Data are shown in degrees as mean (SD). Bold numbers indicate statistically significant differences compared with the intact state. For the x axes, positive values indicate pronation and negative values, supination. For the y axes, positive values indicate flexion and negative values, extension. For the z axes, positive values indicate ulnar deviation and negative values, radial deviation.
