Artwork showing rheumatoid arthritis of the knee
Arthritis. Artwork of a front view of a human knee joint affected by rheumatoid arthritis. The knee cap (patella, yellow) is at upper centre, between the thigh bone (femur, above), and the shin bone (tibia) and fibula (below). The protective layer of cartilage (pink) covering the joint has worn away in patches. The fibrous pink tissues are tendons and ligaments, which hold muscles and bones together inside joints. Rheumatoid arthritis occurs when the immune system attacks the bones and soft tissues of a joint. The joints may become swollen, painful, stiff and deformed. Treatment is with anti-inflammatory drugs

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork showcases the devastating effects of rheumatoid arthritis on the knee joint. In this front view, we witness the intricate anatomy of a human knee compromised by this chronic autoimmune disease. The vibrant yellow hue at the upper center represents the knee cap (patella), sandwiched between the majestic thigh bone (femur) above and the sturdy shin bone (tibia) and fibula below. However, what truly captures our attention is the absence of pink cartilage that should ideally protect this joint. Instead, patches of worn-away cartilage reveal a distressing reality faced by those afflicted with rheumatoid arthritis. Surrounding these damaged areas are fibrous pink tissues representing tendons and ligaments, crucial elements that hold muscles and bones together within joints. Rheumatoid arthritis unleashes an immune system attack on both bones and soft tissues in affected joints, leading to swelling, excruciating pain, stiffness, and deformities over time. Fortunately, medical intervention offers hope through anti-inflammatory drugs as part of treatment for managing symptoms associated with this debilitating condition. This thought-provoking artwork from Science Photo Library serves as a powerful reminder of how diseases like rheumatoid arthritis can profoundly impact one's quality of life while highlighting ongoing efforts in medicine to combat such disorders affecting millions worldwide.
