TLDR
The KOOS is a valid, reliable and responsive self-administered instrument that can be used for short-term and long-term follow-up of several types of knee injury including osteoarthritis.Abstract:
The Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) was developed as an extension of the WOMAC Osteoarthritis Index with the purpose of evaluating short-term and long-term symptoms and function in subjects with knee injury and osteoarthritis. The KOOS holds five separately scored subscales: Pain, other Symptoms, Function in daily living (ADL), Function in Sport and Recreation (Sport/Rec), and knee-related Quality of Life (QOL). The KOOS has been validated for several orthopaedic interventions such as anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, meniscectomy and total knee replacement. In addition the instrument has been used to evaluate physical therapy, nutritional supplementation and glucosamine supplementation. The effect size is generally largest for the subscale QOL followed by the subscale Pain. The KOOS is a valid, reliable and responsive self-administered instrument that can be used for short-term and long-term follow-up of several types of knee injury including osteoarthritis. The measure is relatively new and further use of the instrument will add knowledge and suggest areas that need to be further explored and improved.read more

TL;DR: A randomized open-label trial to investigate the efficacy of a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (diclofenac) compared with acetaminophen in new consulters with knee osteoarthritis in general practice to lead to a better understanding of which medication should be used in the treatment of primary care patients with mild knee osteaarthritis.

TL;DR: Non-surgical and surgical interventions may be effective in improving knee-related quality of life in individuals with patellofemoral osteoarthritis, but the intervention results are based on limited studies, and further research is needed to determine optimal strategies.

Differences in EMG–moment relationships between ACL-injured and uninjured adults during a weight-bearing multidirectional force control task
Teresa E. Flaxman,Tine Alkjær,Kenneth B. Smale,Erik B. Simonsen,Michael R. Krogsgaard,Daniel L. Benoit +5 more
TL;DR: Differences in EMG–moment relationships during static conditions suggest neuromuscular contributions to sagittal plane stability increases after ACL injury, while knee stability during knee abduction and external rotation is reduced.
