The evidence behind regenerative medicine.
We group the peer-reviewed literature by treatment and condition — including the rigorous trials where a therapy did not beat placebo. Every study below is real, cited, and links to PubMed.
Why regenerative medicine works
Regenerative orthopedics doesn't mask pain — it targets the biology of healing. By concentrating your body's own platelets, growth factors and cells and delivering them precisely under ultrasound, the goal is to calm inflammation, stimulate repair, and restore function without surgery.
Your own biology
PRP and bone-marrow concentrate are autologous — drawn from you, concentrated, and returned to the injured tissue, releasing growth factors (PDGF, TGF-β, VEGF) that drive collagen synthesis and new blood-vessel formation.
Precision delivery
Real-time ultrasound guidance places the biologic exactly at the lesion — the difference between a clinical-grade injection and a blind one.
Evidence-led, honestly
The science is real but still maturing. Below we group the peer-reviewed evidence by treatment and condition — including the rigorous trials where a therapy did NOT beat placebo. We'd rather you see the whole picture.
Our physicians help build the evidence
Our physicians don't just apply the evidence — they help build it. Selected peer-reviewed work from the RegenCore team:
