OBJECTIVE To identify classifiers in images obtained with sagittal laser optical tomography (SLOT) that can be used to distinguish between joints affected and not affected by synovitis. METHODS 78 SLOT images of proximal interphalangeal joints II-IV from 13 patients with rheumatoid arthritis were compared with ultrasound (US) images and clinical examination (CE). SLOT images showing the spati...
Introduction: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an immune-mediated disease in which synovial inflammatory lesions resemble those found in secondary lymphoid organs. The histopathological characteristics of several synovial tissue specimens from RA patients were compared to the characteristics of synovial samples from patients with osteoarthritis (OA) in order to highlight histological features of RA...
OBJECTIVE To characterize the ultrasound (US) pattern of joint involvement in primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS). METHODS Seventeen patients with pSS, 18 with secondary Sjögren's syndrome (sSS), and 17 healthy controls underwent US examinations of various articular regions. Synovitis (synovial hypertrophy/joint effusion), power Doppler (PD) signals, and erosions were assessed. RESULTS In pati...
OBJECTIVES Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is a term that encompasses all forms of arthritis that begin before the age of 16 years old, persist for more than 6 weeks and are of unknown cause. The ILAR criteria for JIA classification are based on the number of joints involved. The aim of our study was to compare clinical evaluation and ultrasonography (US) in the assessment of joint synoviti...
Hemophilic bleeding into joints causes synovial and microvascular proliferation and inflammation (hemophilic synovitis) that contribute to end-stage joint degeneration (hemophilic arthropathy), the major morbidity of hemophilia. New therapies are needed for joint deterioration that progresses despite standard intravenous (IV) clotting factor replacement. To test whether factor IX within the joi...
Experiments have been carried out to test the feasibility of using cryo-irrigation as a means of ablating the synovium in the rheumatoid knee joint. Cryo-irrigation was performed by a cooling machine and pump, which circulated cold 200/10 centistoke (cSt) silicone through the knee joint of rabbits anaesthetised with intravenous (IV) 'Saffan'. Fluid left the joint at -5 to -10 degrees C. Sixteen...
OBJECTIVE To assess the role of grayscale and power Doppler sonography in short-term monitoring of acute gouty synovitis. METHODS Clinical and sonographic assessments were performed in a patient with gout. Clinical and sonographic evaluations were performed within the first day of the acute onset of synovitis of the first metatarsophalangeal joint of the left foot and 7 and 14 days after the ...
BACKGROUND Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common type of arthritis, causing significant joint pain and disability. It is already a major cause of healthcare expenditure and its incidence will further increase with the ageing population. Current treatments for OA have major limitations and new analgesic treatments are needed. Synovitis is prevalent in OA and is associated with pain. Hydroxychlo...
OBJECTIVE To investigate the hip inflammatory lesions and to evaluate the accuracy of clinical examination compared to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in patients with polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) with pelvic girdle symptoms. Secondary end-point was to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of ultrasonography (US) compared to MRI in the assessment of hip lesions. METHODS Case-control study...
