Correlation of synovial fluid HMGB-1 levels with radiographic severity of knee osteoarthritis.
PURPOSE This study measured high-mobility group box 1 (HMGB-1) levels in serum and synovial fluid (SF) in patients with primary knee osteoarthritis (OA) and correlated these levels with radiographic disease severity. METHODS Seventy-eight OA patients and 30 controls were enrolled in this study. All OA patients were scored according to the Kellgren-Lawrence (KL) grading system. HMGB-1 levels w...
متن کاملCorrelation between sialic acid levels in the synovial fluid and the radiographic severity of knee osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis (OA) is associated with the presence of inflammation. Sialic acid (SA), an acetylated derivative of neuraminic acid, is reported to be a useful biomarker of inflammation. The aim of the present study was to investigate the correlation between SA levels in the serum and synovial fluid (SF) and radiographic severity in patients with knee OA. A total of 234 patients with knee OA wer...
متن کاملSerum and Synovial Fluid Nesfatin-1 Concentration is Associated with Radiographic Severity of Knee Osteoarthritis
BACKGROUND Nesfatin-1, a member of the adipokine family, has been detected in synovial fluid (SF) from OA patients. This study aimed to determine whether there is a marked correlation of nesfatin-1 levels in serum and SF of knee OA patients with the disease severity of OA. MATERIAL AND METHODS This cross-sectional research enrolled 202 knee OA subjects. The Kellgren-Lawrence grading system wa...
متن کاملSerum and Synovial Fluid Levels of CCL18 are Correlated with Radiographic Grading of Knee Osteoarthritis
BACKGROUND Chemokines are involved in the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis (OA). CCL18, a member of the chemokines family, is observed in synovial fluid (SF) of OA patients. The aim of this study was to determine the association between CCL18 levels in serum and SF with radiographic knee OA. MATERIAL AND METHODS This study was conducted in a population of 308 patients with knee OA. The radiolog...
متن کاملDickkopf-1 (Dkk-1) in plasma and synovial fluid is inversely correlated with radiographic severity of knee osteoarthritis patients
BACKGROUND Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common degenerative joint disease causing pain, stiffness, reduced motion, swelling, crepitus, and disability. Dickkopf-1 (Dkk-1) is a critical mediator of osteoblastogenesis and regulates the joint remodeling. The aim of this study was to examine plasma and synovial fluid Dkk-1 levels of patients with primary knee OA and to investigate their relationship wit...
