  1. ADL activities of daily living, JOA Japanese Orthopedics Association, IQR interquartile range, ROM range of motion. All values are presented as medians and IQRs. The differences were evaluated by the Mann–Whitney test. In cases of normal distribution, the differences were evaluated by Student’s t-test. *1, normal distribution
