Improved pain when walking with corticosteroid treatment in patients with hip OA .
This study has been identified as potentially high impact.
OE's AI-driven High Impact metric estimates the influence a paper is likely to have by integrating signals from both the journal in which it is published and the scientific content of the article itself.
Developed using state-of-the-art natural language processing, the OE High Impact model more accurately predicts a study's future citation performance than journal impact factor alone.
This enables earlier recognition of clinically meaningful research and helps readers focus on articles most likely to shape future practice.
Intra-articular treatment of hip osteoarthritis: a randomized trial of hyaluronic acid, corticosteroid, and isotonic saline
Osteoarthritis Cartilage. 2006 Feb;14(2):163-70. Epub 2005 Nov 14101 patients with hip osteoarthritis were randomized to receive one of three intra-articular treatments guided by ultrasound. The patients received either an intervention of hyaluronic acid (HA), a corticosteroid intervention, or a treatment of isotonic saline. The primary outcome was "pain on walking" as measured by VAS. Results indicated a small clinical improvement with the hyaluronic acid treatment. However, it cannot be recommended as standard therapy due to its lack of significance over the 3-month study period. Significant improvements were observed in patients receiving the corticosteroid treatment.
