  1. Group A seemed to have significant difference than the two groups (vs. (B): p = 0.215; vs. distal joints (C): p = 0.004; vs. (D): p = 0.001). Though group B showed more valgus implying values than group C, there was no significant difference between the two groups (vs. (C): p = 0.388). But group B showed a significant difference than the group D (vs. (D): p = 0.002), and group C showed no changes in values compared with group D
