MME is greater in those with OA and with weight-bearing. MME correlates with BMI, age, KL grade, and the KOOS ADL subscale score. Finally, standing MME of 4.2 mm yielded a higher positive likelihood ratio to differentiate between healthy knees and those with medial compartment OA than the previously reported value of 3.0 mm.
