The mean\u2009\u00b1\u2009SD shear elastic modulus of the anterior horn of the right medial meniscus was 24.86\u2009\u00b1\u20096.35\u2009kPa and of the anterior horn of the left medial meniscus was 23.86\u2009\u00b1\u20094.49\u2009kPa. A significant inverse correlation was observed between the right medial meniscus elasticity and height. Other demographic factors showed no significant relationship to the anterior horn of the right medial meniscus elasticity. A significant inverse correlation was observed between the anterior horn of the left medial meniscus elasticity and age, while a significant positive correlation was observed between left medial meniscus elasticity and BMI.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>These
