Results from a multiple regression model assessing the effect of whole foot, proximal phalanx, and first metatarsal length on the fusion sagittal angle
Parameter | Correlation coefficient β (95% CI) | p value |
Intercept | 35 (26 to 45) | < 0.001 |
Whole foota | -0.05 (-0.12 to 0.02) | 0.16 |
Proximal phalanxa | -0.13 (-0.46 to 0.20) | 0.44 |
First metatarsala | 0.13 (-0.10 to 0.35) | 0.27 |
Lengths measured on preoperative AP and lateral weightbearing radiographs.
