Effect of sagittal alignment changes on the normalized sagittal moments and cadence
| Alignment changes | Maximum Extension Moment (Nm/kg) | Cadence (steps/min) | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| TFP | KDP | TFP | KDP | ||
| Sagittal angle | 6° Extension | 0.62 (0.03) | 0.55 (0.02) | 100 (3) | 101 (3) |
| Aligned | 0.59 (0.02) | 0.47 (0.05) | 106 (3) | 111 (3) | |
| 6° Flexion | 0.50 (0.01) | 0.30 (0.02) | 99 (2) | 97 (2) | |
| Sagittal translation | 15 mm Posterior | 0.71 (0.02) | 0.55 (0.05) | 106 (1) | 102 (6) |
| Aligned | 0.59 (0.02) | 0.47 (0.05) | 106 (3) | 111 (3) | |
| 15 mm Anterior | 0.48 (0.02) | 0.31 (0.03) | 105 (1) | 99 (3) | |
Mean and standard deviations are provided as mean (SD).
