            plot (R = Pearson correlation coefficient) displaying the correlation between coaxial angle and coaxiality index. (F) Bland–Altman plot assessing accuracy
            as the relative deviation from the mean values of the coaxial angle and coaxiality index. A total of 228 patients in the 3DP group and 384 patients in the
            non-3DP group were included in the analysis. Pearson correlation coefficient and Bland–Altman plot were used to analyze the correlations of variables.
            Accuracy was defined as a deviation of ≤10% from the mean.
