Odds ratios for a simple model predicting failure based on re-displacement criteria after closed reduction and casting of a distal metaphyseal radius fracture in children under 11 years of age

Variable	Odds ratio	95% CI	p value
Initial translation (AP) (10% vs 0–9%)	2.4	(1.0, 6.3)	0.01
PR translation (lat) (10% vs 0–9%)	2.7	(1.1, 7.1)	0.03

Translation was measured in percentage

PR post-reduction, Lat lateral view (sagittal plane), AP antero-posterior view (coronal plane)

*p ≤ 0.05 (statistically significant)
