in intact and degenerative conditions. Methods Forty‐eight cylindrical AC samples were harvested from 12 porcine femur condyles and equally divided between four groups with n = 12 samples ...

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...

Abstract Purpose Data on the reliability of point‐of‐care (POC) tests for the rapid diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infections (PJI) using synovial fluid (SF) D‐dimer (DD), interleukin 6 (IL‐6) and procalcitonin (PCT) are limited. This study aimed to address this issue by evaluating the diagnostic accuracy of POC tests for SF DD, IL‐6 and PCT in ...
