Incidental findings in diagnostic imaging are common, but follow-up recommendations often lack consistency. The Society of Radiologists in Ultrasound (SRU) issued guidelines in 2021 for managing incidentally detected gallbladder polyps, aiming to balance follow-up with avoiding overtreatment. There is variable adherence to these guidelines in radiology reports, however, which makes it difficult for the clinician to pursue appropriate follow-up for the patient.

We studied whether such parameters are correlated with mid-term patient-reported outcome (PRO) scores in pediatric patients.We retrospectively reviewed data from 213 patients (104 girls) treated surgically for Gartland type-II (n = 84) or type-III (n = 129) SCH fractures from 2008-2016.

- The study aimed to establish the minimal clinically important differences (MCIDs) for three shoulder assessment tools after biceps tenodesis, focusing on 1-year outcomes.
- It involved 52 patients and analyzed various preoperative factors such as age, shoulder motion, and pain levels to see how they affected the achievement of MCIDs.
- The findings revealed specific MCIDs for each assessment scale (ASES: 13, SSV: 12, VAS: 1.6), with predictors including age over 41, higher preoperative pain scores, and poorer shoulder function.
