N2 - Medline, CINAHL, AMED and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Clinical Trials were searched up
to July 2010. Ten randomised, controlled clinical trials that compared land to aquatic exercise for adults with
arthritis were included. Study quality was assessed with the PEDro scale. Data relevant to the review question were
systematically extracted by two independent reviewers. Standardised mean differences between groups for key
outcomes were calculated. Meta-analyses were performed for function, mobility and indices that pooled health
outcomes across multiple domains.
