Data are expressed as number of shoulders with percentages. If data are missing, the total number of shoulders within a variable is reported after the slash. The P-values of the unadjusted regression analysis are presented.
The mean of PROMs was described in 3 acute and 1 delayed nonoperatively treated shoulder.
Significant P-values are indicated in bold.
Data were analyzed using a Fisher's exact test.
