original publication.
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.
Platelet-Rich Plasma Intra-articular Knee Injections Show No Superiority Versus Viscosupplementation: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Am J Sports Med. 2015 Jul;43(7):1575-82192 patients with unilateral osteoarthritis or chondropathy of the knee were randomized to receive 3 intra-articular injections of either hyaluronic acid or platelet-rich plasma. The purpose of the study was to compare the two treatments in terms of clinical results up to 12 months after treatment in this patient population. Results indicated significant benefits of both treatments in all clinical outcomes over the 12 month trial period; however, no significant differences were identified between the two treatments at any time point.
