Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

The Journal of Cartilage and Joint Preservation focuses on treatments and outcomes related to cartilage defects and joint preservation. Articles examine surgical techniques such as autologous periosteal-induced chondrogenesis, osteochondral allograft transplantation, and muscle tendon transfers. The journal also investigates predictive modeling for cartilage procedure failure, the impact of meniscal tears on cartilage degeneration, and the role of synovium in cartilage repair. Additionally, it addresses outcomes of knee arthroplasty following prior osteotomies and the evolution of pain in knee osteoarthritis.
