Group Comparisons of Interlimb Differences (Surgical Minus Contralateral Limb) for Medial to Total Loading^*

	Medial to Total Loading
Group Comparison*	Difference (95% CI)†	Cohen D Value	P Value
Partial vs. repair	12% (5% to 19%)	1.50	0.001‡
Partial vs. none	5% (−1% to 11%)	0.58	0.089
Repair vs. none	−7% (−13% to −2%)	0.88	0.011‡

^*Partial = partial medial meniscectomy, repair = medial meniscal repair, and none = no medial meniscal surgery.

^†CI = confidence interval. Positive values indicate that the group listed first walked with greater surgical versus contralateral limb medial to total loading compared with the second group; negative values indicate lesser relative medial to total loading.

^‡Significant (p < 0.05).
