From: Biomechanical evaluation of immediate stability with rectangular versus cylindrical interbody cages in stabilization of the lumbar spine

Figure 9

The distribution of normalized range of motion (median, quartiles and range) following cage insertion. (The ROM of intact motion segment is = 1). There was no significant difference between the two cage groups in flexion-extension (FE) and rotation (ROT). Although there was a trend of better stability in lateral bending (LAT) with rectangular cages, the difference was not significant.
