Intra-articular 2.5% polyacrylamide hydrogel for the treatment of knee osteoarthritis: an observational proof-of-concept cohort study.

CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest beneficial effects of IA injection of PAAG on knee OA symptoms, even in the long term (1 year). This initial estimation of effectiveness is promising but needs to be confirmed in a randomised study with adequate measures taken to reduce risk of bias.
