Interleukin-6 in Serum and in Synovial Fluid Enhances the Differentiation between Periprosthetic Joint Infection and Aseptic Loosening
The preoperative differentiation between septic and aseptic loosening after total hip or knee arthroplasty is essential for successful therapy and relies in part on biomarkers. The objective of this study was to assess synovial and serum levels of inflammatory proteins as diagnostic tool for periprosthetic joint infection and compare their accuracy with standard tests. 120 patients presenting w...

Bone-resorbing cytokines in serum of patients with aseptic loosening of hip prostheses.
Our aim was to determine if the serum levels of bone-resorbing cytokines (IL-1beta, TNF-alpha, IL-6, GM-CSF) are altered in patients with aseptic loosening of a total hip prosthesis, and if such levels are influenced by the type of implant. We determined cytokine levels in sera from 35 patients before revision for failed total hip arthroplasty and compared them with those in 25 healthy donors. ...
متن کاملComparative Measurement of Rheumatoid Factor in Serum and Synovial Fluid of Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients by ELISA and Latex-Agglutination Test
Rheumatoid factors (RF) are autoantibodies with specificity for the Fc portion of human IgG. Production of RF is a characteristic feature of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and is detectable in high titer in about 90% of these patients. In this study, we measured total IgM, IgA, IgMRF and IgARF in serum and synovial fluid of 45 RA patients by ELISA and the results were compared with those obtained b...
متن کاملSerum and synovial fluid proteins in arthritis.
Synovial fluid is generally considered to be a dialysate of plasma to which mucin has been added during its passage through the synovial membrane (Ropes and Bauer, 1953). The proteins of the serum and synovial fluid have been shown to be qualitatively identical (Schmid and MacNair, 1956) and the concentrations of the various proteins in synovial fluid probably depend upon the following factors:...
