DOI: 10.3389/fsurg.2022.1082591
Abstract: Introduction Reliable biomarkers for the diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) are of paramount clinical value. To date, synovial fluid leukocyte count is the standard surrogate parameter indicating PJI. As D-lactate is almost solely produced… read more here.
