Abstract: We introduce a resonating viscosity-density sensor array measurement setup for the characterization of synovial fluid, the joint-lubricant in humans and animals, in an isolated and ...

Synovial fluid will show very low glucose (<25% of simultaneous plasma glucose) and very high lactate (>10mm/l) in the untreated bacterial septic joint. Of course, gonococcus should be considered.

Dr Rob Sillevis from Florida Gulf Coast University discusses his research on the clinical significance of joint sounds and ...

In healthy synovial fluid (ICRS-score < 1) hyaluronan showed a slower diffusion (2.2 μm2/s, N = 5) than in samples from patients with joint damage (ICRS-score > 2) (4.5 μm2/s, N = 16). More strikingly ...

In paired plasma and synovial fluid samples of patients with JIA, significantly higher levels of interleukin (IL)6, IL15, CCL2, CCL3, CXCL8, CXCL9 and CXCL10 were present in synovial fluid. Cluster ...

TUAM, Ireland (WKRC) — The remains of nearly 800 infants and children are expected to be found inside a hidden septic tank at a home for unwed mothers. Long-awaited excavation work began Monday ...

Background: Isolated, primary synovial fibroblasts generate active glucocorticoids through expression of 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11β-HSD1). This enzyme produces cortisol from inactive ...

We performed non-parametrical tests to compare groups (septic arthritis (SA), juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) and arthritis with no definitive diagnosis). The time before ... High levels of ...

Metastatic/locally advanced synovial sarcomas have traditionally been associated with poor outcomes with a median survival of 18 months. 4 The median PFS with first-line anthracyclines is around 4-6 ...
