Figs. 3-A and 3-B Patients with an anterior cruciate ligament deficiency had thinning of tibial cartilage that was associated with specific kinematic changes²⁶. The patients who had a posterior tibial shift in the anterior cruciate ligament-deficient knee relative to the intact knee had significantly greater tibial cartilage thinning in anterior regions than in posterior regions (p < 0.01), and the subjects with anterior tibial shift had more thinning in posterior regions than in anterior regions. The error bars in Figure 3-B represent one standard deviation.
