| الوصف: | AIM To test whether an observational study employing propensity score matching could accurately estimate the causal treatment effects of rectus femoris transfer (RFT) as part of single-event multilevel surgery (SEMLS) in ambulatory children with cerebral palsy. METHOD We used a large clinical database to derive a propensity score for treatment assignment (SEMLS±RFT) and used this score to generate a matched patient cohort. We compared the causal treatment effects estimated from this matched cohort with a previously published randomized controlled trial (RCT). RESULTS The treated arms of the observational study and RCT were well matched. There were 129 limbs (81 males) with a mean age of 10 years 7 months (4y 7mo) in the treated arm of the observational study, and 129 limbs (68 males) with a mean age of 10 years 2 months (3y 9mo) in the control arm of the observational study. Differences between the observational study and RCT cohorts were clinically meaningless for knee flexion kinematics (1-4°), timing of knee angle extrema ( |
