Intra-articular (IA) hyaluronic acid (HA) in the symptomatic treatment of knee osteoarthritis (OA): a meta-analysis of single injection products (IA HA mono-injections)

DiscussionThere are certainly limits to the post-hoc placebo comparison method, for individual studies. But for each synthesis per subgroup or group, the results were properly confirmed using multiple statistical approaches and weighing methods. This meta-analysis suggests that mono-injections produce results similar to multi-injections of intra articular hyaluronic acid in terms of pain relief in the treatment of knee OA.
