          Abstract

          Background

          This study was conducted with the aim to compare the effect of posterior condyle offset (PCO) changes on knee joint function of patients following total knee replacement (TKR).

          Methods

          Electronic and manual searches were performed in the PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases from inception to September 2019. Network meta-analysis combined direct and indirect evidence to assess the weighted mean difference (WMD) and surface under the cumulative ranking curves (SUCRA) of different PCO changes (PCO ≤ − 2 mm, − 2 mm < PCO < 0 mm, 0 mm ≤ PCO < 2 mm and PCO ≥ 2 mm) on knee joint function after TKR. Then 103 OA patients undergoing unilateral TKR were included and the effect of PCO on the postoperative knee function was examined.

          Results

          Totally, 5 cohort studies meeting the inclusion criteria were enrolled in this analysis. The results of meta-analysis showed that patients with 0 mm ≤ PCO < 2 mm after TKR had a better recovery of joint function (flexion contracture: 28.67%; KS functional score: 78.67%; KS knee score: 75.00%) than the remaining three groups. However, the knee flexion (77.00%) of patients with PCO ≤ − 2 mm after TKR was superior to the other three groups. Retrospective study also revealed a significant correlation between PCO changes and the flexion contracture, further flexion and KS functional score of patients after TKR, in which each functional knee score of patients with 0 mm ≤ PCO < 2 mm was better than the others.

          Conclusion

          These findings suggest a close correlation between PCO magnitude and knee joint function after TKR and that 0 mm ≤ PCO < 2 mm is superior to other changes for joint function after TKR.

          Preferred reporting items for systematic review and meta-analysis protocols (PRISMA-P) 2015 statement

          Systematic reviews should build on a protocol that describes the rationale, hypothesis, and planned methods of the review; few reviews report whether a protocol exists. Detailed, well-described protocols can facilitate the understanding and appraisal of the review methods, as well as the detection of modifications to methods and selective reporting in completed reviews. We describe the development of a reporting guideline, the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses for Protocols 2015 (PRISMA-P 2015). PRISMA-P consists of a 17-item checklist intended to facilitate the preparation and reporting of a robust protocol for the systematic review. Funders and those commissioning reviews might consider mandating the use of the checklist to facilitate the submission of relevant protocol information in funding applications. Similarly, peer reviewers and editors can use the guidance to gauge the completeness and transparency of a systematic review protocol submitted for publication in a journal or other medium.

            Newcastle-Ottawa Scale: comparing reviewers’ to authors’ assessments

            Background Lack of appropriate reporting of methodological details has previously been shown to distort risk of bias assessments in randomized controlled trials. The same might be true for observational studies. The goal of this study was to compare the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) assessment for risk of bias between reviewers and authors of cohort studies included in a published systematic review on risk factors for severe outcomes in patients infected with influenza. Methods Cohort studies included in the systematic review and published between 2008–2011 were included. The corresponding or first authors completed a survey covering all NOS items. Results were compared with the NOS assessment applied by reviewers of the systematic review. Inter-rater reliability was calculated using kappa (K) statistics. Results Authors of 65/182 (36%) studies completed the survey. The overall NOS score was significantly higher (p < 0.001) in the reviewers’ assessment (median = 6; interquartile range [IQR] 6–6) compared with those by authors (median = 5, IQR 4–6). Inter-rater reliability by item ranged from slight (K = 0.15, 95% confidence interval [CI] = −0.19, 0.48) to poor (K = −0.06, 95% CI = −0.22, 0.10). Reliability for the overall score was poor (K = −0.004, 95% CI = −0.11, 0.11). Conclusions Differences in assessment and low agreement between reviewers and authors suggest the need to contact authors for information not published in studies when applying the NOS in systematic reviews.

              Epidemiology of osteoarthritis.

              Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis in the United States and is a leading cause of disability. It is typically defined in epidemiologic studies by radiographic findings and consideration of symptoms. Its incidence and prevalence are rising, likely related to the aging of the population and increasing obesity. Risk factors for OA include numerous person-level factors, such as age, sex, obesity, and genetics, as well as joint-specific factors that are likely reflective of abnormal loading of the joints. In studying OA, several methodologic challenges exist that can hamper our ability to identify pertinent relationships. Copyright © 2013 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
