Boxplots depict median moment-cycle product (MCP) values, 1st and 3rd quartiles, and whiskers indicate maximum and minimum values (n = 5 for each group). a BFS Reconstruction Plates: no significant differences in MCP between groups. b MPS Straight Plates: plates contoured 9× exhibited significantly lower MCP to failure than those contoured 0× (*p = 0.023). c MPS Flex Plates: 3× contoured plates exhibited significantly higher MCP to failure than 0× ($ p = 0.031) and 9× ( p = 0.032)
