Special Issue on “Arthritis and its Treatment” Aims and Scope Journal of Exercise, Sports & Orthopedics is a peer reviewed open access journal, exclusively designed for the international Scientific community that addresses ongoing research on Exercise, Sports & Orthopedics, which aims to provide a unique platform for publishing high quality research work. The journal aims to frame up an outstanding special issue on Arthritis and its Treatment. Arthritis involves inflammation of one or more joints. There are different forms of arthritis but, Osteoarthritis and Rheumatoid arthritis are common. Arthritis is more prevalent in women than men. Arthritis generally starts between the ages of 30 and 60. As per the recent statistics, over one million Americans are suffering from arthritis. JESO invites manuscripts for its special Issue on "Arthritis and its treatment" as a step to bring the current research in it, in an easily accessible way to the world with your participation. Topics This special issue deals with the topics of the following but not limited to Osteoarthritis Rheumatoid arthritis Gout and pseudo-gout Signs, Symptoms & Causes of Arthritis Septic arthritis Ankylosing Spondylitis Juvenile idiopathic arthritis Still's disease Physical therapy and occupational therapy Medications Impact of various factors on Arthritis Psoriatic Arthritis Reactive Arthritis Induced Arthritis Arthritis in Children Diseases associated with Arthritis Arthroscopic Surgery Crystal Arthropathy Pain Management Submissions Authors are invited to submit articles which address the progress and current standing of Arthritis and its treatment.

Imaging in Gout and Other Crystal-Related Arthropathies 625
ImaginginGoutand Other Crystal-Related Arthropathies a, b Patrick Omoumi, MD, MSc, PhD *, Pascal Zufferey, MD , c b Jacques Malghem, MD , Alexander So, FRCP, PhD KEYWORDS Gout Crystal arthropathy Calcification Imaging Radiography Ultrasound Dual-energy CT MRI KEY POINTS Crystal deposits in and around the joints are common and most often encountered as inci- dental imaging findings in asymptomatic patients. In the chronic setting, imaging features of crystal arthropathies are usually characteristic and allow the differentiation of the type of crystal arthropathy, whereas in the acute phase and in early stages, imaging signs are often nonspecific, and the final diagnosis still relies on the analysis of synovial fluid. Radiography remains the primary imaging tool in the workup of these conditions; ultra- sound has been playing an increasing role for superficially located crystal-induced ar- thropathies, and computerized tomography (CT) is a nice complement to radiography for deeper sites. When performed in the acute stage, MRI may show severe inflammatory changes that could be misleading; correlation to radiographs or CT should help to distinguish crystal arthropathies from infectious or tumoral conditions. Dual-energy CT is a promising tool for the characterization of crystal arthropathies, partic- ularly gout as it permits a quantitative assessment of deposits, and may help in the follow-up of patients. INTRODUCTION The deposition of microcrystals within and around the joint is a common phenomenon. Intra-articular microcrystals

(Crystal Arthropathies) Gout and Pseudogout Pathophysiology
Gout and pseudogout (crystal arthropathies) Gout and pseudogout pathophysiology Gout and pseudogout are crystal arthropathies Crystals of urate (in gout) and calcium pyrophosphate (in pseudogout) are precipitated in joints Neutrophils phagocytose the crystals whilst releasing pro-inflammatory cytokines which trigger attacks Asymptomatic deposition of crystals between attacks is normal; what triggers an attack is unknown Risk factors for gout (causes of hyperuricaemia) Alcohol Chronic renal disease Hypertension, hyperlipidaemia, diabetes i.e. cardiovascular risk factors (majority of cases) Medications o Diuretics, aspirin Malignancy (high cell turnover) o Lymphoproliferative and myeloproliferative disorders Certain genetic disorders e.g. G6PD Risk factors for pseudogout Association with trauma and osteoarthritis Hyperparathyroidism Wilson’s disease Haemochromatosis Loop diuretics causing hypomagnasaemia Presentation of gout (presents in four ways): 1. Acute urate synovitis (acute attack of gout – what is mainly covered here). o Classically, acute gout affects the first MTP (podagra): initial presentation in 50%. o Other joints include ankles, wrists, fingers & knees. o Clinical features are sudden onset exquisite tenderness, swelling, redness. 2. Polyarticular gout o Initial presentation in 10%, particularly elderly women 3. May become chronic where it can resemble rheumatoid o May have gouty tophi: smooth, white deposits of uric acid in the skin and around joints 4. Urate renal stone formation o Can precede gout in 15%

Polyarthritis and Its Differential Diagnosis Nilüfer Alpay-Kanıtez1 , Selda Çelik2 , Cemal Bes2 Abstract
DOI: 10.5152/eurjrheum.2019.19145 Invited Review Polyarthritis and its differential diagnosis Nilüfer Alpay-Kanıtez1 , Selda Çelik2 , Cemal Bes2 Abstract Polyarthritis is a term used when at least five joints are affected with arthritis. Several different dis- eases ranging from rheumatoid arthritis to infection diseases can lead to polyarthritis. Anamnesis, physical examination, laboratory findings and imaging methods are important tools to differential diagnosis. Keywords: Polyarthritis, differential diagnosis, laboratory investigations Introduction Polyarthritis refers to a joint disease that involves at least five joints. One or more signs of inflammation, including pain, movement restriction, swelling, warmth, and redness, are seen in the joints involved. In the event that pain is the only symptom, it is difficult to differentiate polyarthritis from the causes of polyarticular joint pain (PJP), such as fibromyalgia or osteoarthritis. Imaging methods such as ultra- sonography and magnetic resonance may be helpful in differentiating arthralgia from arthritis. Table 1 illustrates the diseases and their clinical characteristics that are frequently seen in clinical practice and cause non-inflammatory PJP. In some cases, polyarthritis can be severe enough to necessitate the admission of patients to emergency services, or it can be asymptomatic and may remain undiagnosed for months. Several diseases ranging from rheumatic arthritis (RA) to infectious diseases can lead to polyarthritis. Anamnesis, physical exam- ination, laboratory findings, and imaging methods are the tools that support an accurate diagnosis. Herein, we aimed to underline the differential diagnosis of a patient with polyarthritis and in doing so, contribute to clinical practice.
