Correlation in the Coronal Angle between Knee and Hindfoot Was Observed in Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis Unless Talocrural Joint Was Destroyed

Table 3

JSSF pain scores categorized by the condition of the hindfoot and THFA alignment.

	THFA alignment
	Valgus	Neutral	Varus
All patients	33.7 ± 8.1	34.6 ± 7.9	35.4 ± 8.0
()	()	()	()
Hindfoot preserved	34.3 ± 8.1	35.2 ± 7.6	36.0 ± 7.7
()	()	()	()
Hindfoot affected	31.0 ± 7.8	30.4 ± 9.2	30.0 ± 9.3
()	()	()	()

Significant difference was confirmed in the Row factor (hindfoot preserved versus hindfoot affected) in two-way ANOVA ( < 0.001). Data is expressed as mean ± SD. < 0.05 by Turkey’s post hoc test compared with patients with preserved hindfoot in the neutral alignment.
