Fig. 6 — Scatter plot illustrating the relationship between (a) the percentage change in von Mises stress (VMS) and post-operative bone mineral density (BMD), and (b) the percentage change in strain energy density (SED) and post-operative BMD. Twenty-one points plotted in each scatter plot indicate the mean relative percentage change in the finite element analysis results (VMS or SED) and BMD of each volume of interest (1 to 7) in the three groups. A statistically significant correlation was observed between both parameters and the change in BMD (p < 0.01).
