Developing a Personalized Treatment Algorithm for Knee Osteoarthritis: A Meta-Analysis

This meta-analysis aims to investigate the feasibility of developing a personalized treatment algorithm to enhance the long-term effectiveness of treatment for patients with knee osteoarthritis. This project explores various treatment modalities, including surgical interventions and physical therapy, and analyzes the use of patient-reported outcomes to assess treatment efficacy.

The following three papers provide valuable insights into different treatment options, surgical interventions, and the use of patient-reported outcome measures in knee osteoarthritis research:

1. 'Surgery versus physical therapy for a meniscal tear and osteoarthritis' by Katz et al. (2013)
2. 'A randomized, controlled trial of total knee replacement' by Skou et al. (2015)
3. 'A hierarchy of patient-reported outcomes for meta-analysis of knee osteoarthritis trials: empirical evidence from a survey of high impact journals' by Juhl et al. (2012)

These titles serve as a starting point for locating and referencing the full articles in your meta-analysis paper.
