Table 2 Logistic regression model for several factors associated with radiological recurrence of hallux valgus deformity (HV) (hallux valgus angle (HVA) > 15°) and the number of screws used for fixation after reversed L-shaped osteotomy (ReveL) for HV (n = 799)

From: The influence of the number of screws and additional surgical procedures on outcome in hallux valgus treatment

  1. Abbreviations: OR odds ratio, % percent, CI confidence interval, ReveL reversed L-shaped osteotomy, HV hallux valgus deformity
  2. *Adjusted for confounders and effect modifiers: age, sex, preoperative hallux valgus angle, number of screws, additional surgical technique for hallux valgus, time period, and body mass index. Note: The effect modifier Akin osteotomy was not included in the final model since it is already included in additional surgical techniques for hallux valgus
