Table 4 MME Measurement according to chronicity

From: Varus stress MRI in diagnosis of medial meniscal posterior root tear

	Chronicity			P value^a
	Acute	Sub-acute	Chronic
	Mean ± SD	Mean ± SD	Mean ± SD
Pre-Varus	2.89 ± 0.47	3.89 ± 0.63	4.72 ± 1.71	0.001*
Post-Varus	4.89 ± 0.75	6.07 ± 1.16	7.02 ± 1.72	0.001*
P value^b	0.000*	0.000*	0.000*

^aComparison of MME measurements among the three types or stages of chronicity was done by using analysis of variance test (ANOVA test)
^bComparison between pre-varus and post-varus stress MME measurements in each separated stage was done by using (paired samples T test)
