Abstract

Background: The pathogenesis of osteoarthritis which is one of the most common disorders of musculoskletal system in older ages is still not clear. In this study we searched the relation between nitric oxide (degenerative effect) and cycstatin-C (protease inhibitor) levels in serum and synovial fluid in order to find an explanation to osteoarthritis pathogenesis. Materials and Methods: In unregularly NSAI treated 21 osteoarthritis patients were divided into four groups according to their x-ray and clinical findings. Nitrite values and cycstatin-C values were determined in serum and synovial fluid samples. Results: No significant difference was found between serum and synovial cystatin-C values, whereas synovial nitrite values were lower than serum nitrite levels (p

Özet

Giriş ve Amaç: Yaşlı populasyonun en sık eklem hastalıklarından biri olan osteoartritin patogenezi tam olarak bilinmemektedir. Biz bu çalışmamızda, osteoartritin fızyopatolojisine ışık tutmak amacı ile dejeneratif etkili nitrik oksit ve proteaz inhibitörü sistatin-C'nin serum ve sinovyal sıvı düzeylerini karşılaştırarak, bu parametrelerin osteoartrit evreleri ile olan ilişkisini araştırdık. Gereç ve Yöntem: Düzensiz NSAI (non steroid anti inflamatuar ilaç) tedavisi gören, röntgen ve klinik bulgularına göre evre 2, 3 ve 4'e giren toplam 21 osteoartritli hasta çalışmaya alındı. Hastaların, serum ve sinovyal sıvı örneklerinde, kolorimetrik olarak nitrit ve nefelometrik olarak sistatin-C düzeyleri çalışıldı. Bulgular: Serum ve sinovyal sıvı sistatin-C düzeyleri arasında anlamlı bir fark olmazken, sinovyal sıvı nitrit düzeyleri serum düzeylerinden düşük bulundu (p
