  1. The location of the weight-bearing line (WBL) on the tibial plateau according to its medial to lateral total tibial width ratio is shown for the pre- and postoperative state. P-values are displayed for comparison of the mean WBL from the pre- to postoperative visit within a group (last row) as well as for comparison of the WBL between both groups (last column). Statistically significant values are marked by asterisks
