Figure 5From: Intraarticular injection of hyaluronan prevents cartilage erosion, periarticular fibrosis and mechanical allodynia and normalizes stance time in murine knee osteoarthritisJoint Tissue Pathology Scores showing the protective effects of prophylactic hyaluronan (HA) on murine joint osteoarthritis (OA). (a) Cartilage erosion scores and (b) fibrosis scores for the OA (n = 8) and OA + HA (n = 8) groups illustrates the statistically significant and area-specific effects of HA on murine OA pathology.
