aScores are expressed as mean, with SD when available. IKDC, International Knee Documentation Committee; KOOS, Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score; MOCART, magnetic resonance observation of cartilage repair tissue.
bSiebold et al34 used a maximum MOCART score of 85 rather than 100; to compare their results with those of the other studies, we used the percentage instead of the absolute value.
