Abstract

Non-surgical interventions are recommended for osteoarthritis (OA). However, how interventions change pain and physical function is unclear. Therefore, the objectives of this scoping review were to: (1) identify what potential mediators of non-surgical interventions on pain and physical function have been evaluated and (2) summarise the findings according to intervention, joint and outcome.
