Abduction Angle | Visit 1 | Visit 2 | P Value‡ | ||
Median* (Interquartile Range) | P Value† | Median* (Interquartile Range) | P Value† | ||
0° to 30° | 4.2 (1.8-6.8) | 0.008§ | 2.5 (1.5-6.4) | 0.20 | 0.13 |
30° to 60° | 2.2 (1.2-3.8) | 1.4 (0.6-4.7) | 0.38 | ||
60° to 90° | 2.0 (1.4-2.8) | 2.1 (1.1-3.2) | 0.23 | ||
0° to 90° | 2.6 (1.7-4.0) | 2.4 (1.9-3.8) | 0.94 |
The 25th and 75th percentiles are given in parentheses.
P value for comparison of the values between different abduction segments within a visit is derived by mixed-model repeated-measures analysis of variance using rank-transformed data.
P value, derived with the Wilcoxon signed-rank test, for the comparison of certain abduction segments between visits.
Post hoc analysis of this comparison by statistical contrasts showed p = 0.02 for 0° to 30° versus 30° to 60°, p = 0.001 for 0° to 30° versus 60° to 90°, p = 0.09 for 0° to 30° versus 0° to 90°, p = 0.41 for 30° to 60° versus 30° to 90°, and p = 0.38 for 30° to 60° versus 0° to 90°.
