Treatment of Staphylococcal Joint Infection in the Rabbit by Administration of Systemic Antibiotics and Intra-articular Corticosteroids

Background/objective: Despite the present routine treatment of septic arthritis with antibacterial agents, articular damage is persistent and frequently leads to loss of joint function.  The aim of this study was to assess the effect of intra-articular corticosteroids added to systemic antibiotics in the treatment of experimental staphylococcal knee joint infection in rabbits. Methods: Thirty r...

Towards Mathematical Model of Ultrasound Propagation in Articular Cartilage

Introduction: Quantitative high-frequency ultrasound has been successfully used for the evaluation of articular cartilage e.g. reveal osteoarthritis related changes. During the degenerative process mechano acoustical properties of cartilage change: surface roughness, collagen and proteoglycan contents, and the density are affected. These changes can be detected as changes in variation of ultras...

Proteoglycan-induced changes in T1rho-relaxation of articular cartilage at 4T.

Proteoglycan (PG) depletion-induced changes in T1rho (spin-lattice relaxation in rotating frame) relaxation and dispersion in articular cartilage were studied at 4T. Using a spin-lock cluster pre-encoded fast spin echo sequence, T1rho maps of healthy bovine specimens and specimens that were subjected to PG depletion were computed at varying spin-lock frequencies. Sequential PG depletion was ind...

Effect of contact stress in bones of the distal interphalangeal joint on microscopic changes in articular cartilage and ligaments.

OBJECTIVE To examine articular cartilage of the distal interphalangeal (DIP) joint and distal sesamoidean impar ligament (DSIL) as well as the deep digital flexor tendon (DDFT) for adaptive responses to contact stress. SAMPLE POPULATION Specimens from 21 horses. PROCEDURE Pressure-sensitive film was inserted between articular surfaces of the DIP joint. The digit was subjected to a load. Fin...

Effect of interleukin 17 on proteoglycan degradation in murine knee joints.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of murine interleukin 17 (IL17) on cartilage catabolism and joint inflammation by direct intra-articular injection of the cytokine into murine knee joints. METHODS Knees of normal C57 Bl mice were injected once or repeatedly with recombinant IL17 or IL1beta. Inflammation was estimated by technetium-99m pertechnetate ((99)Tc) uptake and histological scoring of ...
