Platelet-Rich Plasma in the Treatment of Knee Osteoarthritis: A Bibliometric Analysis of Global Research Trends
Knee osteoarthritis (OA) represents a major cause of pain and disability among older adults. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has emerged as a promising biologic therapy aimed at modulating inflammation and promoting cartilage repair.
