Correlation between MRI and clinical findings following knee cartilage repair .
This study has been identified as potentially high impact.
OE's AI-driven High Impact metric estimates the influence a paper is likely to have by integrating signals from both the journal in which it is published and the scientific content of the article itself.
Developed using state-of-the-art natural language processing, the OE High Impact model more accurately predicts a study's future citation performance than journal impact factor alone.
This enables earlier recognition of clinically meaningful research and helps readers focus on articles most likely to shape future practice.
Correlation Between Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Clinical Outcomes After Cartilage Repair Surgery in the Knee: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
Am J Sports Med. 2013 Jun;41(6):1426-34. doi: 10.1177/0363546513485931. Epub 2013 Apr 30The systematic review included 26 studies (randomized controlled trials, cohort studies, and case series), 15 of which were used for meta-analysis, the purpose of which to determine the correlation between MRI findings and clinical outcome following cartilage repair surgery. The procedures included were autologous chondrocyte implantation, osteochondral autograft transfer system, and microfracture. The findings suggested that correlation does exist between radiographic and clinical outcome, although it appears that the strength of the correlation for a particular MRI classification appears to vary depending on the procedure.
