Virtual Reality in Patients With Knee Osteoarthritis
One of the main challenges facing the therapist in the treatment of adhesive capsulitis is to motivate the patient throughout conventional therapy. As noted in a recent review, individuals are more interested in leisure activities rather than performing repetitive tasks during therapy. Virtual reality (VR) is a three-dimensional computer-aided programme …

Effect of Probiotic Supplements on Osteoarthritis Outcomes
Dysbiosis of the gut microbiota is believed to contribute to the development and progression of osteoarthritis (OA), suggesting a role for probiotics in the treatment of OA. Animal studies have shown that certain probiotic strains decrease the inflammatory responses, pain sensitization and OA progression. There are, however, few clinical studies …
Wrist Denervation Vs Exercise in Wrist Osteoarthritis
A randomized controlled trial comparing partial wrist denervation to a self-managed exercise therapy program in 140 patients with wrist osteoarthritis.
Ischemic Preconditioning in Osteoarthritis and Back Pain
We are examining the use of restricted blood flow, through full occlusion, on a single thigh for 50 minutes (5 minutes on, 5 minutes off), completed every other day for 2 weeks to improve function in individuals with knee osteoarthritis and low back pain.
Genicular Artery Embolisation for Knee Osteoarthritis II
This clinical study is designed as a double-blind sham controlled randomised trial with the option of sham group crossover to receive the GAE treatment at 6 months after unblinding. This study will determine if embolisation of abnormal neovasculature arising from branches of the genicular arteries reduces pain in patients with …

study will be conducted at faculty of physical therapy cairo university to investigate the effect of combined kinetic chain exercises on static and dynamic hamstring and quadriceps strength in knee osteoarthritis patients
Perineural Prolotherapy in Chronic Knee Osteoarthritis Pain.
The aim of this study is to test whether the addition of dextrose to perineural injections is superior to local anesthetic alone, as some initial data have indicated. To enhance the potential therapeutic effect, we will proceed to a 4-point injection technique, targeting 4 genicular nerves (superomedial, superolateral, inferomedial, recurrent …
Individual Differences in Gait and Osteoarthritis Pain
The goal of this observational study is to look at inter-individual differences in knee osteoarthritis (OA) walking pain and performance.
