Values are the asymmetry indices (mean ± SD) expressed in percentage points; n = 19. F represents the omnibus test of slope from the linear mixed-effects model (denominator degrees of freedom = 72), and q represents the Benjamini–Hochberg false-discovery-rate-adjusted p value across the seven primary outcomes. Significant pairwise comparisons between slopes (mean difference, 95% confidence interval, paired standardized effect size dz, and Holm-adjusted p value) are reported in the text. SD, standard deviation; vGRF, vertical ground reaction force; PF, plantarflexion; ext, extension; PFJ, patellofemoral joint.
