Comparative 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 کامل25(OH) vitamin D serum values and rheumatoid arthritis disease activity (DAS28ESR)
Background: The role of vitamin D in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis is under investigation. This study was designed to evaluate the correlation between serum values of 25(OH) vitamin D [25(OH)D] and disease activity in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients according to Disease Activity Score 28 joints and ESR (DAS28ESR). Methods: Ninety-nine patients according to ACR classification crit...

متن کاملSerum and synovial fluid adenosine deaminase activity in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, and reactive arthritis.
Adenosine deaminase activity was determined in paired samples of serum and synovial fluid taken from patients with rheumatoid arthritis (n = 12), reactive arthritis (n = 13), and osteoarthritis (n = 7), and the value of this investigation in the diagnosis of synovial swellings was assessed. Increased activity was found in the synovial fluid taken from patients with rheumatoid disease and reacti...
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:...
