Is it possible to predict which patients are most likely to benefit from intra ‐articular corticosteroid injections? A systematic review

ConclusionSeveral patient features have been identified as positive predictors of outcomes following IACIs. However, this systematic review has identified inconsistent and variable findings across the existing literature. Further research with standardization of IACI administration and outcome measures is required to facilitate further analysis of the reliability and significance of predictive factors for response to IACIs.
