Comparison between intrarticular injection of hyaluronic acid, oxygen ozone, and the combination of both in the treatment of knee osteoarthrosis

This randomized controlled trial compared intra-articular injections of hyaluronic acid (HA), oxygen-ozone (O2O3), and their combination in treating knee osteoarthritis (OA). Seventy patients were randomized into three groups and received weekly injections over five weeks. The study found that the combination of HA and O2O3 provided superior outcomes in reducing

Integration of focal vibration and intra-articular oxygen-ozone therapy in rehabilitation of painful knee osteoarthritis

This study evaluated the combined effect of mechanical focal vibration (mFV) therapy and intra-articular oxygen-ozone (O₂O₃) injections for knee osteoarthritis (OA). The results showed that this integrated therapy significantly improved pain reduction and functional mobility compared to O₂O₃ injections alone. The study involved 100 patients aged 50-80 with moderate to
