Acute flares of pseudogout (due to CPPD crystal deposition disease) can be clinically indistinguishable from acute gout but favor larger joints (e.g., knee, wrist) rather than the first ...

Gout and pseudogout have similar symptoms, but very different causes and treatment. We’ll tell you about the similarities and differences when it comes to pseudogout vs gout.

CPPD deposition with rod-shaped crystals were demonstrated under the polarized microscope (Figure 4) and the crystal was shown in hematoxylin and eosin stain.

Calcium pyrophosphate deposition (CPPD) disease is arthritis caused by calcium pyrophosphate (CPP) crystals (Figure 1). Until recently, CPPD disease has been referred to as pseudogout.

Scientists have discovered a centrosymmetric crystal that behaves as though it is chiral – absorbing left- and right-handed ...

IL-6r inhibition has been studied since IL-6 was first discovered in 1989 as a mediator of inflammatory responses in gout and CPPD, when it was shown that both CPP and MSU crystals can stimulate ...

Acute CPP crystal arthritis, historically called "pseudogout," is the most widely recognized form of CPPD disease.

X-RAY demonstration of multiple articular chondrocalcinosis has been advanced as a useful preliminary diagnostic sign for pseudogout, a disease marked by deposition of calcium pyrophosphate dihydra ...

Calcium pyrophosphate deposition (CPPD) disease is a common, symptomatic arthritis, but until now there have been there are no validated classification criteria. This has hampered research in this ...

Numerous rhomboid-shaped positively birefringent crystals within the neutrophils and extracellularly are seen with polarized light microscopy. Gram stain is negative for bacteria.
