No benefit of PRP injections for recovery following grade I/II hamstring injury .
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.
Rationale, secondary outcome scores and 1-year follow-up of a randomised trial of platelet-rich plasma injections in acute hamstring muscle injury: the Dutch Hamstring Injection Therapy study
Br J Sports Med. 2015 Sep;49(18):1206-1280 patients with grade I or II hamstring injury were randomized to receive two injections of either platelet-rich plasma (PRP) or placebo. The purpose of this study was to compare time to return to sport between groups, as well as evaluate subjective and clinical outcome measures between groups over 26 weeks post-injury and re-injury rate over the first year of follow-up. Results demonstrated no significant differences between groups in the time to return to sport, or in any other secondary outcome measure.
