Purpose: To compare the patient-reported outcomes and radiologic outcomes of the patients with medial and lateral cystic osteochondral lesions of the talus (OLTs) following bone marrow stimulation (BMS).

Methods: Patients with cystic OLTs who underwent BMS between January 2016 and February 2021 were retrospectively analyzed, and the minimum follow-up time was more than 24 months. Patients were paired in a 1:1 ratio (medial cystic OLT [MC-OLT]/lateral cystic OLT [LC-OLT]) based on the OLT area within 30 mm, follow-up within 1 year, age within 5 years, and ligament surgery (yes/no).

Article Synopsis
  • Missing diagnoses in dementia studies can lead to underestimations of prevalence, particularly when the missingness is linked to whether a respondent has dementia.
  • The study introduced a technique called propensity score stratification (PSS) to calculate more accurate prevalence estimates by accounting for non-responder bias.
  • Results showed that PSS yielded consistent estimates of dementia prevalence (around 12.2%) compared to a lower estimate (9.95%) obtained without addressing missing data, highlighting the importance of considering such factors in research.
