来源: Rheumatology (Oxford). 1999年38卷12期1272-4页
The principal aims of this study were to determine the frequency of sepsis after local corticosteroid injection (SALCSI), to compare the results with those of the literature and to determine the main factors leading to a decrease in the frequency of SALCSI.
8549. Ultrasonic measurement of the thickness of human articular cartilage in situ.
The objective of the present study was to explore the possibility of using the ultrasonic pulse-echo technique for the non-invasive measurement of cartilage thickness in situ during a joint arthroscopic examination. The accuracy of the ultrasonic measurement was assessed in vitro against that of an established needling technique which is destructive.

来源: Rheumatology (Oxford). 1999年38卷12期1249-54页
Estimate the contribution of monocytes/macrophages to the disease process in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), by measuring the serum levels of the leucocyte-derived granular proteins: lysozyme, myeloperoxidase (MPO), lactoferrin and human neutrophil lipocalin (HNL).
8553. Peripheral ulcerative keratitis 'corneal melt' and rheumatoid arthritis: a case series.
(1) To review the visual and systemic outcomes of patients who developed rheumatoid arthritis (RA)-associated peripheral ulcerative keratitis (PUK). (2) To describe the clinical and serological characteristics of the patients' arthropathy at the time of presentation of this rare condition. (3) To review the aetiology and management of RA-associated PUK. Patients and methods. A case series is given of all nine patients within our unit who have developed RA-associated PUK since 1996. Details of the patients' arthropathy and the serological characteristics of the RA at presentation of PUK were noted. The patients' visual outcomes and the development of any significant systemic complications were recorded.
8554. Osteopenia in young hypogonadal women with systemic lupus erythematosus receiving chronic steroid therapy: a randomized controlled trial comparing calcitriol and hormonal replacement therapy.
作者: A W Kung.;T M Chan.;C S Lau.;R W Wong.;S S Yeung.
来源: Rheumatology (Oxford). 1999年38卷12期1239-44页
To evaluate the efficacy of calcitriol and hormonal replacement therapy (HRT) in the treatment of steroid-induced osteoporosis in hypogonadal women.

To validate the objective monitoring of ambulatory activity as an outcome measure for rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
8556. Recurrent pregnancy loss and autoantibody profile in autoimmune diseases.
作者: C P Mavragani.;J P Ioannidis.;A G Tzioufas.;I E Hantoumi.;H M Moutsopoulos.
来源: Rheumatology (Oxford). 1999年38卷12期1228-33页
To explore the association of non-organ-specific autoimmune responses against three distinct Ro antigen-related reactivities (Ro52, Ro60, p57) with a history of pregnancy loss in women with autoimmune disorders. Materials and methods. Seventy unselected anti-Ro/SSA-positive women were studied in a retrospective cohort study. Forty anti-Ro/SSA-positive women were age matched to an equal number of women with autoimmune disorders who were anti-Ro/SSA negative in a case-control study. The association of reactivities against three distinct antigen specificities (Ro52, Ro60, p57) with recurrent pregnancy loss was investigated. Independence and modification of these associations from the effect of antithyroglobulin, antithyroid peroxidase and anticardiolipin antibodies were also examined.

To investigate the influence of HLA-DRB1 alleles encoding the QK/RRAA shared epitope (SE) on radiological outcome in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and to determine whether it is modulated by alleles carrying the putative rheumatoid arthritis-protective (RAP) sequence DERAA. Patients and methods. The association between erosive damage and HLA-DRB1 status was examined in 315 RA patients with a disease duration of 5-30 yr. Radiological outcome was measured by scoring X-rays of the hands and feet using the standard radiographs of Larsen (Larsen score). HLA-DRB1 typing was carried out using polymerase chain reaction methodology.
