Continuous outcomes were analyzed with pairwise meta-analysis using the inverse variance model with random effects applied. Binary outcomes were analyzed as pooled proportions in a single-arm fashion; after which, reconstruction of relative risks (RRs) with confidence intervals was performed using the Katz logarithmic method.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      A total of 876 patients were included: 469 received multilayered bioscaffolds; 238, gel-based scaffolds; and 169, single-layered scaffolds. The mean age of patients was 36.2 years (95% CI, 33.9 to 38.4), while the mean lesion size was 3.91 cm\n                      <jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\n                      (95% CI, 3.40 to 4.42). The weighted mean follow-up was 23.8 months (95% CI, 20.1 to 27.6). Multilayered bioscaffolds were most effective at improving visual analog scale scores ( P = .03; weighted mean difference [WMD], \u22124.44 [95% CI, \u22124.83 to \u22124.06]; P &lt; .001). There were significantly lower risks of incomplete defect filling for gel-based scaffolds when compared with multilayered scaffolds (RR, 0.78 [95% CI, 0.69 to 0.88]; P &lt; .001) and single-layered scaffolds (RR, 0.58 [95% CI, 0.41 to 0.81]; P = .001). Augmentation with cBMA further improved clinical scores across all scaffolds, with significant improvements in Tegner score ( P = .02), while decreasing incomplete defect filling rates as well. There was significantly greater improvement in visual analog scale scores ( P = .01) for single-layered scaffolds with cBMA augmentation (WMD, \u22124.88 [95% CI, \u22125.38 to \u22124.37]; P &lt; .001) as compared with single-layered scaffolds without cBMA augmentation (WMD, \u22124.08 [95% CI, \u22124.46 to \u22123.71]; P &lt; .001).
