Abstract

We have designed a scoring scale for knee ligament surgery follow-up emphasizing evaluation of symp toms of instability. Instability is defined as ''giving way" during activity. Our scoring scale was compared to a slightly modified Larson scale in patients with anteromedial and/or anterolateral instability, poster olateral and straight posterior instability, chondroma lacia patellae, and meniscus lesion. The two scales gave basically the same results in patients with menis cus rupture. In patients with unstable knees, the new scale gave a significantly lower total score. Thus, the new scale evaluates functional impairment due to clin ical instability better than the modified Larson scale. The total score, with the new scoring scale, corre sponded to the patients' own opinion of function and to the presence or absence of signs of instability.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
