Surgery versus physical therapy for a meniscal tear and osteoarthritis. BACKGROUND: Whether arthroscopic partial meniscectomy for symptomatic patients with a meniscal tear and knee osteoarthritis results in better functional outcomes than nonoperative therapy is uncertain. METHODS: We conducted a multicenter, randomized, controlled trial involving symptomatic patients 45 years of age or older with a meniscal tear and evidence of mild-to-moderate osteoarthritis on imaging. We randomly assigned (...) 351 patients to surgery and postoperative physical therapy or to a standardized physical-therapy regimen (with the option to cross over to surgery at the discretion of the patient and surgeon). The patients were evaluated at 6 and 12 months. The primary outcome was the difference between the groups with respect to the change in the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) physical-function score (ranging from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating more severe

CRD summary The authors cautiously concluded that specific physical therapy interventions resulted in beneficial outcomes for psychiatric symptoms, psychological distress, state anxiety, health-related quality of life and aerobic and muscular fitness. This was a well-conducted review and the authors' conclusions reflect some limitations of the evidence. However, the added value of physical therapy in people with schizophrenia remains unclear.

The risk of bias in studies, and variation in populations and interventions, downgraded the strength of most evidence to low or moderate. The authors' conclusions were suitably cautious in reflecting the limited evidence available, and are likely to be reliable.
