Table 1.
Patient Demographics and Average Limb Alignment Values According to Full-Length Weight-Bearing and Anteroposterior Weight-Bearing Knee Radiographs
Demographic | Mean ± SD |
---|---|
Age, years | 45 ± 17 |
Body mass index, kg/m2 | 26.5 ± 5.1 |
Gender | 62M, 58F |
Radiograph technique | |
Full-length weight-bearing, mechanical axis | 178.2 ± 3.8 |
AP angle 1 | 180.0 ± 3.6 |
AP angle 2 | 182.6 ± 4.0 |
NOTE. N = 120. Angles were recorded in degrees with respect to neutral alignment at 180°. AP angle 1 and AP angle 2 were the two tibiofemoral angle measurement techniques used on standard AP radiographs.
AP, anteroposterior; F, females; M, males.
