Across
- 4. Completely immovable joint, such as the cranium
- 8. An autoimmune disease where the reaction occurs primarily in synovial tissue; a type of arthritis.
- 9. Bone destroying cells
- 11. A degenerative joint disease affecting the articular cartilage, subchondral bone, and synovium.
- 13. Bone cells
- 14. This type of pillow may be used after a total hip replacement to prevent dislocation of the prosthesis
- 16. Occurs when fat globules are released from yellow bone marrow 12-48 hours after injury, clogging vessels and impairing perfusion to that area; most common are the lungs (3 letters)
- 17. An increase in the lumbar curvature of the spine
- 18. An autoimmune disease that is a result of disturbed immune regulation that causes an exaggerated production of autoantibodies; causes characteristic butterfly rash (3 letters)
- 19. A lateral curving of the spine
Down
- 1. The application of a pulling force to a part of the body
- 2. Work together to allow the body to perform gross, simple, and complex movements. Cover and attach to bones.
- 3. An increase in the convex curvature of the spine
- 5. Slightly movable joint, such as the pelvis
- 6. A heterogeneous group of conditions related to a genetic defect of purine metabolism that results in hyperuricemia.
- 7. Characterized by reduced bone mass, deterioration of the bone matrix, and diminished bone architectural strength; the most prevalent bone disease in the world.
- 10. A syndrome that occurs when there is increased tissue pressure within a limited space that compromised with circulation and the function of the tissue within the confined area; a fasciotomy is one intervention.
- 11. Bone forming cells
- 12. Freely movable joint, such as the elbow & knee
- 15. Small sacs of synovial fluid that cushions joints and protects bony prominences that are at risk for friction.
