Free Radicals and Inflammation: Protection of Synovial Fluid by Superoxide Dismutase
Abstract
Enzymatically generated superoxide radical. by reacting with hydrogen peroxide to produce the hydroxyl radical, depolymerized purified hyaluronic acid and bovine synovial fluid. Since phagocytizing polymorphonuclear leukocytes produce superoxide radicals, this reaction is suggested and shown to be quantitatively feasible as the in vivo mechanism of synovial fluid degradation in an inflamed joint. Superoxide dismutase, and catalase protect synovial fluid against such degradation in vitro.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
