Today's knee edition covers six open-access studies spanning surgical decision-making, outcome prediction, and technology integration in knee surgery. We examine mobile-bearing unicompartmental knee arthroplasty outcomes, machine learning models for predicting ACL reconstruction instability, evidence-based algorithms for choosing between unicompartmental arthroplasty and high tibial osteotomy, comprehensive patellar instability management strategies, lateral compartment arthroplasty comparisons, and kinematic assessment technology for personalized total knee arthroplasty care.
