Inflammation of a synovial membrane. It is usually painful, particularly on motion, and is characterized by a fluctuating swelling due to effusion within a synovial sac. (Dorland, 27th ed)
Motifs in DNA- and RNA-binding proteins whose amino acids are folded into a single structural unit around a zinc atom. In the classic zinc finger, one zinc atom is bound to two cysteines and two histidines. In between the cysteines and histidines are 12 residues which form a DNA binding fingertip. By variations in the composition of the sequences in the fingertip and the number and spacing of tandem repeats of the motif, zinc fingers can form a large number of different sequence specific binding sites.
The joint that is formed by the distal end of the RADIUS, the articular disc of the distal radioulnar joint, and the proximal row of CARPAL BONES; (SCAPHOID BONE; LUNATE BONE; triquetral bone).
Inflammation of the synovial lining of a tendon sheath. Causes include trauma, tendon stress, bacterial disease (gonorrhea, tuberculosis), rheumatic disease, and gout. Common sites are the hand, wrist, shoulder capsule, hip capsule, hamstring muscles, and Achilles tendon. The tendon sheaths become inflamed and painful, and accumulate fluid. Joint mobility is usually reduced.
Projection of near-IR light (INFRARED RAYS), in the 700-1000 nm region, across an object in parallel beams to an array of sensitive photodetectors. This is repeated at various angles and a mathematical reconstruction provides three dimensional MEDICAL IMAGING of tissues. Based on the relative transparency of tissues to this spectra, it has been used to monitor local oxygenation, brain and joints.
Also known as articulations, these are points of connection between the ends of certain separate bones, or where the borders of other bones are juxtaposed.
A progressive, degenerative joint disease, the most common form of arthritis, especially in older persons. The disease is thought to result not from the aging process but from biochemical changes and biomechanical stresses affecting articular cartilage. In the foreign literature it is often called osteoarthrosis deformans.
The distal part of the arm beyond the wrist in humans and primates, that includes the palm, fingers, and thumb.
A chronic systemic disease, primarily of the joints, marked by inflammatory changes in the synovial membranes and articular structures, widespread fibrinoid degeneration of the collagen fibers in mesenchymal tissues, and by atrophy and rarefaction of bony structures.

Assessment of mutilans-like hand deformities in chronic inflammatory joint diseases. A radiographic study of 52 patients. (1/309)

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate patients with mutilans-like hand deformities in chronic inflammatory joint diseases and to determine radiographic scoring systems for arthritis mutilans (AM). METHODS: A total of 52 patients with severe hand deformities were collected during 1997. A Larsen hand score of 0-110 was formed to describe destruction of the hand joints. Secondly, each ray of the hand was assessed individually by summing the Larsen grade of the wrist and the grades of the MCP and PIP joints. When the sum of these grades was > or = 13, the finger was considered to be mutilated. A mutilans hand score of 0-10 was formed according to the number of mutilans fingers. Surgical treatment and spontaneous fusions were recorded. RESULTS: The study consisted of 22 patients with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA), nine with rheumatoid factor (RF) positive and 13 with RF negative arthritis, 27 patients with RF positive RA, and three adult patients with other diagnoses. The mean age of patients with adult rheumatic diseases was 27 years at the onset of arthritis. The mean disease duration in all patients was 30 years. The mean Larsen hand score was 93. Four patients had no mutilans fingers and in 15 patients all 10 fingers were mutilated. The Larsen hand score of 0-110 and the mutilans hand score of 0-10 correlated well (rs = 0.90). Fourteen patients showed spontaneous fusions in the peripheral joints. A total of 457 operations were performed on 48 patients. CONCLUSION: Both the Larsen hand score of 0-110 and the mutilans hand score of 0-10 improve accuracy in evaluating mutilans-like hand deformities, but in unevenly distributed hand deformities the mutilans hand score is better in describing deformation of individual fingers.  (+info)

Arthritis of the finger joints: a comprehensive approach comparing conventional radiography, scintigraphy, ultrasound, and contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging. (2/309)

OBJECTIVE: A prospective study was performed comparing conventional radiography, 3-phase bone scintigraphy, ultrasound, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with precontrast and dynamic postcontrast examinations in 60 patients with various forms of arthritis including rheumatoid arthritis (RA), spondyl-arthropathy, and arthritis associated with connective tissue disease. METHODS: A total of 840 finger joints were examined clinically and by all 4 imaging methods. Experienced investigators blinded to the clinical findings and diagnoses analyzed all methods independently of each other. The patients were divided into 2 groups. Group 1 included 32 patients (448 finger joints) without radiologic signs of destructive arthritis (Larsen grades 0-1) of the evaluated hand and wrist and group 2 included 28 patients (392 finger joints) with radiographs revealing erosions (Larsen grade 2) of the evaluated hand and/or wrist. RESULTS: Clinical evaluation, scintigraphy, MRI, and ultrasound were each more sensitive than conventional radiography in detecting inflammatory soft tissue lesions as well as destructive joint processes in arthritis patients in group 1. All differences were statistically significant. We found ultrasound to be even more sensitive than MRI in the detection of synovitis. MRI detected erosions in 92 finger joints (20%; 26 patients) in group 1 that had not been detected by conventional radiography. CONCLUSION: Our data indicate that MRI and ultrasound are valuable diagnostic methods in patients with arthritis who have normal findings on radiologic evaluation.  (+info)

The relationship between synovitis and bone changes in early untreated rheumatoid arthritis: a controlled magnetic resonance imaging study. (3/309)

OBJECTIVE: The interrelationship between synovitis and bone damage in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a subject of controversy. Using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), this study followed the bone changes in early RA and determined their relationship to synovitis. METHODS: Thirty-one patients with early RA who had swelling of the metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joints and 31 healthy control subjects with no clinical evidence of arthritis underwent MRI of the second through fifth MCP joints of the dominant hand by use of a 1.5T scanner. Coronal T1-weighted and T2-fat suppressed (FS) sequences were performed to evaluate bone edema, and gadolinium-diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (Gd-DTPA) pulse sequences were obtained to evaluate synovitis. Bony abnormalities were described as bone edema (low signal on T1-weighted sequences and intermediate/high signal on T2 FS sequences adjacent to the bone cortex) or as bone cysts (circular juxtacortical abnormalities with low signal on T1-weighted images and with very high signal on T2 FS sequences). Contrast and noncontrast MRI films were scored in a blinded manner, and Fisher's exact probability test was used to determine differences between groups. RESULTS: Twenty-one of the 31 RA patients (68%) had bone edema, which was seen in 43 of 124 joints (35% of joints) and 3 of the 31 control subjects had bone edema seen in 3 of 124 joints (2% of joints) (P < 0.0001). Thirty RA patients (97%) had Gd-DTPA-confirmed MCP joint synovitis, and bone edema was seen in 40 of the 75 joints with Gd-DTPA-proven synovitis (53%), but in only 3 of 49 without (6%) (P < 0.0001). CONCLUSION: MCP joint bone edema is present in the majority of patients with RA at presentation, but is seen only occasionally in normal control subjects. The fact that bone edema occurred rarely in the absence of synovitis in patients with RA suggests that bony changes in RA are secondary to synovitis.  (+info)

Genome scan for predisposing loci for distal interphalangeal joint osteoarthritis: evidence for a locus on 2q. (4/309)

The genetic contribution to common forms of osteoarthritis (OA) is well established but poorly understood. We performed a genome scan, using 302 markers for loci predisposing to distal interphalangeal joint (DIP) OA. To minimize genetic heterogeneity in our study sample, we identified siblings with a severe, radiologically defined phenotype from the nationwide registers of Finland. In the initial genome scan, linkage analysis in 27 sibships gave a pairwise LOD score (Z) >1.00 with nine of the screening markers. In the second stage, additional markers and family members were genotyped in these chromosomal regions. On 2q12-q13, IL1R1 resulted in Z=2.34 at recombination fraction (theta) 0, allowing a dominant mode of inheritance. Association analysis of markers D2S2264, IL1R1, D2S373, and D2S1789 jointly provided some evidence for a shared haplotype among the affected individuals (P value of.012). Also, multipoint nonparametric linkage analysis yielded a P value of.0001 near the locus IL1R1 and P=.0007 approximately 20 cM telomeric near marker D2S1399, which, in two-point analysis, gave Z=1.48 (straight theta=. 02). This chromosomal region on 2q harbors the interleukin 1 gene cluster and, thus, represents a good candidate region for inflammatory and autoimmune disorders. Three additional chromosomal regions-4q26-q27, 7p15-p21, and Xcen-also provided some evidence for linkage, and further analyses would be justified to clarify their potential involvement in the genetic predisposition to DIP OA.  (+info)

Reliability and sensitivity to change of a simplification of the Sharp/van der Heijde radiological assessment in rheumatoid arthritis. (5/309)

OBJECTIVE: To determine the reliability and sensitivity to change of a simplified radiological scoring method [simple erosion narrowing score (SENS)] for rheumatoid arthritis (RA). SENS was compared to the Sharp/van der Heijde score (SHS) as a gold standard. METHODS: Sets of seven radiographs of hands and feet were taken of 20 RA patients with a wide spectrum of radiological damage. For 14 patients, these seven radiographs were taken during a follow-up period of 5 yr, and for six patients during a follow-up of 10 yr. Each set of radiographs was scored twice by the same observer (DvdH). Erosions and joint space narrowing were scored with SHS (range 0-448) in 32 and 30 joints in the hands, respectively, and both in 12 joints in the feet. SENS gives a score of 1 if there is any erosion in a joint and also 1 if there is any narrowing in the joint (range 0-86). In each case, SENS was derived from SHS. To analyse data, generalizability theory and repeated measurements ANOVA were used. RESULTS: The overall reliability coefficient was 0.81 for SHS and 0.80 for SENS. Intra-observer reliability [intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC)] was 0.99 and 0.98 for SHS and SENS, respectively. The ICC for the sensitivity to change was 0.84 for SHS and 0.88 for SENS. The smallest detectable difference (SDD) could be determined for both methods. The presence of progression based on this SDD was very comparable between the two methods. CONCLUSION: The measurement properties of SENS are good and comparable to SHS. This makes SENS suitable for use in clinical practice and in large (epidemiological) studies, especially in the first years of disease.  (+info)

Advancement in the zone of calcified cartilage in osteoarthritic hands of patients detected by high definition macroradiography. (6/309)

OBJECTIVE: High definition macroradiography permits the advancement in the zone of calcified cartilage (described as a ZCC step) to be detected in osteoarthritic (OA) hand joints of patients. The pattern of their incidence and distribution was determined and compared to the joint space width (JSW) measurement. DESIGN: Macroradiographs, x5 magnification, were obtained of the OA hands of 44 patients at baseline and at 18 months. The incidence of ZCC steps, identified as an advancement in the mineralized cartilage front into articular cartilage, was assessed at each articular surface. JSW was measured and was used to determine the difference in JSW between hands and groups of joints with and without ZCC steps at both X-ray visits. RESULTS: ZCC steps were only found at the convex articular surfaces in 42 (48%) of hand joints in 28 (64%) patients. Here, ZCC steps were present in 36 joints in the non-dominant hand compared to 30 joints in the dominant hand. In the former, they were present in 22 DIP, six PIP and eight MCP joints and in 12 DIP, 8 PIP and 10 MCP joints in the dominant hand. By 18 months new ZCC steps had formed in 15 hands with and 17 hands without previous ZCC steps. At both X-ray visits no statistically significant difference in JSW was found between the hands and joint groups with and without ZCC steps. CONCLUSION: Although ZCC steps and JSW loss were greater at the PIP joints, supporting a mechanical hypothesis for ZCC formation, their presence in joints, where JSW was larger, and their greater incidence in the non-dominant PIP joints, suggest that factors associated with vascular changes, related to subchondral bone remodeling, are responsible. inverted question markcopy inverted question mark  (+info)

Isolation of Pantoea agglomerans in two cases of septic monoarthritis after plant thorn and wood sliver injuries. (7/309)

Arthritis after plant injury is often apparently aseptic. We report two cases due to Pantoea agglomerans. In one case, the bacterium was isolated only from the pediatric blood culture media, BACTEC Peds Plus, monitored in BACTEC 9240, and not from the other media inoculated with the joint fluid. This procedure could help improve the diagnosis of septic arthritis.  (+info)

Occupational use of precision grip and forceful gripping, and arthrosis of finger joints: a literature review. (8/309)

A systematic review of arthrosis of finger joints in relation to occupational exposure revealed 11 epidemiological studies and 13 case reports. All studies but one were cross-sectional rendering demonstration of causation problematic. The reviewed literature also had drawbacks relating to exposure classification, confounding and non-attendance. Four studies showed an association between extensive use of precision grip and development of arthrosis of the distal interphalangeal joints of fingers. Two studies found an association between forceful gripping and the occurrence of arthrosis involving the metacarpophalangeal joints. Arthrosis of the proximal interphalangeal joints and first carpo-metacarpal joints was not related to any specific occupational task. Well-designed studies are needed to further elucidate this possible occupational hazard.  (+info)

This study reviews the literature on the anatomy of the connective tissues surrounding the distal interphalangeal joint and further characterizes the three-dimensional relationships of these structures with ultra-high field magnetic resonance imaging. Ten cadaver fingers, fixed in a solution of 5% agar and 4% formalin, were imaged utilising an ultrashield 16.4 Tesla ultra-high field magnetic resonance imaging, yielding a total of 4000 images. Images were analysed using Osirix™ (version 5.5.1 32 bit edition) for three-dimensional reconstruction. We found numerous conflicting descriptions of the connective tissue structures around the distal interphalangeal joint. Based upon our literature review and imaging studies we have defined precisely Clelands ligaments, the oblique proximal septum, Graysons ligaments, the dorsal plate, and the interosseous ligaments of the distal interphalangeal joint ...
TY - GEN. T1 - Flexor tendon force ratios affect grip force and finger joint motion on power grip. T2 - A cadaver model. AU - Park, Shi Hyun. AU - Hwang, Jesun. AU - Freivalds, Andris. PY - 2011/12/1. Y1 - 2011/12/1. N2 - We studied the effect of flexor tendon force ratio with regard to the grip force and the finger joint angle on power grip motion in a cadaver model using the hand motion simulator. The hand motion simulator was developed with a force delivery unit and data acquisition system. The simulator controlled both flexor tendon forces (FDP and FDS) ranged from 1:1 to 1:6 of FD:FDP. 40% of FDS force to total tendon force (i.e. 3:2 FDP to FDS) showed the highest grip force. Also, the internal tendon force was 5.3 times higher than externally applied grip force, and the efficiency of the forces was best at the 3:2 FDP to FDS force ratio. The finger joint angles were changed according to the tendon force ratios of FDP to FDS. These results demonstrate that awkward finger motion and posture ...
Erosive hand osteoarthritis targets interphalangeal joints and shows severe radiographic subchondral bone destruction and cartilage attrition with poor long-term functional outcome,8 9 27,-,29 and functional impairment caused by hand osteoarthritis was reported to be similar in severity to that in RA.30 Meaningful treatment should deal with the destructive events during the disease in order to prevent the progression of structural remodelling. The destructive events, ie, the osteolytic processes and the disappearance of the articular cartilage in osteoarthritis, are most likely mediated by the same cytokine cascades operational in other inflammatory rheumatic conditions, eg, RA and psoriatic arthritis.31,-,35 Here in states of skeletal inflammation TNFα is produced, which is the dominant cytokine present in inflammation-associated joint tissue destruction. TNFα directly stimulates osteoclast progenitors of the monocyte/macrophage lineage to differentiate to osteoclasts,13 14 and augments ...

regime to which the horses were be submitted. The pedigree of this horse stud also remained the same genetic lines from the top of it and some animals were introduced from different sources, both paternal and maternal that in the course of some months also exhibited the same sagittal deviation of the distal forelimbs, like other horses affected. The appearance of these lesions coincided with the installation of wind turbines (TE) 2 mega-watts that were implemented in the said land adjacent to the stud, which is the only environmental change that has occurred. The degree of hyperflexion of the distal interphalangeal joint, was observed as variable among foals. However, some have lost the ability to support almost the entire sole of the hoof on the ground, supporting only the clip, undermining its locomotion very significantly and, concomitantly, their well-being and quality of life. Associated with the onset of flexural deformation also appeared several behavioral changes in horses, passing these ...
Typical musculoskeletal complications of diabetes mellitus include syndrome of limited joint mobility, diabetic sclerodactyly, neuropathic joints, osteolysis, carpal tunnel syndrome, DupuytrenÕs contracture, flexor tenosynovitis, adhesive capsulitis, and shoulder-hand syndrome. Of these, only limited joint mobility syndrome, and diabetic sclerodactyly occur exclusively in patints with diabetes. Syndrome of limited joint mobility in diabetic patients is generally painless and seldom treated until hand deformity is severe enough to interfere with daily life. The complaints of stiffness, decreased grip strength, and loss of motion in a diabetic patient should suggest the onset of this disorder.. ...

The problem with doing a finger joint with all square fingers is that the maximum strength of the joint is the strength of the fingers. But the fingers can only be half as strong as the pieces of wood they join, seeing that half is cut away for the other fingers. When buying finger joined material, the fingers are always trapezoidal, or triangular. Provided that the glue is strong enough, and the angle narrow enough, this can produce a joint that is nearly as strong as the wood it joins. Ideally, I would have a sawblade that makes a trapezoidal cut, but such a thing doesnt exist, so I experimented a little with trying other variations on the end to end finger joint. ...

REASONS FOR PERFORMING STUDY: Osseous abnormalities associated with collateral ligament (CL) injury of the distal interphalangeal (DIP) joint have been documented using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) but there is currently limited information about the frequency of osseous pathology associated with CL injury. OBJECTIVES: To determine the frequency of occurrence of osseous abnormality coexistent with CL injury of the DIP joint and describe the distribution and character of osseous lesions; and to establish if there was an association between osseous abnormality and increased radiopharmaceutical uptake (IRU). HYPOTHESES: There would be a higher incidence of osseous abnormality at the insertion of an injured CL than at the origin; and a relationship between the presence of osseous abnormality and duration of lameness. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Magnetic resonance images of 313 feet of 289 horses with foot pain and a definitive diagnosis of collateral desmopathy of the DIP joint were analysed retrospectively
The proximal and middle phalanges from 83 proximal interphalangeal joints (PIPJs) were set in clear plastic and sectioned in the transverse plane leaving the heads whole. The sections were cleaned, shadowgraphed and measured. The medullary canals were marked on sagittal and frontal plane shadowgraphs of the intact bones and analysed. The information was then used in the design of a surface replacement prosthesis for the PIPJs. The main dorsal surface of the proximal phalanx (PP) was found to be angled to the longitudinal baseline of the bone by a mean of 5.19 degrees. This angle increased just proximal to the phalangeal head to a mean of 11.84 degrees. The mean ratio between these angles was 2.71. The phalangeal shaft bone was thicker laterally than dorsally and palmarly, and thicker dorsally than palmarly for the proximal and middle phalanges throughout the length of the bone. The shape and size of the transverse cross-section of the medullary canal changed throughout the length of the shaft. The

Swollen finger joint due to synovitis, an early degenerative change which occurs in rheumatoid arthritis. This disease affects both the synovium lining the joint capsules of the hands and knees and the cartilage on the articular surfaces of bone. The synovium becomes thickened with an increased blood supply and is distorted into papillary folds as a result of swelling and infiltration by white blood cells. Later changes include destruction of cartilage & its replacement by fibrovascular granulation tissue known as pannus. Joint mobility is limited by pain & swelling & later by cartilage & bone destruction & fusion of the joint (ankylosis). - Stock Image M110/0289
The present study demonstrated a presence of Doppler activity in 11% of the hand and finger joints of healthy volunteers with no history of arthritis, hand or wrist trauma, or current symptoms. Although the majority of the joints examined were without Doppler activity, we believe the 11% positive in this study to be substantial, disqualifying the mere presence of colour pixels on scans as an indication of inflammation.. Anatomically, the synovial membrane consists of a lining layer and a sub-lining layer bordering on the fibrous capsule. Deep in the sub-lining, arteries and veins can be seen, which decrease in size as the lining layer is approached.16 Detection of arterial flow in the synovial membrane depends on the sensitivity of the Doppler equipment, and our findings of colour pixels in normal synovial membrane scans are in accordance with one previous study reporting colour pixels in joint scans of 15 medical students,17 but in contrast to other studies reporting negative Doppler findings ...

Evidence-based recommendations on artificial metacarpophalangeal and interphalangeal joint replacement for treating end-stage arthritis
Some patients begin rehabilitation one to two days after surgery, but others may need more time. A splint is generally worn for four to five weeks after the procedure in order to keep the joint stable and aid in the healing and strengthening of soft tissues.. It may be necessary to meet with a physical therapist for approximately six to eight weeks. First, heat therapy may be used to ease pain and swelling. Next, range-of-motion exercises are used to strengthen and stabilize the joint.. Within about eight to 10 weeks, the majority of patients regain, on average, about two-thirds of the fingers normal range of motion. By that point, patients are able to resume their usual activities. However, recovering patients should continue to tape the finger with the new joint to an adjacent finger for additional support whenever theyre performing activities that require a grip and release motion..

Author(s): Derrah, Ryan; Wolterstorff, Cameron | Abstract: We report a case of a 44-year-old male with an uncommon case of an open dorsal proximal interphalangeal (PIP) dislocation. Although open PIP dislocations are often volar, dorsal dislocations are fraught with complications due to the potential for infection and damage to supportive structures. Features of this case are discussed together with its implications, including lack of standardized management in the literature, use of a closed reduction following copious irrigation, and requirement for antibiotic use.
I ve stopped relying on the email notification system. My hubby is a techie for a web hosting firm, he says it s a constant fight for him to get contact with mail carriers to get his IPs off their blacklists (as spammers), and that it s pretty much reputation that determines how mail from any given domain is treated on the networks. Curezone is a volunteer-administrated system, and kinda a hotspot for information wars. I don t think it d be easy at all to maintain a clean whitelisting for CZ, so it s probably just best to log in and visit on a semi-regular basis. ;) For artheriti ...
The foundation of the successful management of purulent flexor tenosynovitis is the surgical debridement followed by an intravenous antibiotic treatment. Several surgical methods have been described to remove the purulent debris from the flexor tendon sheath. Closed-catheter irrigation involves irrigation of the tendon sheath from proximal to distal direction facilitated by two small incisions; one proximal to A1 pulley and one distal to A4 pulley. Lille et al. (J Hand Surg Br. 2000;25(3):304-307) conducted a retrospective study that implied that intraoperative closed-catheter irrigation without postoperative irrigation might be as effective as the combination of intra- and postoperative irrigation.. The hypothesis of this prospective randomized trial is that the intraoperative closed-catheter irrigation alone is as effective as the combination of intraoperative and postoperative intermittent closed-catheter irrigation in the treatment of purulent flexor tenosynovitis. ...

BACKGROUND: Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is inflammatory arthritis associated with psoriasis, which involves the axial joint and the distal interphalangeal joints. Its clinical features are varied, often resulting in delayed diagnosis and treatment. Improved knowledge about disease mechanisms will catalyze the rapid development of effective targeted therapies for this disease. The perturbations in the gene co-expression network may not be detected by the differential expression analysis of the microarray. This study aims to identify key modules and hub genes in psoriatic arthritis-applied WGCNA (weighted gene co-expression network analysis) on a microarray. METHODS: This study downloaded the array data of GSE61281 from the gene expression overview (GEO) database, which includes 20 psoriatic arthritis samples and 12 healthy controls. The analysis was performed with the WGCNA package. Gene ontology (GO) annotation and the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analyses were ...

Foot pain is an important cause of lameness in horses. When horses with foot pain have no detectable radiographic abnormalities, soft-tissue assessment remains a diagnostic challenge without magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. Ultrasonography can provide an alternative to MR imaging when that modality is not available but the extent of changes that might be seen has not been characterized. We reviewed the ultrasonographic findings in 39 horses with lameness responding positively to anesthesia of the palmar digital nerves and without radiographically detectable osseous abnormalities. Thirty of the 39 horses had lesions affecting the deep digital flexor tendon (DDFT), 27 had abnormalities in the distal interphalangeal joint of ...

Even though cartilage loss is a known feature of psoriatic arthritis (PsA), little is known about its role in the pathogenesis of PsA. Using delayed gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging of cartilage (dGEMRIC) as a non-invasive marker of the tissues proteoglycan content, such early (i.e., pre-morphological) changes have been associated with inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Yet, this association has not been studied before in PsA. The metacarpophalangeal (MCP), proximal interphalangeal (PIP), and distal interphalangeal (DIP) joints of 17 patients with active PsA were evaluated by high-resolution clinical standard morphological and dGEMRIC sequences using a 3T MRI scanner (Magnetom Skyra, Siemens) and a dedicated 16-channel hand coil. Images were analyzed by two independent raters for dGEMRIC indices, PsA MRI scores (PsAMRIS), and total cartilage thickness (TCT). Kendall tau correlation coefficients (τ) were calculated. We found significant negative correlations between dGEMRIC

METHODS: A stepwise approach was used: (1) scoring static images of metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joints in a web-based exercise and subsequently when scanning patients; (2) scoring static images of wrist, proximal interphalangeal joints, knee and metatarsophalangeal joints in a web-based exercise and subsequently when scanning patients using different acquisitions (standardised vs usual practice ...
Acute HNs are a feature of pre-radiographic hand OA and these gelatinous synovial cysts are thought to be a forerunner of new bone formation [1-4]. The nature of the gelatinous material (being rich in hyaluronan [2, 14]) and the new bone formation that occurs in OA at these locations lead us to the hypothesis that MSCs may become entrapped from the joint SF in such material in the earliest stages of OA. Herein, we show the presence of HN resident cells which met functional, phenotypic, and transcriptional profiles of MSCs that are closely related to SF-MSCs [9, 19].. Although HNs are a common form of generalized nodal OA, clinical presentation at the acute phase, prior to ossification, is somewhat rare; only three cases have appeared in our clinic in the past five years [1, 3]. Consequently, only a small number of such gelatinous cysts could be sampled. Despite these low sample numbers, the functional, phenotypic, and transcriptional data presented here are consistent with these cells being ...

Rheumatism (FR) is a rare disease characterized by polyarthralgia associated with painless subcutaneous nodules, sclerodactyly and finger contractures. Case report a 45-year-old man presented with peripheral vascular disease, polyarthralgia and subcutaneous nodules. The diagnosis of FR was confirmed by histological examination of a biopsy sample of a nodule, which showed myofibroblast proliferation. Radiographs of both hands showed bilateral erosion of the distal and proximal interphalangeal joints, of the right trapezium bone and acroosteolysis of the third phalanx of the right-hand second finger. Comments although the clinical features of FR have now been well described, the literature includes few radiological descriptions. In most reported cases, radiographs are normal at disease onset. Joint radiographs performed later usually show bone destruction of the hands and feet ...
The correction of a significantly subluxed or dislocated hammertoe in an elderly patient can be a challenge to any surgeon. Over the last 22 years, I have tried numerous ways to correct the problem, all with varying degrees of success. The use of the Weil osteotomy along with other procedures, including proximal interphalangeal joint fusion, flexor transfer and now plantar plate repair from a dorsal approach, has not given me consistent results with patients who are over 65 years of age.

Joint effusion is one of the classic radiographic signs of osteoarthritis, but no information is available regarding clinicians ability to detect joint effusion radiographically. This study determined the accuracy and precision of experienced and inexperienced observers in detecting joint effusion of the distal interphalangeal (DIP), metacarpophalangeal (MCP) and midcarpal joints on radiographs. Fresh cadaverous forelimbs were loaded in a material testing machine to mimic a standing horse. The joints were gradually distended and lateromedial and dorsopalmar radiographs were acquired. The images were assessed by three experienced and three inexperienced observers. This study showed that the sensitivity was high for both groups for all joints and projections. Specificity was high for the experienced group but low for the inexperienced group. There was a significant positive correlation between joint distension and severity of joint effusion when reported by experienced observersfor most views ...

Arthritic hands. Coloured X-ray of hands suffering from severe rheumatoid arthritis. Here swelling and bone deformation (pink) is seen in finger joints between metacarpal and phalanges bones, and between phalanges bones themselves. Most joints are ragged due to bone erosion, with the thumbs also affected. Rheumatoid arthritis is the second most common arthritic disease (after osteo- arthritis). It typically affects joints of the fingers, wrist, feet and hips. Treatment for pain and for restricted movement in the affected areas is by use of anti-inflammatory drugs; physiotherapy may help preserve joint movement. - Stock Image M110/0383
Rheumatoid arthritis is an inflammatory disease affecting about 1.3 million adults, and causes pain, swelling, stiffness, and loss of function in the joints. Several features make it different from other kinds of arthritis - such as generally occurring in a symmetrical pattern. This means that if one knee or hand is involved, the other one also is. The disease often affects the wrist joints and the finger joints closest to the hand, but it can also affect other parts of the body besides the joints. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) occurs in all races and ethnic groups. The cause of the disease is not known, but it is believed to be an autoimmune disease (an illness that occurs when the body mistakenly detects its own tissue as foreign and attacks itself). Although the disease often begins in middle age and occurs with increased frequency in older people, children and young adults also develop it. Like some other forms of arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis occurs much more frequently in women than in men. ...
I had the exact same thing happen to me on my middle finger. Youve cut one of 4 main nerves in your finger and thats why its numb. Your PCM should have booked you for microscopic surgery with a` plastic surgeon to re-attach your severed nerve. I cut myself opening an avocado with a steak knife and cut the nerve on the left side of my finger. So from the cut on my finger to the tip on one side its numb. I had micro surgery and now my hand is in a splint to keep my finger absolutley still until the nerve heals which takes 4 weeks. Hope that helps.I stabbed myself in the right index finger between the 2 finger joints on the side closest to the thumb. I could not get to medical care until the injury was 7 hours old. At the emergency room they cleaned it and put a sterry strip on it. Today is 6 days since the injury and I have removed the bandaid and the stab is about 1/8th inch. When the injury happened, I knew I had at least hit the nerve by the explosive pain and burning sensation. Since then, I ...

Below is a transcript of the video sample provided for this module:. It is helpful to understand the physical structure of the hands in order to better protect yourself against hand injuries. There are 27 bones in the human hand, including the carpals, metacarpals and phalanges. The bones are connected at the joints with white, rubbery cartilage which allows smooth movement. Tendons in the hand cause each finger joint to straighten and bend, while ligaments prevent improper movement. Most of the muscles in the hand start at the elbow or forearm. They control wrist movement, finger movement and thumb opposition. Nerves carry sensation and control signals back and forth from the brain. Blood vessels run throughout the arm and hand, supplying oxygen and nutrition to all the other tissues. The large radial artery on the inside of the wrist is the spot where a pulse is commonly taken ...
Synovial joints come in several forms: ball and socket (ex. hip), hinge (ex. elbow), pivot (ex. shaking head to say no), gliding (ex. wrist movement), condyloid (ex. finger joints), and saddle (ex. thumb joint). A synovial joint includes the bones involved, which have a layer of articular cartilage on each of their articular surfaces. This cartilage, along with a synovial membrane, forms the joint, which is filled with synovial fluid. The joint is covered by a fibrous capsule and ligaments keep the capsule in place.. Thursday:. The first skull appears about 500mya in fish, although it was more osteodentin than true bone. There were no moveable parts, and it acted as armor to protect the notochord. Placoderms derived from this and were the first jawed fish. Chondrichthyes began having a cartilaginous skeleton in addition to the skull plate. Osteichthyes developed a skin covering over the plate, and the plate covered the head, leaving the orbits, nasal, and mouth free. Early tetrapods began the ...
A 33 year-old woman, working as a nurse assistant, has had rheumatoid factor positive rheumatoid arthritis of 5 years duration. She had been on non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (diclofenac sodium 50 mg twice daily) and steroids for the first 3 years and thereafter she started to receive the antimetabolite methotrexate IM every week + folic acid and steroids were stopped. She presented to my clinic on November 30, 2005 seeking for an alternative treatment because of poor response to the medicines in addition to its side effects (e.g., hair falling). Upon presentation she had pain and stiffness of the small joints of the hands (metacarpophalangeal, proximal and distal interphalangeal) and feet (metatarsophalangeal). The wrists, elbows, shoulders, knees, and ankles were also affected. The patient was feeling tired and unwell and the pain and stiffness were significantly worse in the morning. The temporomandibular joints were also involved. The weight was 83 kg and height 153 cm (body mass index ...
Heart disease is a catch-all term that includes heart attack, irregular heartbeat, high blood pressure and atherosclerosis (the build-up of plaque in the arteries). Heart disease is the leading cause of death in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients, and if you have RA, you have a twofold increased risk for heart attack and stroke. For people whove had RA for 10 years or more, the risk rises to nearly threefold.. The risk is not limited to RA, however. One of the earliest findings of a link between heart disease and osteoarthritis (OA) came in 2003 when a study found that men with OA in just one finger joint were 42 percent more likely to die of heart disease versus men without OA.. The reason for the increased risk of heart disease in arthritis patients, as is the case with some other arthritis co-conditions, is inflammation. Inflammation, regardless of its source, is a known risk factor for heart disease. RA-related inflammation narrows blood vessels and leads to plaque formation inside of the ...
The outcome measures in rheumatology clinical trials (OMERACT) scores are the most mature quantitation system for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Direct measuring techniques of synovial volume have been reported with good reproducibility, although few reports have demonstrated the changes of these measures in response to treatment. To assess these clinical responses, we evaluated the correlation of the changes of clinical activity score 28-joints disease activity score (DAS28-CRP) with the changes of OMERACT scores and with synovial volume measurements. Eight RA patients who were treated by biologic agents were examined with MRI of the dominant affected wrist and finger joints before and one year after the treatment. The total OMERACT score was reduced from 48.0 to 41.3, and synovial volume was reduced from 15.4 to 8.8 milliliters. Positive correlations were seen between the changes of DAS28-CRP and the changes of OMERACT synovitis score (r=0.27), OMERACT total ...
