Nucleated cell counts If there is adequate sample volume, enumeration of cells per microliter of the fluid is useful and can be a significant discriminator in the diagnostic process. Total nucleated cell counts (TNCCs) are extremely valuable in separating inflammatory and noninflammatory arthropathies...
The remaining acute joints in which no cell count was done were gout (7 cases), pseudogout (5 cases) and rheumatoid arthritis (1 case). Cell counts were not routinely detected for a variety of reasons. Eleven aspirates were deemed too viscous, and in eight cases the sample had clotted ...
Anechoic mechanical effusions, featuring low cell counts, provide an excellent acoustic window for US beams, facilitating the visualization of hyperechoic particles in the synovial fluid (SF). In contrast, inflammatory effusions, with a higher cell count, hinder proper US wave transmission, making it...
The latter five exudative effusions, three of which had the highest white cell counts, with reduced complement content and higher total protein and IgG content, were reminiscent of the synovial fluid seen in RA. A distinguishing feature of SLE joint fluid may be that they typically have fewer ...
Joint fluid is examined under a microscope and blood cell counts are done. Normal joint fluid has none or few blood cells. Large numbers of red blood cells indicate bleeding in the joint. Large numbers of white blood cells can occur with infection,inflammatory arthritis,gout, orpseudogout.3 ...
Total and differential cell counts were performed, and the fluids were examined by polarized light microscopy and analytical electron microscopy to determine crystal content. fluids from patients with rheumatoid arthritis and gout had a higher total cell count, and greater proportion of polymorphonuclear ...
Further investigation is recommended into the contribution of SF inspection and white cell counts to diagnosis, as well as of the specificity and sensitivity of SF microbiological assays, crystal identification, and cytology. 展开 关键词: Humans Synovial Fluid Arthritis, Infectious Gram-Negative ...

Thus, most patients with acute attacks of gout andpseudogout, active RA, reactive arthritis, and psoriatic arthritis, as well as patients withgonococcal arthritisand other nonpyogenic forms of septic arthritis, will typically present with synovial fluid cell counts in this range (seeTable 53-1)...
