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.
The Effectiveness of Platelet-Rich Plasma in the Treatment of Tendinopathy
Am J Sports Med. 2017 Jan;45(1):226-23318 randomized controlled trials were included in this network meta-analysis to evaluate the effect of platelet-rich plasma injections in the management of tendinopathies and if outcomes are affected by the type of preparation. The results from this study indicate that platelet-rich plasma is an effective treatment for tendinopathies and that leukocyte-rich platelet-rich plasma preparations appear to have the greatest effect. However, further trials that minimize the potential for bias are needed that clearly outline the type of preparation being used to add to this body of evidence.
