Histograms display statistically significant knee cartilages between patients without and those with genu recurvatum, in which one or more of the four indices had p < 0.05 (*). (A) Comparison of the healthy limbs in patients without genu recurvatum (top row) and those with genu recurvatum (bottom row). a, The femur cartilage at the anterior horn of the medial meniscus; b, the femur cartilage at the posterior horn of the medial meniscus; c, the femur cartilage at the posterior horn of the lateral meniscus; d, the tibia cartilage at the anterior horn of the lateral meniscus; e, the thickest load-bearing cartilage of the lateral tibial condyle. (B) Comparison of the hemiplegic limbs in patients without genu recurvatum (top row) and those with genu recurvatum (bottom row). a, The femur cartilage at the posterior horn of the medial meniscus; b, the femur cartilage at the anterior horn of the lateral meniscus; c, the femur cartilage at the posterior horn of the lateral meniscus; d, the tibia cartilage at the posterior horn of the medial meniscus; e, the tibia cartilage at the anterior horn of the lateral meniscus; f, the thickest load-bearing cartilage of the lateral tibial condyle.
