TABLE 4.

Signal/noise quotient values of the tibial and femoral ends in the platelet‐rich plasma group

Postoperative time	Tibial end	Femoral end	P‐value *
3 months	7.33 ± 4.28	11.08 ± 5.71	0.00
6 months	9.13 ± 5.79	16.31 ± 7.52	0.00
12 months	8.11 ± 4.31	14.35 ± 8.86	0.00
P‐value †	0.03	0.00

^* P < 0.05 indicates a statistically significant difference in signal/noise quotient values between the tibial and femoral ends.

^† P < 0.05 indicates a statistically significant difference in signal/noise quotient values at 6 months after surgery compared with the corresponding at 3 and 12 months after surgery.
