Background: There is a lack of patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) research on young adults and knee disorders. This scoping meta-review examined a young adult population and aimed to (1) provide an overview of knee-related PROMs research and (2) evaluate the measurement properties of the five most evaluated knee-related PROMs relevant for individual care and group-level analysis.

Methods: A systematic search of the PubMed and COSMIN databases was conducted on 18 September 2023 and updated on 25 November 2024 to identify systematic reviews of knee-related PROMs in young adults. Data relevant to individual care and group-level analysis of the five most evaluated PROMs were extracted based on the PROM-cycle and analysed guided by COSMIN recommendations.

Results: Fifteen systematic reviews were included, evaluating 80 knee-related PROMs. Ten of the 15 systematic reviews did not use a tool to synthesise multiple studies or a PROM evaluation tool. Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) had the strongest evidence to be an appropriate PROM for individual care and the Knee Outcome Survey Activities of Daily Living Scale (KOS-ADLS) for group-level analysis in a young adult population. However, none of the five PROMs demonstrated sufficient high-quality evidence across all identified measurement properties.

Conclusion: The scoping meta-review highlights that systemic reviews of measurement properties were reported inconsistently, making it challenging to detangle the extracted data. Therefore, advances in PROMs-specific methods and reporting recommendations should enhance the quality of PROM evidence, allowing readers to appraise relevant evidence and select the most appropriate PROMs for their intended purpose.

Patient-reported knee-related rating scores and scales are widely used in reporting the clinical outcomes of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) surgery. Understanding the psychometric properties of such measures is vital to recognizing the limitations that such measures may confer. The aim of this study was to review the available evidence as to the psychometric properties of patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) used in ACL surgery.

Background: Existing knee related patient reported outcome measurements (PROMs) have overwhelmingly been developed and validated in western chair-based societies, suggesting a potential for a western bias in PROMs evaluation of patients with knee conditions. We, therefore, endeavor to evaluate the responsiveness of the previously developed culturally relevant Japanese version of the knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome score (JKOOS+).

Methods: We enrolled 114 patients scheduled for total knee arthroplasty (TKA) across 8 knee clinics in Japan.

Background: Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is common amongst retired male professional footballers. There is limited understanding with respect to the interplay between imaging findings, clinical presentation and patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) in retired professional footballers with knee OA.

Objectives: This pilot study aimed to evaluate the extent of radiological and clinical knee OA in a cohort of retired male professional footballers, and to explore the relationship between these findings and knee-related PROMs.

Fulfilment of patients' mandatory expectations are crucial for satisfaction: a study amongst 352 patients after total knee arthroplasty (TKA).

Purpose: Patient satisfaction with the results of their total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is one of the primary goals of this elective procedure. Furthermore, the association between the fulfilment of patients' expectations and their satisfaction is well known. The aim of this study was to identify the key expectations of patients awaiting a TKA, evaluate their fulfilment, and compare the outcomes between very and not fully satisfied patients.
