Osteoarthritis of the knee

Ezzo et al. (2001)

7†

Two trials compared acupuncture with wait list: both found statistically significant results; three trials compared acupuncture to placebo: two found statistically significant outcomes; two trials compared acupuncture to physical therapy: both reported no significant finding for acupuncture.

Acupuncture may play a role in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis; more well-designed trials are necessary to reach a conclusive decision.

* RCT = randomized, controlled trial.

† Review and analysis contain some trials that were not randomized.
