چکیده

Chronic synovitis developed in the dorsal extensor sheath of the hand of a 25-year-old manufacturer of fibre glass reinforced boats and surfboards . Particles found in synovial fluid aspirates were similar in morphology and elemental content to unused fibre glass and particles found in dust from the workshop floor. It was concluded that hard disc grinding required during manufacture resulted in percutaneous implantation of small glass particles, leading to chronic synovitis and effusion.

The clinical, arthroscopic and histological findings after replacement of the anterior cruciate ligament with carbon-fibre.

Thirty-nine patients underwent reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament with carbon-fibre and a MacIntosh repair; all had a negative pivot shift test after operation. Some patients had persistent pain, mild effusion and synovial thickening; in 10 of these patients the symptoms warranted arthroscopic examination and biopsy at a mean of 16.9 months after the repair. Arthroscopy revealed t...

Effect of three animal models of inflammation on nerve fibres in the synovium.

OBJECTIVES Both sensory and sympathetic nerve fibres are depleted in the synovium in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The hypothesis that the induction of an inflammatory response in the synovium is capable of causing depletion of nerve fibres was tested. METHODS To investigate this phenomenon experimental arthritis in the rat was induced by three different methods and the synovium was examined for...

Glass Fibre Strength—A Review with Relation to Composite Recycling

The recovery and reuse of glass fibres from manufacturing waste and end-of-life composites in an environmentally-friendly, cost-effective manner is one of the most important challenges facing the thermosetting polymer composites industry. A number of processes for recycling fibres from such materials are available or under development. However, nearly all options deliver recycled glass fibres t...

Characterization of Glass Fibre – Coconut Coir– Human Hair Hybrid Composites

A composite material is a combination of two or more materials arranged in the form of layer one on the other layer using binding material through some prescribed methods. In the Glass fibre coconut fibre human hair hybrid composite method, the epoxy resin is used as binding material, in which one layer is formed of glass fibre, followed by coconut fibre and then by human hair. By using hand la...
