The diagnostic value of the finding of cytophagocytic macrophages (CPM) in the joint fluid of patients with Reiter's disease has been re-examined. CPM were found in 46% of Reiter's disease fluids and in 45% of other inflammatory knee joint fluids. Higher CPM scores, on a 4-point grading, were commoner in Reiter's disease but the difference was not statistically significant. Further, although the graded polymorphonuclear leucocyte phagocytosis shown by CPM was greater in Reiter's disease this also was not significant. It is concluded that the presence of CPM in joint fluid is of little discriminating value.
对赖特综合征患者关节液中噬细胞性巨噬细胞(CPM)的诊断价值进行了重新评估。在46%的赖特综合征关节液和45%的其他炎性膝关节液中发现了CPM。在4分制评分中,较高的CPM评分在赖特综合征中更为常见,但差异无统计学意义。此外,尽管CPM显示的分级多形核白细胞吞噬作用在赖特综合征中更强,但这也不显著。结论是关节液中CPM的存在鉴别价值不大。
