Round 1
Reviewer 1 Report
This is an interesting systematic review and meta-analysis. The authors aimed to investigate the diagnosis of central sensitization in patients who underwent total knee arthroplasty for knee osteoarthritis and its effect on clinical outcomes.
The study is well designed according to PRISMA guidelines, and the methods and results are well presented. The discussion is interesting and well written.
The authors changed the manuscript according to the reviewers' suggestions. I think that this review can be accepted in the present form.

Reviewer 3 Report
I liked reading the manuscript and it is an important field to make a review.
However, is this a revision process?
Otherwise, can the authors provide a clean manuscript for the review process, it would make reading easier and looks more professional.

▶Thank you for your comments. This manuscript was provided in revision format, but almost all contents have been changed. The previous manuscript was written in narrative review format. But, by the requests of reviewers, it was rewritten in systematic review format according to the PRISMA guideline. Thanks again for your advice.
