Past, Present and Future of Arthroscopic Research: A Scientometric Analysis of Research Frontiers in Arthroscopy.

Purpose: Active research in arthroscopy in all its domains has been transcending into evidence-backed clinical practice over years. A look-back at the research developments in arthroscopy using scientometry for the past thirty years will help the researchers identify what has been investigated so far, and what needs to be done in the future.

Methods: We used the Web of Science-core collection database as the source for data retrieval.

Platelet-rich plasma therapy ensures pain reduction in the management of lateral epicondylitis - a PRISMA-compliant network meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.

Objectives: Analyze the effectiveness of PRP therapy in comparison to other available treatments in the management of lateral epicondylitis (LE).

Materials And Methods: We conducted electronic database searches in PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library until June 2021 for RCTs analyzing the efficacy of PRP in the management of LE. VAS for pain, DASH score, and PRETEE score were the outcomes analyzed.
