Rheumatoid Arthritis2
- Widespread osteopenia, carpal crowding (due to cartilage loss), and several erosions affecting the carpal bones and metacarpal heads in particular in a child with advanced juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (also known as juvenile idiopathic arthritis). (medscape.com)
- BACKGROUND: The aggressive phenotype of fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) has been identified as a contributing factor to the exacerbation of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) through the promotion of synovitis and cartilage damage. (bvsalud.org)
Femur1
- Labral Tears reference damage of the cartilage that protects the femur (ball) and acetabulum (socket). (beaconortho.com)
Wears2
- If arthritis wears down the cartilage or injury damages the joint, knee pain will occur. (barnesjewish.org)
- The cartilage in the knee gradually wears away, causing pain and swelling. (medlineplus.gov)
Surfaces4
- These act as a cushion between the articular surfaces and absorb the shock during movement. (hashamalvimd.com)
- Most of the procedures are designed to remove the articular cartilage from the joint surfaces of the hinge joint and then bind the two surfaces together until they heal. (eorthopod.com)
- To allow smooth and painless motion of the knee joint, articular surfaces of these bones are covered with a shiny white slippery articular cartilage. (ianbacarese-hamilton.co.uk)
- The locking is caused by loose pieces of cartilage or bone that dislodge from the joint and become trapped between the moving joint surfaces, blocking motion. (aaos.org)
Surgeries2
- There are more than 600,000 knee replacement surgeries done annually in the United States and it is a fairly straightforward procedure, although complications can sometimes occur. (drmaheshbagwe.com)
- If NSAID use continues, then most likely the exponential rise in degenerative arthritis and subsequent musculoskeletal surgeries, including knee and hip replacements as well as spine surgeries, will continue to rise as well. (caringmedical.com)
Inflammation1
- Tendonitis is inflammation of any of the tendons in the wrist. (smoc-pt.com)
Extracellular matrix2
- A proteoglycan (a protein to which long carbohydrate chains are attached) is a central component of the extracellular matrix in the articular cartilage. (lu.se)
- Cells that produce and maintain the extracellular matrix in the cartilage. (lu.se)
Instability1
- Mice that were administered As orally in conjunction with surgically induced joint instability, had heightened cartilage destruction compared to wild-type mice. (bvsalud.org)
Quadriceps muscle1
- Instead of cutting the tendon and quadriceps muscle, Dr. Burnett separates them. (barnesjewish.org)
Proliferation2
- responsible for growth spurt and closing of epiphyseal plate, resting cartilage, the proliferation zone, hypertrophy zone, calcification zone. (chezbebeny.com)
- Recent research has shed light on the crucial regulatory role of R-spondin-2 (Rspo2) in cellular proliferation, cartilage degradation, and tumorigenesis. (bvsalud.org)
Shoulder9
- With the introduction of minimally invasive techniques, modern pain protocols, blood loss control, improved anesthetic techniques, and rapid rehabilitation protocols, surgeons are able to perform shoulder replacement procedures on an outpatient basis. (shoulderandelbowsurgeons.net)
- Tendons and ligaments around the shoulder joint provide strength and stability to the joint. (shoulderandelbowsurgeons.net)
- To be considered for an outpatient shoulder replacement, a person should be in good health (free of any diseases), a high level of motivation during the rehabilitation process, and good family support. (shoulderandelbowsurgeons.net)
- Outpatient shoulder replacement is commonly indicated for the treatment of shoulder conditions such as arthritis when medications, injections, physical therapy, or other treatments have been unsuccessful. (shoulderandelbowsurgeons.net)
- In such a condition, replacement of the damaged portion of the shoulder joint with a shoulder prosthesis (artificial joint) helps relieve symptoms and restore normal function of your shoulder joint. (shoulderandelbowsurgeons.net)
- Outpatient shoulder replacement is usually performed under advanced anesthetic technique as a minimally invasive procedure. (shoulderandelbowsurgeons.net)
- At times, it may cause tear in the ligaments or tendons of the shoulder and nerve damage. (spartanorthoinstitute.com)
- This type of tear occurs at the front of the upper arm where the biceps tendon connects to the shoulder. (advancedortho.org)
- He performed my total shoulder replacement and I couldn't be happier with the results! (jointandsports.com)
Repair7
- For this reason, most surgeons caring for injured athletes will repair the tendon with sutures to restore its optimal length. (stoneclinic.com)
- Dr Jay Ebert completed his PhD in cartilage repair, biomechanics and exercise rehabilitation at the University of Western Australia (UWA) in 2008, for which he was awarded the Exercise and Sports Science Australia (ESSA) Medal. (edu.au)
- Due to insufficient blood supply, cartilage is not able to repair itself. (mmarmedical.com)
- More specifically, articular cartilage (found in elbows, knees, etc.) can't be repair by the body, but nevertheless have short lifespans and wear out over time. (gaiastemcells.com)
- Long-term survival of concurrent meniscus allograft transplantation and articular cartilage repair: A PROSPECTIVE TWO- TO 12-YEAR FOLLOW-UP REPORT. (stoneclinic.com)
- Abstract] The unavailability of sufficient numbers of human primary cells is a major roadblock for in vitro repair of bone and/or cartilage, and for performing disease modelling experiments. (udc.es)
- Exosomes from MSCs can deliver a variety of DNA, RNA, proteins and lipids, thereby facilitating MSC migration and cartilage repair. (bvsalud.org)
