Familial arthropathies
Familial arthropathy is a descriptive term, comprises a heterogeneous group of disorders. It can be either an inflammatory or a non-inflammatory condition, syndromic or non-syndromic disorder. Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is the most common chronic rheumatic disease in children. However, the underlying genetic background remains poorly understood.

متن کاملIntra-articular pressure profile of the knee joint in a spectrum of inflammatory arthropathies.
OBJECTIVES The intra-articular pressure (IAP) rises significantly after isometric quadriceps contraction in patients with rheumatoid synovitis, a process that may temporarily impede synovial blood flow and cause oxidative injury. In acute traumatic knee effusions (ATE) pressure rises are trivial. This study compared the IAP profiles of patients with ATE with three different populations--an acut...
متن کاملAnalysis of crystals leading to joint arthropathies by Raman spectroscopy: comparison with compensated polarized imaging.
The current study assessed the feasibility of the application of Raman spectroscopy toward the diagnosis of gout and pseudogout. First, the lowest concentrations of monosodium urate monohydrate (MSUM) and calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate (CPPD) crystals detectable by Raman spectroscopy were investigated by mixing known amounts of synthetic crystals with synovial fluid in the concentration range ...
متن کاملThe Measurement of Rigidity in Elbow Joint: An Objective Method for the Evaluation of Parkinson's disease
Introduction: One of the most common syndromes in Parkinson's disease (PD) is rigidity. Currently, an index is used to evaluate the level of PD by the clinical measurement of rigidity in the upper extremity. The index uses a subjective method called Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating System (UPDRS). The subjective nature of this method makes the influence of physician in the measurement of rigi...
متن کاملThe HLA system and the arthropathies associated with psoriasis.
Histocompatibility typing was carried out in 74 patients with psoriasis and an inflammatory arthropathy. In 40 patients with peripheral arthropathy characterized by distal interphalangeal joint involvement, 13 (32-5%) were HLA-B27 positive, significantly higher than the control frequency (P = 5-8 X 10 (-6). 26 of the 40 patients did not have ankylosing spondylitis or radiological sacroiliitis a...
