مستخلص: The purpose of the present study was to examine whether Black patients presenting for arthroscopic partial meniscectomy (APM) have worse baseline knee pain, worse knee function, and greater articular cartilage damage than White patients.
Methods: A cohort of 3,086 patients (84% of whom were White; 13%, Black; and 3%, other race, with a median age of 53 years) who underwent APM were enrolled. Patients who underwent concomitant procedures and patients of undisclosed race or self-pay status were excluded. The associations of race with the preoperative Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) for pain (KOOS-pain) and the KOOS-Physical Function Short Form (KOOS-function) and the intraoperative assessment of cartilage damage (highest modified Outerbridge grading) were determined by multivariate modeling with adjustment for age, sex, insurance status, years of education, smoking status, body mass index (BMI), meniscal tear location, and Veterans RAND 12-Item Health Survey Mental Component Summary (VR-12 MCS) score.
Results: The 3 factors most strongly associated with worse KOOS-pain and KOOS-function were a lower VR-12 MCS score, increased BMI, and increased age. The 3 factors most strongly associated with higher-grade articular cartilage damage were increased age, increased BMI, and meniscal tear location. All of these factors had an unequal distribution between Black and White patients. After adjusting for confounding variables, the KOOS-pain score for Black patients was a mean of 2.6 points lower than that for White patients regardless of insurance status; the KOOS-function score for Black patients with commercial insurance was a mean of 2.4 points lower than that for White patients with commercial insurance but was not lower than that for Black patients on Medicare. Compared with commercially insured White patients, commercially insured Black patients had 1.4-fold greater odds of having higher-grade articular damage, and no difference in risk was detected among Medicare-insured Black patients.
Conclusions: There are clinically important differences in the distribution of risk factors between Black and White patients presenting for APM regarding several factors associated with worse knee pain, knee function, and greater articular cartilage damage. When controlling for these confounding factors, a significant, but not clinically relevant, racial disparity remained with respect to knee pain, knee function, and cartilage damage. Two of the 3 major risk factors for all 3 included age and BMI. The third factor for knee pain and function was mental health, and the location of a meniscal tear was the third factor for articular cartilage damage.
