Automated leukocyte differential counts of synovial fluid (SF) can be influenced by laboratory artefacts. Pseudoeosinophilia of SF has recently been first described in association with monosodium urate and calcium pyrophosphate crystals. This study compared automated measurements of the percentages of
Treatment for osteoporosis commonly includes the use of bisphosphonates. Serious side effects of these drugs are caused by the inhibition of bone resorption as a result of osteoclast apoptosis. Treatment using calcitonin along with bisphosphonates overcomes these side-effects in some

Porous β-calcium pyrophosphate (β-CPP) was developed to improve the fusion success of posterolateral lumbar fusion (PLF). The possibility of accomplishing PLF using a mixture of porous β-CPP and iliac bone was studied. This paper reports the radiologic results of PLF

Many crystals may be found in arthritic joints. Rheumatologists are able to diagnose, with a high degree of probability, which crystals induce arthritis in the individual case. A definite diagnosis supported by polarisation microscopy may provide a firm basis for
Innovation in dental restorative materials is driven by the need for biocompatible and natural-appearing restoration alternatives. Conventional dental materials like amalgam and composite resins have inherent disadvantages.
