Group/Cohort |
---|
septic arthritis (group A)
Patients with acute juvenile arthritis with suspicion of bacterial infection,confirmed on a bacteriological plan, either by culture of the articular liquid or by blood culture, or by molecular biology in the articular liquid;
|
inflammatory arthritis (group B)
Patients with idiopathic juvenile arthritis
|
control (group C)
Healthy children who are matched by the age and at the sex in the groups A and B, to analyze elements studied in the blood.
|
- Qualitative analysis of new biological markers (proteic) that discriminate inflammatory and infectious arthritis [ Time Frame: 1 day ]Identify blood sampling proteic markers of Arthritis childhood
- Qualitative analysis of new biological markers (cytokine) that discriminate inflammatory and infectious arthritis [ Time Frame: 1 day ]Identify blood sampling markers (cytokine : interleukin 2, interleukin 4, interleukin 6, interleukin 7, tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF)) of Arthritis childhood
- Qualitative analysis of new cellular markers that discriminate inflammatory and infectious arthritis [ Time Frame: 1 day ]Identify blood sampling cellular markers (lymphocytes and monocytes) of Arthritis childhood
- Qualitative analysis of inflammatory process markers [ Time Frame: 1 day ]Identify articular liquid sampling biomarkers (lymphocytes and interleukins) of Arthritis childhood
