The experience of psoriatic arthritis patients receiving biological treatment : an interpretative phenomenological analysis by Schepelern, Eva K.

“…It is argued that this research extends the current knowledge base in counselling psychology on the psychological aspects of skin conditions such as psoriasis to what it is like to have both psoriasis and arthritis, whilst also being relevant to counselling psychologists working with psychological aspects of medical conditions, which is proposed to hold a promising future for the field.…”

An analytical study of the role of selected metal ions in bone and joint diseases by Furst, Alexandra

“…The speciation of the titanium (III)/titanium (IV) complexes in the biological matrices was investigated with Fourier transform infra red (FTIR) spectroscopy and high field proton nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) with a Hahn spin echo pulse sequence. The chemical nature of non-protein bound iron present in knee joint synovial fluid obtained from RA patients was also investigated by use of NMR…”
