ObjectiveTo evaluate the quality of clinical practice guidelines and expert consensus statements on knee osteoarthritis （KOA） based on the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research & Evaluation Ⅱ （AGREE Ⅱ）， thus providing a new perspective for clinical selection as well as guideline development and updating. MethodsA systematic search was conducted for KOA-related guidelines and consensus statements published from November 1， 2019 to December 31， 2025. The databases and platforms searched included CNKI， VIP， Wanfang Data， PubMed， Web of Science， the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence （NICE）， SinoMed， Yimaitong， and relevant official websites. Two researchers independently screened the literature， and four researchers used AGREE Ⅱ to score the included documents and completed the quality appraisal after reaching a unified understanding. Subgroup analyses were further performed according to developing organization， document type， medical approach， funding status， and region of development， and longitudinal comparisons were conducted by year of publication. ResultsA total of 23 guidelines and consensus statements were included. The standardized scores of the six AGREE Ⅱ domains， from the highest to the lowest， were clarity of presentation ［（70.36±8.13）%］， scope and purpose ［（67.46 ± 11.44）%］， editorial independence ［（64.50±20.01）%］， rigor of development ［（62.24±15.26）%］， stakeholder involvement ［（55.73±10.29）%］， and applicability ［（53.89±13.17）%］. In terms of overall recommendation， 6 documents were rated as grade A and 17 as grade B. Stratified analyses showed that professional organizations scored higher than comprehensive organizations. The overall scores of traditional Chinese medicine/integrative medicine and Western medicine guidelines （or consensus statements） were similar. Guidelines scored higher than consensus statements. The overall scores were similar between documents with reported funding and those without reported funding. International guidelines scored higher than domestic guidelines. Longitudinal comparisons showed that the largest number of documents was published in 2021. The overall scores were higher in 2021—2022， and some domain scores declined in 2023—2024. Overall， the quality of recent guidelines and consensus statements for KOA showed slight fluctuations， without a clear linear trend. ConclusionThe included guidelines and consensus statements for KOA can generally serve as references for clinical practice. However， the quality across domains remains uneven， and stakeholder involvement and applicability are still weak domains. Future guideline development and updating should further improve methodological standardization and transparency in reporting.

Objective To evaluate the application values of two kinds of single-platform flow cytometric methods,the Volumetric method based on flow sensor and the Trucount method based on Trucount beads,in the counts of T-lymphocyte subsets in peripheral blood of patients after transplantation.Methods The absolute number and percentage of CD4 +,CD8 +,and CD3 + T cells in peripheral blood samples from 107 patients after liver or renal transplantation were determined by the Trucount method and the Volumetric method,respectively,and their results were compared using paired t-test and linear regression analysis.Five samples with low CD3 + counts were selected and the precisions of the absolute number of CD4 +,CD8 + and CD3 + T ceils detected by the Volumetric method were evaluated.Results There was no significant difference in the levels of CD4+,CD4+/CD3+,CD8+,CD8+/CD3+,and CD4+/CD8 + in peripheral blood between the Trucount method and the Volumetric method (P ＞ 0.05),and the linear regression coefficients between them were from 0.9 to 1.1.When the concentration of CD3 + was equal or more than 40/μL,the coefficients of variation (CVs) were below 5.5％ for the Volumetric method.When the concentration of CD3 + was 20/μL,the CVs of CD3 +,CD4 +,and CD8 + were 5.19％,10.28％ and 6.48％,respectively.Conclusion The single-platform method based on flow sensor is accurate and reproducible for counting T-lymphocyte subsets in peripheral blood,which may be used to monitor the immune state of the patients after liver or renal transplantation.
