Abstract
BACKGROUND Pulmonary sarcoidosis (SAR) and tuberculosis (TB) are two granulomatous lung-diseases and often pose a diagnostic challenge to a treating physicians. OBJECTIVE The present study aims to explore the diagnostic potential of NMR based serum metabolomics approach to differentiate SAR from TB. MATERIALS AND METHOD The blood samples were obtained from three study groups: SAR (N = 35), TB (N = 28) and healthy normal subjects (NC, N = 56) and their serum metabolic profiles were measured using 1D 1H CPMG (Carr-Purcell-Meiboom-Gill) NMR spectra recorded at 800 MHz NMR spectrometer. The quantitative metabolic profiles were compared employing a combination of univariate and multivariate statistical analysis methods and evaluated for their diagnostic potential using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. RESULTS Compared to SAR, the sera of TB patients were characterized by (a) elevated levels of lactate, acetate, 3-hydroxybutyrate (3HB), glutamate and succinate (b) decreased levels of glucose, citrate, pyruvate, glutamine, and several lipid and membrane metabolites (such as very-low/low density lipoproteins (VLDL/LDL), polyunsaturated fatty acids, etc.). CONCLUSION The metabolic disturbances not only found to be well in concordance with various previous reports, these further demonstrated very high sensitivity and specificity to distinguish SAR from TB patients suggesting serum metabolomics analysis can serve as surrogate method in the diagnosis and clinical management of SAR.

Abstract
Reactive arthritis (ReA) is an aseptic synovitis condition that often develops 2-4 weeks after a distant (extra-articular) infection with Chlamydia, Salmonella, Shigella, Campylobacter, and Yersinia species. The metabolic changes in the synovial fluid (SF) may serve as indicative markers to both improve the diagnostic accuracy and understand the underlying inflammatory pathology of ReA. With this aim, the metabolic profiles of SF collected from ReA (n = 58) and non-ReA, i.e., rheumatoid arthritis (RA, n = 21) and osteoarthritis (OA, n = 20) patients, respectively, were measured using NMR spectroscopy and compared using orthogonal partial least-squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA). The discriminatory metabolic features were further evaluated for their diagnostic potential using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. Compared to RA, two (alanine and carnitine), and compared to OA, six (NAG, glutamate, glycerol, isoleucine, alanine, and glucose) metabolic features were identified as diagnostic biomarkers. We further demonstrated the impact of ReA synovitis condition on the serum metabolic profiles through performing a correlation analysis. The Pearson rank coefficient (r) was estimated for 38 metabolites (profiled in both SF and serum samples obtained in pair from ReA patients) and was found significantly positive for 71% of the metabolites (r ranging from 0.17 to 0.87).

Abstract
Rehabilitation using cryotherapy has widely been used in inflammatory diseases to relieve pain and decrease the disease activity. The aim of this study was to explore the metabolite changes in inflammatory knee-joint synovial fluids following local cryotherapy treatment (ice or cold CO2). We used proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) spectroscopy to assess the metabolite patterns in synovial fluid (SF) in patients with knee arthritis (n = 46) before (D0) and after (D1, 24 h later) two applications of local cryotherapy. Spectra from aqueous samples and organic extracts were obtained with an 11.75 Tesla spectrometer. The metabolite concentrations within the SF were compared between D1 and D0 using multiple comparisons with the application of a false discovery rate (FDR) adjusted at 10% for each metabolite. A total of 32 metabolites/chemical structures were identified including amino acids, organic acids, fatty acids or sugars. Pyruvate, alanine, citrate, threonine was significantly higher at D1 vs D0 (p < 0.05). Tyrosine concentration significantly decreases after cryotherapy application (p < 0.001). We did not observe any effect of gender and cooling technique on metabolite concentrations between D0 and D1 (p > 0.05). The present study provides new insight into a short-term effect of cold stimulus in synovial fluid from patients with knee arthritis. Our observations suggest that the increased level of metabolites involved in energy metabolism may explain the underlying molecular pathways that mediate the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory capacities of cryotherapy.

Abstract
Competition for water between agricultural and non-agricultural economic sectors hampers agricultural production, especially in water-scarce regions. Understanding crop responses in terms of yield and quality to irrigation is an important factor in designing appropriate irrigation management for optimal crop production and quality. Pelargonium sidoides DC., often harvested from the wild, is in high demand in the informal market and for commercial formulations. Agricultural production of high-quality materials through cultivation can help reduce pressure on its wild populations. This study aimed at determining the effects of water and nitrogen on P. sidoides yield and metabolite production. The irrigation treatments applied were 30%, 50%, and 70% of an allowable depletion level (ADL), while the nitrogen (N) levels were 0 (control), 50, 100, and 150 kg ha−1. The 30% ADL resulted in a significantly higher biomass and root yield. Nitrogen at 50 and 100 kg ha−1 resulted in a significantly higher biomass yield, compared to the N control. An increase in sugars and citrate cycle components was observed for the well-watered 30% ADL treatment, whereas water-stressed (50% and 70% ADL) treatments increased alanine, aspartate, and glutamate metabolism, increasing levels of asparagine, 4-aminobutyrate, and arginine. The treatments had no significant effect on the root content of esculin, scopoletin, and umckalin. Water stress induced metabolite synthesis to mitigate the stress condition, whereas under no water stress primary metabolites were synthesized. Moreover, cultivation of P. sidoides as a conservation strategy can increase yield without affecting its bioactivity, while providing sustenance for the rural communities.

Abstract
Aims Metabolic profiling is a top-down method of analysis looking at metabolites, which are the intermediate or end products of various cellular pathways. Our primary objective was to perform a systematic review of the published literature to identify metabolites in human synovial fluid (HSF), which have been categorized by metabolic profiling techniques. A secondary objective was to identify any metabolites that may represent potential biomarkers of orthopaedic disease processes. Methods A systematic review was conducted in accordance with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) guidelines using the MEDLINE, Embase, PubMed, and Cochrane databases. Studies included were case series, case control series, and cohort studies looking specifically at HSF. Results The primary analysis, which pooled the results from 17 published studies and four meeting abstracts, identified over 200 metabolites. Seven of these studies (six published studies, one meeting abstract) had asymptomatic control groups and collectively suggested 26 putative biomarkers in osteoarthritis, inflammatory arthropathies, and trauma. These can broadly be categorized into amino acids plus related metabolites, fatty acids, ketones, and sugars. Conclusion The role of metabolic profiling in orthopaedics is fast evolving with many metabolites already identified in a variety of pathologies. However, these results need to be interpreted with caution due to the presence of multiple confounding factors in many of the studies. Future research should include largescale epidemiological metabolic profiling studies incorporating various confounding factors with appropriate statistical analysis to account for multiple testing of the data.

Abstract
Reactive arthritis (ReA) is a member of seronegative spondyloarthropathy (SSA), which involves an acute/subacute onset of asymmetrical lower limb joint inflammation weeks after a genitourinary/gastrointestinal infection. The diagnosis is clinical because it is difficult to culture the microbes from synovial fluid. Arthritis patients with a similar clinical picture but lapsed history of an immediate preceding infection that do not fulfill the diagnostic criteria of other members of SSA, such as ankylosing spondylitis, psoriatic arthritis, and arthritis associated with inflammatory bowel disease, are labeled as peripheral undifferentiated spondyloarthropathy (uSpA). Both ReA and uSpA patients show a strong association with class I major histocompatibility complex allele, HLA-B27, and a clear association with an infectious trigger; however, the disease mechanism is far from clear. Because the clinical picture is largely dominated by rheumatoid-arthritis (RA)-like features including elevated levels of inflammatory markers (such as ESR, CRP, etc.), these overlapping symptoms often confound the clinical diagnosis and represent a clinical dilemma, making treatment choice more generalized. Therefore, there is a compelling need to identify biomarkers that can support the diagnosis of ReA/uSpA. In the present study, we performed NMR-based serum metabolomics analysis and demonstrated that ReA/uSpA patients are clearly distinguishable from controls and further that these patients can also be distinguished from the RA patients based on the metabolic profiles, with high sensitivity and specificity. The discriminatory metabolites were further subjected to area under receiver operating characteristic curve analysis, which led to the identification of four metabolic entities (i.e., valine, leucine, arginine/lysine, and phenylalanine) that could differentiate ReA/uSpA from RA.
