“…Four studies were excluded from the meta-analysis due to incomplete data presented. [24][25][26][27] The primary subject diagnoses included osteoarthritis, inflammatory arthritis, hematologic disease, and traumatic knee pain. In the five studies comparing physical exam to MRI, all subjects were adults and three studies included only patients with osteoarthritis (Table 1).…”

“…One study was excluded from meta-analysis due to incomplete published data. 24 These studies included both adult and pediatric patients and diagnoses of hemophilia, beta thalassemia, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and ligament or meniscal injury. Five of these studies had only low or low and unclear risk of bias in QUADAS2 domains, while four studies had at least one domain with high risk of bias (Figure 4).…”

Knee effusion can be detected by physical examination, ultrasound and MRI, but the utility of each test is unclear. This study aimed to analyze the diagnostic value of physical examination and ultrasound for knee effusion. A systematic literature search of electronic databases was completed. Bivariate mixed-effects regression modelling was used to estimate sensitivity, specificity and diagnostic odds ratio of physical examination and ultrasound diagnosis of knee effusion. Sensitivity of ultrasound diagnosis of knee effusion was higher than the bulge sign and patellar tap, leading to improved positive and negative predictive values.
