| Abstract |
The purpose of this retrospective comparative study was to evaluate and compare, radiographically and clinically, progression of osteoarthritis (OA) in the patellofemoral (PF) compartment after open-wedge high tibial osteotomy (OWHTO), and unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) over a minimum follow-up of 5 years. In this study, 42 knees in an OWHTO group were compared with 59 knees in a UKA group in terms of radiographic parameters, such as the grading system for OA progression in the PF compartment, and clinical parameters, such as the PF pain and function scores over a minimum follow-up of 5 years. There was no significant difference of OA progression in the PF compartment between the two groups on knee radiography. Compared with the preoperative grades, the UKA group showed significant progression of OA in the medial PF compartment at the final follow-up, whereas the medial PF compartment showed significant stepwise progression by only one grade when compared to the OWHTO group. The PF pain and function scores showed no statistical differences between the two groups at the final follow-up, regardless of OA progression. There was no significant difference between OWHTO and UKA in terms of progression of OA in the PF compartment or deterioration of PF function score over a minimum follow-up of 5 years. However, the medial PF compartment of the UKA group was minimal, and worsened or progressed by only one grade. III. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 30 May 2017.
All research outputs
#17,897,310
of 22,977,819 outputs
Outputs from Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy
#2,072
of 2,670 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#224,015
of 310,262 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy
#42
of 51 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,977,819 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 19th percentile – i.e., 19% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,670 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.1. This one is in the 20th percentile – i.e., 20% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 310,262 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 23rd percentile – i.e., 23% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 51 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 13th percentile – i.e., 13% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
