Background: Crystal arthritides represent the most common inflammatory rheumatologic condition. While prevalence of gouty arthritis by monosodium urate (MSU) is well established, prevalences calciumpyrophosphat (CPP) and basic calcium pyrophosphate (ARP) are less clear. We herein sought to assess characteristics crystal at our institution, biggest tertiary center in Switzerland. Methods: A total 5036 synovial fluid (SF) samples were analyzed with regard positivity as joint, age, sex distribution affected patients. furthermore compared non-inflammatory SF for yields their Polymorphonuclear (PMN) fractions. Results: About half all derived from knee joints, a male/female ratio up 10.1:1 among MSU-positive, clear shift towards elder patients CPP-arthritis was seen. These findings line previous studies suggest good comparability cohort. Of note, 21.9% CPP positive, whereas 15.3% 9.5% positive MSU ARP/alizarin-red respectively. Importantly, crystals predominant (58.9%) (65.7%) samples. By contrast, significantly more often associated synovitis (p < 0.001). Interestingly, higher PMN fractions found MSU-positive 0.01), similar trend seen CPP-positive Conclusions: represented frequent form center. Higher subclinical inflammation provide further arguments earlier anti-inflammatory uric acid-lowering therapies deposits.

Although calcium pyrophosphate deposition (CPPD) has been known since the 1960s, our understanding of its pathogenesis remains rudimentary. This review aims to illustrate mechanisms underlying (CPP) crystal formation and explore future directions in research. By examining various perspectives, from basic research clinical imaging assessments, as well new emerging methodologies, we can establish a starting point for deeper CPPD pathogenesis.

Raman spectroscopy is proposed as a next-generation method for the identification of monosodium urate (MSU) and calcium pyrophosphate (CPP) crystals in synovial fluid. As interpretation spectra requires specific expertise, not directly applicable clinicians. We developed an approach to demonstrate that process can be automated with use machine learning techniques. The system tested point-of-care-setting at our outpatient rheumatology department.
