2 Fig. 1 Flow diagram of participants over OAI follow up visits. Mx = arthroscopic meniscectomy; KR = knee replacement surgery. Osteoarthritis and Cartilage  , 23-29DOI: ( /j.joca ) Copyright © 2016 Osteoarthritis Research Society International Terms and Conditions

3 Fig. 2 Hazard ratios [95% CI] with knee replacement surgery as the dependent variable demonstrating the increased risk for knee replacement surgery for participants who underwent arthroscopic meniscectomy compared to those participants who did not undergo arthroscopic meniscectomy. Results are provided for the primary analysis and sensitivity analyses.
