	No of patients	Pullout tension (N)	P value
Biceps tear (no  : partial tear  : partial tear with hypertrophy)	13  : 19  : 14	85.2 ± 40.2  : 92.4 ± 36.8  : 101.7 ± 52.8	0.612
SSC tear (no  : yes)	13  : 33	93.0 ± 47.8  : 93.3 ± 41.3	0.984
Type II SLAP lesion (no  : yes)	26  : 20	88.2 ± 45.3  : 99.7 ± 39.1	0.372
Biceps location (normal  : subluxation or dislocation)	24  : 22	97.8 ± 45.7  : 88.2 ± 39.6	0.453
