Arm 2

Arm Type

Experimental

Active Comparator

Arm Label

Glucose group

hyaluronic acid group

Arm Description

The glucose group underwent 3 sessions of 6cc 25% glucose injection with a 2-week interval between each treatment

The HA group was administered intra-articular HA ((Hyruan Plus® , average MW 3000 kD; LG Life Sciences Ltd, Korea)) for sessions with a 1-week interval between each treatment.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC)
The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC) is widely used in the evaluation of Hip and Knee Osteoarthritis. It is a self-administered questionnaire consisting of 24 items divided into 3 subscales

Secondary Outcome Measures

Lequesne index
The Lequesne Index is a 10-question survey given to patients with osteoarthritis of the knee. It has five questions pertaining to pain or discomfort, 1 question dealing with maximum distance walked, and four questions about activities of daily living
visual analogue scale (VAS)
pain intensity was measured by VAS from 0 to 10

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The study is a prospective, randomized controlled, double-blind study. The enrolled patients were randomly divided into two groups: the intraarticular glucose group and the intraarticular HA group.
Detailed Description
The glucose group underwent 3 sessions of 6cc 25% glucose injection with a 2-week interval between each treatment. The HA group was administered intra-articular HA ((Hyruan PlusR, average MW 3000 kD; LG Life Sciences Ltd, Korea)) for sessions with a 1-week interval between each treatment. The results were measured with the visual analogue scale (VAS), Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), and Lequesne index. A baseline for each test was measured before treatment and then the effects of the treatments were measured by each test at 6 and 12 weeks after treatment
