Abstract
Background: Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a widespread chronic condition. Depression frequently occurs among patients with KOA. The objective of this meta-analysis was to identify risk factors associated with comorbid depression in patients with KOA. Materials and Methods: A comprehensive search of the PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science databases was conducted for studies related to comorbid depression in patients with KOA. We conducted statistical analyses to obtain relevant results, followed by heterogeneity tests and assessment for publication bias. Results: The prevalence of comorbid depression among patients with KOA was 34% (95% CI, 28%–41%). Notable risk factors linked to comorbid depression in patients with KOA included female sex (relative risk [RR], 1.17; 95% CI, 1.11–1.23), obesity (mean difference [MD], 1.30; 95% CI, 0.88–1.71), use of analgesics (RR, 1.50; 95% CI, 1.38–1.63), comorbidities (MD, 0.20; 95% CI, 0.10–0.31), unmarried or widowed status (RR, 1.72; 95% CI, 1.56–1.91), bilateral knee pain (RR, 1.38; 95% CI, 1.11–1.71), high total Western Ontario and Mc-Master Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC) score (MD, 14.92; 95% CI, 10.02–19.82), high WOMAC pain score (MD, 5.76; 95% CI, 2.86–8.67), low gait velocity (MD, −0.12; 95% CI, −0.16 to −0.09), and extended duration in the Timed Up and Go Test (MD, 1.56; 95% CI, 0.87–2.25). Conclusion: Based on the current evidence, female sex, obesity, use of analgesics, comorbidities, unmarried or widowed status, bilateral knee pain, high total WOMAC score, high WOMAC pain score, low gait velocity, and prolonged time on the Timed Up and Go Test were identified as risk factors for depression in patients with KOA. Focus should be given to these aspects when preventing depression among these patients. [ Orthopedics . 2024;47(5):e225–e232.]

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
