James,
I forwarded your note to BIOX.
As best I can recall, I cannot remember anything in the Canadian articles bringing this issue up. But, then again, that was not their focus.
So I don't know how to interpret this. I do recall that the lady on TV (KC) mentioned that the injection hurt.
Gotta think, though, its the NEEDLE and not what's in the needle. So, unless HA is injected DIFFERENTLY than SYNVISC its a wash.
Lastly, would you believe <g> I actually got a response from BIOX. It follows:

Dear Mr. McCarthy,
With reference to your inquiry of Dec, 2, we would like to inform you that the AHP sales force has knowledge of the Synvisc retrospective study from Canada.
Thank you for you inquiry.
Biomatrix Inc.
Good Holidays James.
Regards,
