Figure 2

Ensemble average joint moment trajectories for the transtibial (TTA, dashed line) and uninjured group (solid line) in the lumbar (top) and affected stance limb (middle). Significant between group differences (bottom) are identified in duration by bar width and mean difference magnitude by bar height. A positive difference indicates the TTA group had a more positive moment over the duration, relative to the reference uninjured group. Note there were no significant differences in lumbar moment trajectories (top). AF = Affected limb, UF=Unaffected limb. Moment signage (internal): +ankle = dorsiflexor, +knee = extensor, +hip sagittal = flexor, +hip frontal = adductor, +hip rotation = internal, +lumbar SAG = flexion, +lumbar FRO = ipsilateral, +lumbar TRA = ipsilateral.
