The effects of medicaments, used in the treatment of arthritic
diseases, on the surface tension of the synovial fluid have been
measured. The synovial fluid was obtained from the carpal joints of
freshly slaughtered 'calves and from knee joints of arthritic
patients. Values obtained for the surface tension (~) of the pure
liquids were 47. 6 mN/m and 45. 8 mN/m respectively. The surfGBPce
tensions of the additives and their effect,as a function of
concentration, on the surface tension of synovial fluid are shown
in figure 2. From this diagram it can be seen that bone and
cartilage extract(K u. K-Extrakt) is the most passive additive. The
D-Glu- coseamine sulphate preparations cause protein be deposited
from the syno- vial fluid. This due to the high acidity of these
preparations and the effect disappears when they are buffered at pH
6. With Glycosaminoglycane polysulfate the increase of surface
tension with concentration is lower than expected in the case of
human synovial fluid. This point shill re- quires clarification. x.

WITHIN THE HUMAN KNEE: THE CHANGES DURING QUADRICEPS CONTRACTION IN
NORMAL AND DISEASED JOINTS Malcolm I. V. Jayson INTRODUCTION Joint
disease affects the use of a joint. Conversely, the use of the
joint modifies the joint disease. The first proposition is self-
evident, the latter less so.
