The gold standard was a definitive diagnosis at follow\u2010up visit. All variables associated with acute limping in children were analysed in univariate and multivariable analyses.

After multivariable analysis, the relevant variables for distinguishing between TS and differential diagnoses were: age 3\u201310\u2009years, absence of fever, absence of local inflammation, sudden onset of limping on awakening. An algorithm combining these variables was developed (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009297) and validated internally (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009175) for children &gt;12\u2009months with limping for \u226410\u2009days, with a specificity of 98.2% and a positive likelihood ratio of 19.6.
