Randomized Controlled Trial of Diclofenac Sodium Gel in Knee Osteoarthritis
TL;DR: Over a 3-month treatment period, topical treatment with DSG achieved statistically and clinically significant improvements of pain and measures of physical function in patients with knee osteoarthritis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparing the efficacy of aquatic exercises and land-based exercises for patients with knee osteoarthritis.
TL;DR: Both aquatic and land-based exercise programmes are effective in reducing pain, improving knee range of motions, six-minute walk test and knee-related quality of life in people with knee osteoarthritis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Advancements and frontiers in nano-based 3D and 4D scaffolds for bone and cartilage tissue engineering
TL;DR: The different approaches used for cartilage and bone tissue engineering are discussed, including Electrospun nanofibrous scaffolds and hydrogel scaffolds, which mimic the native extracellular matrix of bone, providing a support for bone and cartilage tissue engineering.
Journal ArticleDOI
Use and Costs of Prescription Medications and Alternative Treatments in Patients with Osteoarthritis and Chronic Low Back Pain in Community‐Based Settings
TL;DR: This study aims to evaluate the use and direct medical costs of pharmacologic and alternative treatments for patients with osteoarthritis and chronic low back pain.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical comorbidities, treatment patterns, and direct medical costs of patients with osteoarthritis in usual care: a retrospective claims database analysis
TL;DR: The patient burden of OA was characterized by a high prevalence of comorbidities, with significantly greater use of pain-related and adjunctive medications, and higher direct medical costs.

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.
