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: At the 2-year follow-up, the routine use of the 5- Strand hamstring tendon autograft was not superior to that of the quadrupled or 4-strand graft in primary ACL reconstruction.

Baseline Cartilage Thickness and Meniscus Extrusion Predict Longitudinal Cartilage Loss by Quantitative Magnetic Resonance Imaging: Data From the Osteoarthritis Initiative.
TL;DR: Baseline cartilage thickness and meniscus extrusion are important and independent predictors for acceleratedcartilage loss, however, the degree of cartilage loss did not correlate with midterm change in clinical outcome scores.

TL;DR: Osteoarthritis Initiative data were used to determine the association between knee radiographic osteoarth arthritis worsening and future knee pain and function and to estimate prognostic estimates for knee osteOarthritis worsening over the full disease spectrum.

TL;DR: A machine learning (ML) algorithm was utilized to determine whether the number of questions and the resultant burden to complete the survey can be lowered in a subset (activities of daily living; ADL) of KOOS, yet still provide identical data.

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.
