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.
Efficacy of Platelet-Rich Plasma for Chronic Tennis Elbow: A Double-Blind, Prospective, Multicenter, Randomized Controlled Trial of 230 Patients
Am J Sports Med. 2013 Dec 12.Exclusive Author Interview
Dr. Allan Mishra discusses the efficacy of platelet-rich plasma for chronic tennis elbow
230 patients presented with chronic tennis elbow were enrolled and randomized into either a leukocyte enriched platelet-rich plasma treatment group (L-PRP) or an active control group. This study was followed-up at 12 and 24 weeks to evaluate clinical efficacy based on pain and local elbow tenderness. At the 12-week follow-up, no significant differences were observed between the two groups. However, at the 24-week follow-up, clinically significant differences were found, favouring L-PRP-treated patients for outcome measures in pain and local tenderness. Rate of adverse events was similar between groups.
