-
Platelet-rich plasma added to hyaluronic acid for knee osteoarthritis
This study tests whether a single injection of hyaluronic acid plus autologous platelet-rich plasma helps reduce knee OA symptoms more than hyaluronic acid alone in adults with moderate knee OA.
-
Hyaluronic Acid Plus PRP Injection for Knee Osteoarthritis
This study tests whether a single HA injection combined with a patient’s own PRP is better at easing knee OA pain than HA alone.
-
Personalized pain relief for knee OA using central nervous system-based duloxetine
This study tests whether duloxetine can improve walking and daily activity in people with knee osteoarthritis by comparing it to a placebo.
-
Pressure Biofeedback vs Bolster Foam Feedback for Knee Osteoarthritis
We’re testing whether pressure biofeedback training helps people with knee osteoarthritis improve pain, function, and muscle activation more than bolster foam feedback over eight weeks.
-
Core stabilization plus knee exercises for women with knee osteoarthritis
This project will test whether adding six weeks of core stabilization exercises to routine knee physiotherapy helps women aged 40–65 with moderate knee osteoarthritis have less pain and better function.
-
Brain scans to find links between brain activity and knee replacement outcomes
This study uses brain MRI before and after knee replacement to see if patterns of brain activity can predict which patients will be satisfied with their surgery.
-
Self-administered acupressure for knee osteoarthritis in older adults at Hong Kong community centers
This project tests whether a self-taught acupressure program can reduce knee pain and improve function for older adults with knee osteoarthritis who attend Hong Kong community centers.
-
Vietnamese Pain Self-Efficacy Questionnaire for people with knee osteoarthritis.
This project tests whether the Vietnamese Pain Self-Efficacy Questionnaire gives reliable and meaningful results for people aged 50 and older with knee osteoarthritis.
-
Embolization treatment for knee osteoarthritis
This study is testing a new treatment called embolization therapy to see if it can help people with knee osteoarthritis feel less pain and move better.
-
Comparing retro-walking and forward-walking on an underwater treadmill for knee osteoarthritis
This study is testing whether walking backwards or forwards on an underwater treadmill helps people with knee osteoarthritis feel less pain and move better.
-
Effects of Feldenkrais Exercises on Knee Osteoarthritis
This study is testing if Feldenkrais exercises can help people with knee osteoarthritis feel less pain and move better compared to regular physical therapy.
-
Comparing genicular artery embolization with steroid knee injections for osteoarthritis pain
This trial will test whether genicular artery embolization (using Nexsphere-F) reduces knee osteoarthritis pain more than a standard corticosteroid knee injection.
-
Reducing knee pain with Genicular Artery Embolization
This study is testing if a new procedure called Genicular Artery Embolization can help people with knee osteoarthritis pain who haven't found relief from other treatments.
-
Vutiglabridin for knee osteoarthritis
We will test whether a once-daily oral pill called vutiglabridin reduces pain and improves function in adults 40–75 with moderate knee osteoarthritis.
-
Registry for Genicular Artery Embolization in Knee Osteoarthritis
This study is trying to see if a new procedure called genicular artery embolization can help reduce knee pain in adults with osteoarthritis who aren't able to have surgery.
-
Understanding muscle power and control to prevent falls in knee osteoarthritis patients
This study is trying to see if measuring muscle power and control can better predict fall risks in older adults with knee osteoarthritis than just looking at muscle strength alone.
