A prospective study of mental health care for comorbid depressed mood in older adults with painful osteoarthritis.
TL;DR: Among older adults with painful OA, more than one-quarter had depressed mood, but almost half received no mental health care, suggesting a care gap.

Effects of Phonophoresis of Piroxicam and Ultrasound on Symptomatic Knee Osteoarthritis
TL;DR: PhP was significantly more effective than UT in reducing pain and tended to improve knee functioning in Kellgren-Lawrence grades I to III knee OA, and is suggested as a new, effective method for treatment of symptomatic knee Oa.

Equivalence of a single dose (1200 mg) compared to a three-time a day dose (400 mg) of chondroitin 4&6 sulfate in patients with knee osteoarthritis. Results of a randomized double blind placebo controlled study.
TL;DR: In this paper, the efficacy and safety of a single oral dose of a 1200mg sachet of chondroitin 4&6 sulfate (CS 1200) vs three daily capsules of 400mg (CS 3*400) and vs placebo (superiority study) during 3 months, in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA).

Maurizio Rossini,Ombretta Viapiana,Roberta Ramonda,Gerolamo Bianchi,Ignazio Olivieri,Giovanni Lapadula,Silvano Adami +6 more
TL;DR: This study indicates that IA clodronate provides symptomatic and functional improvements at least as good as those obtained with HA in patients with primary KOA.

Measuring inconsistency in meta-analyses
TL;DR: A new quantity is developed, I 2, which the authors believe gives a better measure of the consistency between trials in a meta-analysis, which is susceptible to the number of trials included in the meta- analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bias in meta-analysis detected by a simple, graphical test
TL;DR: Funnel plots, plots of the trials' effect estimates against sample size, are skewed and asymmetrical in the presence of publication bias and other biases Funnel plot asymmetry, measured by regression analysis, predicts discordance of results when meta-analyses are compared with single large trials.

Alejandro R. Jadad,R. A. Moore,Dawn Carroll,C. Jenkinson,David Reynolds,David J. Gavaghan,Henry J McQuay +6 more
TL;DR: An instrument to assess the quality of reports of randomized clinical trials (RCTs) in pain research is described and its use to determine the effect of rater blinding on the assessments of quality is described.

TL;DR: A system for grading the quality of evidence and the strength of recommendations that can be applied across a wide range of interventions and contexts is developed, and a summary of the approach from the perspective of a guideline user is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Primary, Secondary, and Meta-Analysis of Research
TL;DR: The meta-analysis of research as discussed by the authors is an important feature of the research and evaluation enterprise, and it has been widely used in the field of computer science and computer engineering, especially in the context of education.
