Whether ultrasound or MRI is more sensitive or specific for synovitis and erosions in a given superficial joint is not yet clear.
As shown in table 2, the inhibition by TCZ of joint damage progression even in the presence of active disease affected JSN and erosions in a similar way.
The morphological operators are set to perform dilation and erosion in parallel with a maximum SE boundary of 7 × 7, allowing morphological gradient types to be obtained for any combination of flat programmable SE shape or size that can be realised within the SE boundaries, where both SE structures are defined independently.
To improve the resistance of the hydrotransport pipe steel to corrosion and erosion in oil sand slurry, a Ni Co Al2O3 composite coating was fabricated by electrolytic deposition on X-65 pipe steel substrate.
Here we demonstrate, using IL-17 receptor deficient (IL-17R-/) mice, a requirement for IL-17R signaling in immune reactivity and progression of synovitis and bone erosion in a T cell mediated mBSA arthritis model and chronic streptococcal cell wall arthritis.
Between 2001 and 2005, experiments and observations were carried out at the inland drift-sand area Kootwijkerzand (central Netherlands) to know more about the extent, the intensity and the role of wind and splash erosion in a drift-sand ecosystem.
This experiment was designed to evaluate the effect of two olive mill wastes (olive leaves and "alperujo") on soil properties and soil erosion in a rain fed olive grove in SE Spain.
We demonstrated that treatment of rats with T-614 dramatically suppressed disease progression, and markedly protected affected joints against cartilage destruction and bone erosion in a dose-dependent manner.
We have shown that PCI-32765 potently and dose-dependently reversed clinical arthritis and prevented cartilage and bone erosion in an aggressive late-stage CIA model, and in a CAIA model.
