Elevation of Pro-Inflammatory Cytokine Levels Following Intra-Articular Fractures-A Systematic Review

That Minh Pham et al.

Summary: Patients with intra-articular fractures have significantly elevated pro-inflammatory cytokines in synovial fluid after injury, along with increased levels of anti-inflammatory cytokines. However, concentrations of IL-13, CTX-II, and aggrecan did not show significant differences between compared cohorts. Further standardized studies focusing on the ratio of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines at different time points are needed to better understand the inflammatory responses in intra-articular fractures.
