Fig. 2 — Calculation of direct and indirect effects of change in body weight on change in pain intensity. Values are standardised β coefficients: (a) direct effect of change in body weight on foot pain intensity, (b) indirect effect of change in body weight, mediated by change in midfoot pressure. (*) Direct effect, (**) Indirect effect. The total effect of change in body weight on foot pain intensity is therefore the sum of the direct and indirect effects, i.e. total impact is 0.078 + 0.107 = 0.185
