Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that joint cartilage thickness can be successfully increased?

Yes. Clinical and experimental studies demonstrate that joint cartilage thickness can be successfully increased using advanced techniques such as particulated juvenile allograft cartilage and stem-cell-derived organoids.
