*

The outcome variable was defined as the change from the baseline preoperative EQ-5D index score to the 2-year postoperative EQ-5D index score. BMI = body mass index, CCI = Charlson Comorbidity Index, and ASA = American Society of Anesthesiologists.

R2 = 0.446 for primary total knee arthroplasty, 0.467 for unicompartmental knee arthroplasty, and 0.454 for aseptic revision total knee arthroplasty.

The intercept is the expected value when all of the values in the regression model are set to 0.
