Medial pivot (MP) designs are growing in popularity. They provide increased sagittal plane stability and theoretically replicate some aspects of native joint kinematics, which may improve total knee arthroplasty outcomes.
A systematic review was performed of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that compared MP designs with cruciate-retaining, posterior-stabilized (PS), ultracongruent, or mobile-bearings in primary total knee arthroplasty, according to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. The primary outcome measures were all clinical function scores, patient-reported outcome measures, and range of motion. The secondary outcome was complications. Two authors independently selected studies, performed data extraction, and risk-of-bias assessment. Studies at high risk of bias were excluded from meta-analysis. Treatment effects were assessed using random-effects meta-analysis and quantified using pooled mean differences or incidence rate differences as appropriate.
Eight RCTs met inclusion criteria. Five compared MP with PS, two with ultracongruent, and one with cruciate-retaining and mobile-bearing. In total, 350 knees were randomized to MP and 375 to conventional bearings. One RCT was excluded from meta-analysis because of high risk of bias. Meta-analysis comparing MP with PS only was possible and found no differences at any time points for any outcome measure, including 2-year follow-up for Oxford Knee Score (MD = 0.35 favoring PS; 95% CI -0.49 to 1.20) and range of motion (MD = 1.58 favoring MP; 95% CI -0.76 to 11.92, P = 0.30) and 12 months for Western Ontario Arthritis Index (MD = 4.42 favoring MP; 95% CI -12.04 to 3.20, P = 0.09).
There is no difference in clinical outcomes, with contemporary measurement tools, at any time points, between MP and PS. There are insufficient RCTs comparing MP with other bearings.
内侧枢轴(MP)设计越来越受欢迎。它们提供了增加矢状面稳定性,并在理论上复制了一些天然关节运动学的方面,这可能会改善全膝关节置换术的结果。
根据系统评价和荟萃分析的首选报告项目指南,对比较 MP 设计与保留交叉韧带、后稳定(PS)、超共面或活动衬垫的随机对照试验(RCT)进行了系统评价。主要结局测量指标是所有临床功能评分、患者报告的结局测量指标和活动范围。次要结局是并发症。两位作者独立选择研究、进行数据提取和风险偏倚评估。高风险偏倚的研究被排除在荟萃分析之外。使用随机效应荟萃分析评估治疗效果,并根据需要使用汇总平均差异或发病率差异来量化。
八项 RCT 符合纳入标准。五项比较 MP 与 PS,两项比较超共面,一项比较保留交叉韧带和活动衬垫。共有 350 个膝关节随机分配到 MP 组,375 个膝关节分配到常规轴承组。一项 RCT 因高风险偏倚而被排除在荟萃分析之外。仅比较 MP 与 PS 的荟萃分析是可能的,并且在任何时间点都没有发现任何结局测量指标的差异,包括牛津膝关节评分的 2 年随访(MD=0.35,PS 组更优;95%CI-0.49 至 1.20)和活动范围(MD=1.58,MP 组更优;95%CI-0.76 至 11.92,P=0.30)和 Western Ontario 关节炎指数 12 个月(MD=4.42,MP 组更优;95%CI-12.04 至 3.20,P=0.09)。
在任何时间点,使用现代测量工具,MP 和 PS 在临床结局方面都没有差异。比较 MP 与其他轴承的 RCT 还不够。
