Hello, Can anyone please clarify the difference between ULTT1 and ULTT2. I am seeing conflicting information on these tests in my texts. Which one is done at 10 degrees abduction and which one at 110 degrees abduction and which one implicates axillary nerve vs anterior interosseous? (of course both implicate median nerve)

ULTT1: 110* and anterior interosseous
ULTT2: 10* and musculocutaneous & axillary

I remember our class notes had typos with these, I forget but I think the typos were carried from the text. We were SO confused.
