Reduced Pain with HA (HYAJOINT Plus) Combined with PRP vs PRP Injections at 6 Months for Knee OA
High Impact
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.

Eighty-five patients with symptomatic knee osteoarthritis (OA) were randomized to receive 2 injections consisting of a single intra-articular injection of hyaluronic acid (HA) followed by platelet-rich plasma (PRP; n=43) or the single injection group consisting of PRP alone (n=42). The primary outcome of interest was pain evaluated using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) at 1,3, and 6-months follow-up. Secondary outcomes of interest included the following: the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) and its associated subscales (pain, stiffness, and function), Lequesne index, single leg stance test (SLS), patient satisfaction, and usage of acetaminophen which all secondary outcomes were evaluated at 1, 3, and 6-months follow-up. Results of this study demonstrated that VAS was statistically significantly improved at 6-months follow-up in the combined injection group vs PRP alone (p=0.020). For secondary outcomes, WOMAC function and total scores, Lequesne Index, SLS, and patient satisfaction scores were not statistically significantly different between 2 groups at all timepoints (p>0.05). However, WOMAC pain and stiffness were both statistically significantly higher in the combined injection group vs PRP alone at 1-month follow-up (p=0.025, p=0.011; respectively). Furthermore, the consumption of analgesics was not statistically significantly different between both groups (p>0.05).
