Table I.

Clinical characteristics. Where AA = anatomic axis, BMI = body mass index, IQR = interquartile range, KJC = knee joint centre, K&L = Kellgren & Lawrence grade, n = number, RKOA = radiographic knee osteoarthritis, SD = standard deviation, SRKOA = symptomatic radiographic knee osteoarthritis, 1P = one-point, 2P = two-point

Statistically significant P value is represented in bold.

P values compare age and BMI using Kruskal Wallis test; knee injury, knee pain, RKOA and SRKOA using chi-square test.
