Summary

This study tested a new treatment for knee osteoarthritis using stem cells from umbilical cord tissue. 31 people aged 55-70 with moderate knee arthritis received the stem cells either with or without a minor knee surgery (arthroscopy). The goal was to see if the treatment could reduce pain and improve knee function. Researchers measured pain, stiffness, and physical ability using standard questionnaires and MRI scans.
