OKS period: 0—baseline, 1—3 months postinjection, 2—6 months postinjection, 3—12 months postinjection, 4—24 months postinjection. Count: the number of patients in each group. Mean, median, and SD (standard deviation). Data: d1—KL OA grade 4 at the time of treatment, d2—KL OA grade 3 at the time of treatment.
