Figure 5

The average change in gap between the radial and proximal fragment. (A) The average gap in the case of fixation without radial styloid screws (-) tended to decrease at about 10 sec after start of loading compared to that in cases with the screws (+), although the differences were not statistically significant and there was no final difference between the 2 groups. (B) The average change in gap between the ulnar and proximal fragment. The average gap in the cases of fixation without radial styloid screws (-) decreased after 10 sec under the loading, compared to that in cases of fixation with the screws (+), though the differences were not significant.
