BACKGROUND: The use of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) for the treatment of osteoarthritis (OA) has demonstrated mixed clinical outcomes in randomized controlled trials when compared with hyaluronic acid (HA), an accepted nonsurgical treatment for symptom...
BACKGROUND: The use of antibiotic-loaded cement has become a well-accepted method to develop high local antibiotic concentrations in revision surgery of infected arthroplasty. A new surgical technique has been established to further increase the loca...

Gelsolin (GSN) has been implicated in inflammatory reactions in asthmatic patients and may be a marker for acute or chronic reactions in synovial tissue. Detection of increased levels of GSN in synovial fluid could differentiate between aseptic loose...
Knee osteoarthritis (OA) diagnosis is based on symptoms, assessed through questionnaires such as the WOMAC. However, the inconsistency of pain recording and the discrepancy between joint phenotype and symptoms highlight the need for objective biomark...
OBJECTIVES: Primary knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a heterogeneous disease with clinical and molecular contributors. Biofluids contain microRNAs and metabolites that can be measured by omic technologies. Multimodal deep learning is adept at uncovering ...

Objective Based on 25 indicators including immune factors, cell count classification, and smear results of the knee joint fluid, machine learning models were established to distinguish between osteoarthritis (OA) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Method...
OBJECTIVE: Raman spectroscopy is proposed as a next-generation method for the identification of monosodium urate (MSU) and calcium pyrophosphate (CPP) crystals in synovial fluid. As the interpretation of Raman spectra requires specific expertise, the...
