Narrowing of knee joint space in patients with pseudogout.
Abnormalities of joint space in knee roentgenograms were compared among 28 symptomatic patients with pseudogout and 2 control groups consisting of spouses of patients and hospital based patients with knee pain. Joint space narrowing was significantly more frequent in the pseudogout patients than in the 2 control groups. Division of patients and controls into 3 age groups revealed a striking deg...
متن کاملComparison of quantitative and semiquantitative indicators of joint space narrowing in subjects with knee osteoarthritis.

METHODS 431 obese women 45 to 64 years old with unilateral radiographic knee osteoarthritis were randomised to 30 months' treatment with doxycycline 100 mg twice daily or placebo. Quant...
متن کاملSerum and synovial fluid levels of chondroitin sulfate in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee joint.
We measured serum and synovial fluid levels of chondroitin sulfate (CS) in patients with osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee joint to clarify whether CS levels differ in various stages of OA, and whether measurement of CS levels is useful in evaluating the pathology of OA. The study population was 117 OA patients and 23 healthy young volunteers. Synovial fluid was obtained from 69 of 117 OA patient...
