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).
