Although both bone marrow and synovial fluid represent an attractive tissue source for MSCs and have the potential to treat cases with articular cartilage injuries, results from our laboratory have shown that the properties of MSCs are donor-dependent, which could potentially affect their clinical effi...
T1-weighted images are useful to visualize the tissues that predominantly contain fat (bone marrow) since they produce a high T1 signal and appear white, which makes them easier to analyze. The tissues that contain more water (ligaments, cartilage, synovial fluid) produce a lower T1 signal and...
To evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of Gram staining of synovial fluid aspirated from native joints suspected to be infected, we reviewed results of synovial fluid Gram stain and cultures. The sensitivity and specificity of the synovial Gram stain were then calculated. From the 1067 ...

In addition to creating more synovial fluid around the joints, exercise can increase circulation of nutrients to joints, reduce inflammation, and increase blood flow to joints. Exercise also “promotes weight loss, which is helpful for joint pain and improves balance and coordination,” Callahan said...

the joint fluid, the ligaments, the tendons, the muscles as well as the nervous system. In a healthy canine joint, the cartilage and synovial fluid act as a cushion to allow a joint to move smoothly in a full range of motion with the support of the surrounding capsule, ligaments, and ...
fluid of people suffering depression,15and increasing blood levels of SAMe have been found to produce improvements in depressive symptoms.16Scientists have also discovered a clear link between SAMe and folic acid, demonstrating that the two nutrients work together to beneficially affect monoamine ...
(range was set from 0.01 to 0.8 mm/s). This sensitivity analysis showed that for lower values of strain and fluid velocity, cartilage degeneration increases more rapidly and even in different areas than around the cracks (cartilage surface and sample edges). Clearly, these results were not in...
sudden lameness (one or more limbs affected) and stiff movement. Swollen, soft and fluctuating joints are found. The synovial fluid volume is increased, sero-fibrinous, cloudy and brownish in colour (Figure 3). Animals do not want to move, which finally results in growth retardation over time...
