The purpose of this pilot study was to evaluate the cytokine profile of human knee synovial
fluid and correlate this with the subject's degree of articular cartilage degradation …

The aim of this study was to identify inflammatory mediators of potential clinical relevance in
synovial fluid (SF) samples of patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA). Therefore, radiographic …

Degenerative osteoarthritis (OA) has been associated with elevated synovial fluid cytokines.
It is unclear whether traumatic knee injuries are a trigger to the chemical process that leads …

Concentrations of pro‐and anti‐inflammatory cytokines in synovial fluid samples collected
from patients with chronic meniscal tears were investigated. An acute inflammatory response …

Objective: The objective of this study is to compare inflammatory cytokine levels in primary
knee osteoarthritis (OA) patients and healthy controls. Methods: A total of 32 knee OA …

Background One of the sources of knee pain in osteoarthritis (OA) is believed to be related
to local chronic inflammation of the knee joints, which involves the production of …

Objective To explore potential associations between proinflammatory cytokines in synovial
fluid and progression of osteoarthritis (OA) in meniscectomized subjects. Design We studied …

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a costly and debilitating condition that is typically not diagnosed early
enough to prevent progression of disease. The purpose of this study was to evaluate …

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a debilitating degenerative joint disease particularly affecting
weightbearing joints within the body, principally the hips and knees. Current radiographic …

Objective. To determine whether cytokine/chemokine profiles from synovial fluid and sera
discriminate mild/moderate osteoarthritis (OA) from normal and severe OA cohorts. Methods …
