Associations of Longitudinal Multiparametric MRI Findings and Clinical Outcomes in Intra-Articular Injections for Knee Osteoarthritis.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundOsteoarthritis (OA) is a complex disease marked by the degradation of articular cartilage.
objectiveThis study aimed to explore the relationship between cartilage volume/thickness and clinical outcomes in knee OA patients treated with intra-articular injections over one year.
methodsTwenty-four patients with mild-to-moderate OA were retrospectively analyzed using knee MRI. OA features were assessed semiquantitatively with the Whole-Organ Magnetic Resonance Imaging Score (WORMS), while cartilage thickness and volume in the medial femoral condyle (MFC) and medial tibial plateau (MTP) were measured. T1ρ and T2 values for MFC cartilage were also recorded. Clinical outcomes were evaluated using the Korean Western Ontario and McMaster Universities (K-WOMAC) and Knee Injury Osteoarthritis Outcomes (KOOS) scores. Spearman's rank test assessed the associations between imaging changes and clinical outcomes.
resultsThe baseline MTP and MFC cartilage thickness and MTP cartilage volume showed significant correlations with clinical outcomes. Additionally, less progressive cartilage loss in the medial femorotibial joint (MFTJ) and overall joint was linked to a better clinical response over 12 months.
conclusionsIn conclusion, thicker baseline MFTJ cartilage and minimal cartilage loss were associated with favorable clinical outcomes in knee OA patients receiving intra-articular injections.
