Epidemiology of osteoarthritis: Zoetermeer survey. Comparison of radiological osteoarthritis in a Dutch population with that in 10 other populations.

abstract：:It has been proposed that the process of hypoxic-reperfusion injury contributes to the persistence of synovitis in the inflamed human joint. The generation of pathological, exercise induced, intra-articular pressure leading to occlusion of the synovial microcirculation is central to this mechanism. However, acute trau...
