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 or hyaluronate in the management of osteochondral lesions of the talus
Am J Sports Med. 2012 Mar;40(3):534-41. Epub 2012 Jan 17.32 patients with osteochondral lesions of the talus, that were unresponsive to other non-operative treatment modalities, were randomized to injections with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) using a plasma rich in growth factors technique (PRGF) or hyaluronic acid (HA).
