Safety and efficacy of retreatment with a bioengineered hyaluronate for painful osteoarthritis of the knee: results of the open-label Extension Study of the FLEXX Trial
TL;DR: Repeat injections of IA-BioHA were effective, safe, well tolerated, and not associated with an increase in AEs, such as synovial effusions, as well as secondary efficacy variables improved during the Extension Study.

Fatigue in knee and hip osteoarthritis: the role of pain and physical function
Gijs F. Snijders,Cornelia H.M. van den Ende,Jaap Fransen,Piet L. C. M. van Riel,Mirelle J. P. M. Stukstette,Koen C. Defoort,Marianne A. Arts-Sanders,Frank H. J. van den Hoogen,Alfons A den Broeder +8 more
TL;DR: Important levels of fatigue are common in knee and hip OA patients and after evidence-based tailored conservative treatment targeted to improve pain and physical function, a small decrease in fatigue levels was found.

Improvement in Knee Loading After Use of Specialized Footwear for Knee Osteoarthritis: Results of a Six-Month Pilot Investigation
Najia Shakoor,R.H. Lidtke,Markus A. Wimmer,Rachel A. Mikolaitis,Kharma C. Foucher,Laura E. Thorp,Louis Fogg,Joel A. Block +7 more
TL;DR: There is evidence of a gait adaptation with sustained load reduction even when the mobility shoes are removed, suggesting that footwear may serve as a biomechanical training device to achieve beneficial alterations in gait mechanics for knee OA.

Osteoarthritis after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: the importance of regaining and maintaining full range of motion.
TL;DR: More emphasis needs to be placed on careful and precise examination of knee ROM, as well as rehabilitation to achieve and maintain full symmetric ROM in the long term after ACL reconstruction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Establishing key components of yoga interventions for musculoskeletal conditions: a Delphi survey.
TL;DR: Expert consensus has provided a non-prescriptive reference list for the design and reporting of yoga interventions for musculoskeletal conditions, and is anticipated future research incorporating the Delphi guidelines will facilitate high quality international research in this field, increase homogeneity of intervention components and parameters, and enhance the comparison and reproducibility of research into the use of yoga for the management of musculo- skeletal conditions.

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.
