Joint fluid and serum from rheumatoid and osteoarthritic patients revealed essentially normal values for serum lipids, but phospholipid and cholesterol/phospholipid ( d p ) ratios for synovial fluid resembled lipoprotein fractions of density < 1.063. Data bore no relationship to the type of arthritis. The findings indicate a qualitative difference between serum and joint lipids and pose a question of the nature of handling of fats by inflamed synovial membrane.Liquid0 articular e sero ab patientes con arthritis rheumatoide e osteoarthritis revelava essentialmente normal valores pro le lipidos del sero; sed in le liquido synovial, le phospholipid0 e le proportion c/p (cholesterol/phospholipido) resimilava fractiones lipoproteinic del densitate < 1,063. Le datos monstrava nulle specificitate pro le typo de arthritis interessate. Le constatationes indica un differentia qualitative inter le lipidos del sero e del articulationes e subleva le question del maniera in que le membrana synovial affice le grassias in 1e liquido.
