Each RCT was assessed for inclusion of the following background and sociodemographic variables: age, sex, body mass index (BMI), race\/ethnicity, education level, insurance, smoking\/tobacco use, socioeconomic status, marital status, alcohol use, proficiency in country's official language, employment status, and residence status.

Employment status was reported in 2 studies (18.2%), and race\/ethnicity and smoking\/tobacco use were each included in one study (9.1%). Socioeconomic status, residency status, alcohol use, marital status, and insurance were not reported in any included RCT. There was no significant difference in the reporting of at least 1 sociodemographic variable (excluding age, sex, and BMI) in later studies (2015\u20102019) versus earlier studies (2020\u20102024,\n                      <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                      = .061).\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Our analysis of high\u2010impact meniscectomy RCTs revealed deficient reporting of sociodemographic variables over the last decade.
