D-lactic acidosis is associated with fermentative disturbances and is often marked by elevated levels of D-lactic acid in the blood, ruminal fluid, and synovial fluid in cattle. D-lactic acidosis is linked to various inflammatory manifestations, and although the causative factors have been extensively explored, the exact pathogenesis of the associated inflammation remains elusive. Notably, less attention has been given to D-lactate, a stereoisomer found in the plasma of affected animals, which may lead to D-lactic acidosis.

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries do not heal anatomically on their own and often lead to post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA). ACL reconstruction, though effective, can contribute to PTOA, and donor site morbidity remains a concern with autografts. While ACL repair has traditionally shown poorer outcomes (27% failure rate in the 1990s and early 2000s), a recent review of newer techniques shows promising results and no significant differences in patient-reported outcomes between repair and reconstruction.

Background Metal-on-metal (MoM) bearing surfaces have been implicated as a cause of increased complication rates in total hip arthroplasty (THA), with local and systemic reactions identified. These reactions may cause abnormal laboratory results in common tests that are used to diagnose periprosthetic joint infection (PJI). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the utility of common laboratory studies in the diagnosis of PJI in patients undergoing revision THA with MoM bearings.

Objective: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is an important risk factor for the development of osteoarthritis (OA), increasing OA progression and OA pain. To gain insight into the underlying mechanisms of how DM exacerbates OA processes and OA pain, this study analyzed histological differences of synovial tissues from non-DM and DM patients with OA and correlated these differences with knee pain severity.
Materials And Methods: Synovial tissue was obtained from 12 non-DM and 10 DM patients with advanced knee OA who underwent total knee arthroplasty.
