  • Title: Interarticular differences in oncotic pressure of canine synovial fluid.
    Author: Simkin PA, Pickerell CC.
    Journal: J Rheumatol; 1984 Feb; 11(1):14-6. PubMed ID: 6699829.
    Abstract:
    The colloid osmotic pressure of synovial fluid from canine shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, and knees varied significantly from one joint to the next with the lowest values regularly present in wrists. These differences imply a corresponding, regular variation in microvascular function which may contribute to the distribution patterns of specific rheumatic diseases.
