  1. Values are number and % or mean ± SD
  2. OKS is Oxford knee score, each question ranges (0–4), (0) means severe, (4) means very mild
  3. L level of the domain of EQ-5D-5L, each domain ranges (1–5), (1) means no problems, (5) means unable to / extreme problems
  4. VAS is a visual analogue scale, it ranges (0–100), (0) means the worst health you can imagine, (100) means the best health you can imagine
  5. Egypt utility ranges from − 0.964 for the worst health state (55555) to 1 for full health (11111)
  6. % are estimated from columns
