“…Sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin and observed by light microscopy (Dialux 22 Leitz; Leica Microsystems SpA, Milan, Italy). Histopathological analysis of the cartilage was assessed by the modified score of Mankin [14] (score range 0 to 12, from normal to complete disorganization and hypocellularity).…”

“…Long-term therapy with GCs is often necessary to control the symptoms of osteoarthritis [13]. Important evidence shows that GCs are also used in association with hyaluronic acid (HA) and partially show an ability to reduce pain as well as the progression of disease [14]. A number of studies suggest that HA associated with GCs might have a beneficial effect partially related to a viscoelastic lubricant effect [15, 16].…”

“…The most frequently used methods of treating TMJs dysfunction include pharmacotherapy, physiotherapy, splint therapy, surgery (arthroscopy in particular), and intra-articular punctures [ 3 , 4 ]. The latter may be rinsing of the joint cavity (called arthrocentesis), intra-articular administration of autogenous blood products (e.g., platelet-rich plasma (PRP), or injectable platelet rich fibrin (I-PRF)) or drugs (e.g., corticosteroids) [ 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 ]. In addition, TMJ punctures allow for viscosupplementation, i.e., administration of the synovial fluid’s main component, hyaluronic acid (HA) [ 3 , 4 ].…”
