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: In this article, a single intra-articular injection of IFP-MSCs appeared to be a safe therapy for treating knee osteoarthritis (OA) and may improve disease symptoms.

Knee kinematics during stair descent 20 years following anterior cruciate ligament rupture with and without reconstruction.
TL;DR: It is suggested that future studies investigating short and long-term kinematic outcomes of ACL injury could evaluate stair descent with particular emphasis on weight acceptance of stance, and potential associations to perceived knee function.

TL;DR: HRQoL worsening was associated with several risk factors; surgical and pharmacological interventions were more common in the poorer HRZoL trajectory groups indicating that HRQeL does reflect the need for OA treatment.

TL;DR: Intraoperative femorotibial rotational kinematics and its influence on the clinical outcomes were different between bi-cruciate stabilized (BCS) TKA and PS TKA, and BCS TKA showed more normal-like kinematic and better clinical results thanPS TKA.

Does concomitant meniscectomy affect medium-term outcome of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction? A preliminary report
TL;DR: Patients undergoing ACLR with partial meniscectomy had a similar medium-term outcome compared to individuals with ACL tear alone, and most subjects improved in the KOOS subscales Sports and Recreation and QoL.

TL;DR: A new activity grading scale, where work and sport activities were graded numerically, was constructed as complement to the functional score, showing that the symptom-related score gave a more differentiated picture of the disability.
