Answer to Question 1

Juxta means close to or adjoining. Juxtaarticular demineralization refers to the loss of minerals in the bone tissue close to or adjoining a joint. This occurs in patients with rheumatoid arthritis due to the constant inflammatory reaction within the joint.

Answer to Question 2

Humeral relates to humerus, a bone in the arm. Humoral relates to humor (fluid). Humoral refers to the component of the immune system that is not cellular, and more specifically, refers to antibodies that were originally thought to be in the body humor (ie, body fluids).

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
