  1. Values are mean (95% CI) adjusted by age and Jan Bartonicek classification
  2. SER supination-external rotation, PER pronation-external rotation, FLR fragment length ratio, FAR fragment area ratio
  3. † P-values are calculated by analysis of covariance adjusted for age and Jan Bartonicek classification
