Figure 3.
Least-square mean values of bone mineral density (BMD) at 5% (F5), 15% (F15), and 50% (F50) of femur length and 5% (T5), 15% (T15), and 50% (T50) of tibia length from preinjury (PRE) to 24-months post-anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) within the surgical (black) and non-surgical limb (grey). Error bars depict the 95% confidence interval of the least-square mean. The axis break between preinjury and 6-months demonstrates that the time interval between preinjury and 6-months varies between participants. * Significant within-limb difference from preinjury p < 0.002.
