[PMID: 37330353 DOI: 10.1016/j.jos.2023.05.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/27/2022] [Revised: 02/05/2023] [Accepted: 05/09/2023] [Indexed: 06/19/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND For patients with rotator cuff tear (RCT), the contra-lateral shoulders have higher risk of RCT than general population. It has been proved by several previous studies. The focus of this study is to obtain the data of contra-lateral rotator cuff tear in Chinese population, and to find the rules of contra-lateral rotator cuff tear through statistical analysis. METHODS From March 2016 to January 2020, patients who underwent shoulder arthroscopic surgery were included in the study, we conduct bilateral shoulder ultrasound before surgery, patients information collection include gender, age, occupation and whether received contra-lateral rotator cuff surgery within 1-3 years. The above information was statistically analyzed. RESULTS According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 401 patients were included. The incidence of contra-lateral rotator cuff tear was 24.3%, 5.58% of them underwent contra-lateral rotator cuff repair surgery within 3 years. The degree of contra-lateral rotator cuff tear was positively correlated with the degree of the primary side; Patients with full-thickness rotator cuff tear were more likely to have contra-lateral rotator cuff tear than patients with partial rotator cuff tear. For patients with supraspinatus tendon tear, the contra-lateral rotator cuff tear risk increases, For patients with subscapularis muscle tear, the contra-lateral rotator cuff tear risk doesn't increases. Contra-lateral rotator cuff tear is related to age, the risk of contra-lateral rotator cuff tear is higher in elderly patients. CONCLUSIONS The contra-lateral RCT data obtained in our study was 24.3%, significantly lower than that of previous studies. The reasons may include ethnic variation, lifestyle, and proportion of heavy physical labor. The condition of contra-lateral rotator cuff is closely related to affected side rotator cuff tear.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE There is paucity of literature on the impact of patients' gender on recovery and treatment success after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. This study investigates the effect of gender on patient-reported outcomes preoperatively and postoperatively (minimum 2 years), and to determine if gender affects the attainment of patient-acceptable symptomatic state (PASS) thresholds. METHODS 266 patients (117 males, 149 females), who underwent primary arthroscopic rotator cuff repair for atraumatic, full-thickness tears, were included. Functional outcomes and pain scores were collected preoperatively and postoperatively. Percentage of attainment of PASS for the various outcome scores was calculated and compared between males and females. RESULTS Women had statistically significantly poorer functional outcome and pain scores preoperatively and at 1 and 2 years postoperatively (P < 0.01). They also experienced less improvement in outcome scores throughout the postoperative period. Women had statistically significantly lower rates of PASS attainment at 2 years postoperatively. CONCLUSION Women experience greater pain and poorer shoulder function compared with men preoperatively, and up to 2 years postoperatively. Women are less likely to achieve PASS thresholds postoperatively, compared to their male counterparts. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective Cohort Study. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III.

Abstract
PURPOSE In September 2021, the Federal Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs in Germany (BMAS) recommended recognising rotator cuff lesions caused by occupational long-term overhead work, repetitive movements, hand-arm-vibration and carrying and lifting heavy loads as an occupational disease. To gain a more detailed understanding of the correlation between occupational risk factors and lesions of the rotator cuff, a systematic literature review was carried out to determine their influence on the development of rotator cuff disease. MATERIAL AND METHOD A systematic literature review was used to search in the databases PubMed, Cochrane and Web-of-Science for papers dealing with occupational shoulder load and associated shoulder disorders. The influence of overhead work, repetitive movements, hand-arm-vibrations and carrying and lifting heavy loads were examined. RESULTS 58 studies were read in full text, of which 13 papers were included in the meta-analysis. In all risk factors, a significant association can be found with the strongest dose-response relationship in "overhead work" and "repetitive movements": overhead work: 2.23 (95% CI 1.98-2.52), repetitive movements: 2.17 (95% CI 1.92-2.46), hand-arm-vibration: 1.59 (95% CI 1.13-2.23), carrying and lifting heavy loads: 1.57 (95% CI 1.15-2.15). CONCLUSION Although a significant effect could be shown in our study for all the four risk factors examined, due to the low number of studies with high-quality study design and insufficient pathophysiological explanation for the development of a rotator cuff disease in these mechanical activities, no reliable correlation can currently be established.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION In symptomatic patients with rotator cuff tear, MRI and radiographic studies have ascribed the pain symptom to insufficient humeral head depression during arm elevations. The arm adductors such as the teres major and pectoralis major may contribute to depression of the humerus head during arm elevations. Researchers have demonstrated that neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) of the serratus anterior and lower trapezius can control scapular motions and improve acromiohumeral distance. It is unknown, however, if adductor neuromuscular training could help patients with rotator cuff tear. MATERIALS AND METHODS A cross-sectional study of NMES of the teres major and pectoralis major was conducted on 30 symptomatic subjects with rotator cuff tear. We measured the acromiohumeral distance by ultrasonography and scapular kinematics during arm elevation with a three-dimensional motion tracking system. RESULTS The acromiohumeral distance significantly increased during NMES of the teres major (0.73 mm, p < 0.001). However, the distance significantly decreased with NMES of the pectoralis major (0.78 mm, p < 0.001). Additionally, scapular upward rotation was greater during NMES of the teres major than during NMES of the pectoralis major (3.4°, p < 0.001). Scapular external rotation decreased significantly more during NMES of the pectoralis major than during NMES of the teres major (1.6°, p = 0.003). CONCLUSIONS NMES of the teres major can increase acromiohumeral distance and scapular upward rotation during arm elevation. However, the decreased upward and external rotation of the scapula during arm elevation with NMES of the pectoralis major may be associated with subacromial impingement.

[PMID: 37731546 PMCID: PMC10507353 DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2023.1221807] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2023] [Accepted: 08/23/2023] [Indexed: 09/22/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction: The objective of this systematic review was to analyze the existing scientific evidence on the influence of dietary strategies, exercise, and sleep disorders on the symptomatology of patients with chronic shoulder pain, as well as to assess the methodological quality of the literature collected. Methods: The selection criteria were as follows: we included randomized controlled clinical trials written in English that investigated the effects of such interventions in patients with chronic shoulder pain and excluded studies where pre-operative rehabilitation or rehabilitation combined with corticosteroid injections was performed. We searched six databases Pubmed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CINAHL, Sportdiscus and Scopus, using the keywords "shoulder pain," "fasting," "physical therapy modalities," "rehabilitation," "exercise," "circadian clocks," and "chronic pain" to select randomized controlled clinical trials conducted in humans and written in English. The last search was conducted on 24/01/2023. (PROSPERO:CRD42023379925). Results: We used the tool proposed by the Cochrane Handbook to assess the risk of bias in the included studies of the 17 studies included, nine had a high risk of bias, two studies had an unclear risk of bias, and the remaining six studies had a low risk of bias. A total of 17 articles were selected, including 10 studies that showed a positive influences of exercise on chronic shoulder pain and five studies that showed a negative influence of sleep disorders on this patient profile. The remaining two articles analyzed the influence of nutritional strategies and metabolic problems in patients with chronic shoulder pain. The total sample size of the 17 included articles amounted to 9,991 individuals. Discussion: Studies confirm that exercise generates a hypoalgesic effect that improves chronic shoulder pain, functionality, and quality of life. Although dietary strategies and sleep disorders are known to influence chronic shoulder pain, there is a lack of studies that conduct interventions on these problems to assess how chronic shoulder pain varies.

Abstract
Rotator cuff tears are an important cause of shoulder pain and are caused by degeneration or trauma of the shoulder tendon at the anatomical neck of the humeral head. The understanding and research of rotator cuff tears have a history of hundreds of years, and their etiology, diagnosis, and treatment have a complete system, but some detailed rules of diagnosis and treatment still have room for development. This research paper briefly introduces the diagnosis and treatment of rotator cuff tears. The current situation and its valuable research direction are described.

Abstract
Purpose To determine the prevalence of systemic laboratory abnormalities among patients undergoing rotator cuff repair (RCR). Methods Patients who underwent RCR at the authors' institution for 1 year between October 2021 to September 2022 were retrospectively identified. Preoperative laboratory values, including serum sex hormones, vitamin D, hemoglobin A1C, and a lipid panel, were obtained as part of our routine practice during the study period. Demographics and tear characteristics were compared in patients with laboratory data and those without. For included patients with laboratory data, mean laboratory values and percentage of patients with abnormal laboratory values were recorded. Results During a 1-year period of time, 135 RCRs were performed, of which preoperative labs were obtained on 105. Of these, 67% were sex hormone deficient, 36% were vitamin D deficient, 45% had an abnormal hemoglobin A1C, and 64% had an abnormal lipid panel. In total 4% had "normal" labs. Conclusions In this retrospective study, sex hormone deficiency is highly prevalent among patients undergoing RCR. Nearly all patients undergoing RCR have systemic laboratory abnormalities involving either sex hormone deficiency, vitamin D deficiency, dyslipidemia, and/or prediabetes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cardiovascular risk factors have been shown to be relevant to onset of rotator cuff tear, but their influence on healing remains to be determined. OBJECTIVE To assess the individual and cumulative impact of cardiovascular risk factors on tendon healing after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. MATERIAL AND METHOD A single-center prospective study included 90 patients undergoing arthroscopic repair of isolated distal supraspinatus tendon tear. Only isolated full-thickness tears without anteroposterior extension, retraction (Patte stage ≤ 2) or fatty involution were included. Tendon healing was assessed on ultrasound according to the 5 types of the Sugaya classification. Clinical and functional assessment at 12 months used Constant score. Cardiovascular comorbidities were screened for in the preoperative anesthesiology consultation and control consultation: smoking, high blood pressure, dyslipidemia, diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular history, and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. RESULTS Ninety patients with a mean age of 59.6±6.95 years were included for analysis. 77.7% of cuffs showed healing on ultrasound, without signs of retear (stage 1-3), 16.6% showed partial retear (stage 4) and 6.6% showed no healing, with tendon retraction (stage 5). Mean Constant score improved by 37.5 points (p=0.001), for a global score of 78 at 12 months. Multivariate analysis identified several significant cardiovascular factors for poor healing: active smoking (p=0.002), dyslipidemia (p=0.006), high blood pressure (p≤0.001) and obesity (p=0.02). Cumulative comorbidity was associated with poor tendon healing, with significant impact as of 2 cardiovascular risk factors. Constant score decreased significantly according to healing stage (p≤0.001). CONCLUSION The present study confirmed the involvement of cardiovascular risk factors in bone-tendon healing disorder, with significant impact as of 2 factors. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV; low-power prospective clinical series.

Abstract
Background The association between tendon damage and fluoroquinolone (FQ) antibiotics has been well documented. However, there is limited data evaluating the impact of postoperative FQ use on outcomes of primary tendon repairs. The purpose of this study was to compare rates of reoperation for patients with FQ exposure after primary tendon repair versus controls. Methods A retrospective cohort study was conducted using the PearlDiver database. All patients who underwent primary repair of distal biceps ruptures, Achilles tendon ruptures, and rotator cuff tears were identified. For each tendon, patients who were prescribed FQs within 90 days postoperatively were propensity score matched at a 1:3 ratio with controls without postoperative FQ prescriptions across age, sex, and several comorbidities. Rates of reoperation were compared at two years postoperatively with multivariable logistic regression. Results A total of 124,322 patients who underwent primary tendon procedures were identified, including 3,982 (3.2%) patients with FQ prescriptions within 90 days postoperatively: 448 with distal biceps repair, 2,538 with rotator cuff repair, and 996 with Achilles tendon repair. These cohorts were matched with 1,344, 7,614, and 2,988 controls, respectively. Patients with postoperative FQ prescriptions exhibited significantly higher rates of revision surgery after primary repair of distal biceps ruptures (3.6% vs. 1.7%; OR 2.13; 95% CI, 1.09-4.04), rotator cuff tears (7.1% vs. 4.1%; OR 1.77; 95% CI, 1.48-2.15), and Achilles tendon ruptures (3.8% vs. 1.8%; OR 2.15; 95% CI, 1.40-3.27). Conclusion Patients with FQ prescriptions within 90 days after primary tendon repair demonstrated significantly higher rates of reoperations for distal biceps, rotator cuff, and Achilles tendon repair at two years postoperatively. To achieve optimal outcomes and avoid complications in patients following primary tendon repair procedures, physicians should consider prescribing alternative non-FQ antibiotics and counsel patients on the risk of reoperation associated with postoperative FQ use.

[PMID: 35788057 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2022.05.025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2022] [Revised: 05/19/2022] [Accepted: 05/30/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Full-thickness rotator cuff tears (FTRCTs) represent a common shoulder injury that, if untreated, can progress in size, become increasingly painful, and inhibit function. These lesions are often surgically repaired, with double-row arthroscopic repair often preferred for larger tears. Biological augmentation technologies have been developed to improve rates of postoperative radiographic retear and enhance patient-reported outcomes after surgical FTRCT repair. This study sought to confirm that augmented repair with a bioinductive bovine collagen implant results in favorable retear rates and patient outcomes with follow-up to 2 years. METHODS A prospective multicenter cohort study was undertaken to determine the efficacy and safety of augmenting single- or double-row arthroscopic repair of FTRCTs with a bioinductive bovine collagen implant. Of 115 adult patients participating, 66 (57.4%) had medium (1-3-cm) tears and 49 (42.6%) had large (3-5-cm) tears. Magnetic resonance imaging and patient-reported outcomes (American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Standardized Shoulder Assessment Form [ASES] and Constant-Murley Score [CMS]) were performed and recorded at baseline, 3 months, 1 year, and 2 years. RESULTS Mean duration of follow-up was 2.1 years (range, 1.5-2.9 years). Between baseline and 2-year follow-up, mean total thickness of the supraspinatus tendon increased by 12.5% for medium tears and by 17.1% for large tears. Radiographic retear was noted in 7 of 61 available patients (11.5%) with medium tears, and in 14 of 40 patients (35.0%) with large tears. In both groups, these tears primarily occurred before the 3-month follow-up visit (13 of 21 [61.9%]). Radiographic retear with the supplemented double-row (DR) repair technique was 13.2% overall (12 of 91 DR patients; 11.3% for medium tears and 15.8% for large tears). The minimal clinically important difference was achieved by >90% of patients with both medium and large tears for both ASES and CMS. There were 2 serious adverse events classified by the treating surgeon as being possibly related to the device and/or procedure (1 case of swelling/drainage and 1 case of intermittent pain). Nine patients (7.8%; 4 medium tears and 5 large tears) required reoperation of the index rotator cuff surgery. CONCLUSION Final 2-year data from this study confirm that using this implant in augmentation of arthroscopic double-row repair of FTRCTs provides favorable rates of radiographic retear and substantial functional recovery. The relative safety of the device is also further supported.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In patients with a known unilateral posterosuperior rotator cuff tear (PSRCT), the ability to predict a contralateral PSRCT may assist in earlier diagnosis and improved patient outcomes. PURPOSE To determine factors associated with bilateral PSRCT and their most predictive combinations using a nonhospitalized general population. STUDY DESIGN Cross-sectional study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS This study involved 736 individuals (n = 1472 shoulders) drawn from a rural cohort. PSRCT was diagnosed using magnetic resonance imaging. Symptoms of the contralateral shoulder were not considered. The demographic, physical, social, metabolic, and imaging factors, as well as comorbidities, were evaluated using logistic regression analysis. Cutoff values for the significantly associated variables obtained from multivariable logistic regression analysis were calculated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. The areas under the ROC curve (AUCs) of the combinations of significantly associated variables were compared using the DeLong method to determine the combination most predictive of bilateral PSRCT. The likelihood ratio and the posttest probability for each of the combinations were assessed. RESULTS Age ≥61 years, manual labor, critical shoulder angle (CSA) ≥35°, retraction degree of Patte ≥ grade 2, biceps tendon injury, and metabolic syndrome were significantly associated with bilateral PSRCT in multivariable analysis (P < .001). The 1-by-1 combination of any 4 of the 6 associated factors significantly increased the AUC of any smaller combinations of those 6 factors (P < .001). The AUCs of the 4-somes were all similar (P ≥ .383) and were not significantly increased by further addition of identified associated factors (P ≥ .422). Any combination of 4 of the 6 associated factors was highly predictive of bilateral PSRCT, each having a minimum AUC of 0.70, a likelihood ratio of >10, and a minimum posttest probability of 80%. CONCLUSION Unilateral PSRCT, accompanied by any 4 of the variables of age ≥61 years, manual labor, CSA ≥35°, retraction degree of Patte ≥ grade 2, biceps tendon injury, and metabolic syndrome, is highly predictive of PSRCT in the other shoulder.

[PMID: 34687917 PMCID: PMC9053296 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2021.10.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2021] [Revised: 10/04/2021] [Accepted: 10/06/2021] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite the considerable public health burden of rotator cuff tears, there is no consensus on risk factors associated with symptomatic rotator cuff tears. In this study, a large data source was used to identify factors associated with symptomatic rotator cuff tears. We defined cases of rotator cuff tears as those verified by imaging or operative reports and controls as symptomatic shoulders without rotator cuff tears as verified by imaging or operative reports. METHODS We performed a case-control study of patients with and without symptomatic rotator cuff tears by use of the Vanderbilt University Medical Center de-identified electronic medical record system, the Synthetic Derivative, with records on >2.5 million patients from 1998 to 2017. Cases and controls were confirmed by individual chart review and review of imaging and/or operative notes. A final set of 11 variables were analyzed as potential risk factors for cuff tears: age, sex, body mass index (BMI), race, smoking history, hypertension, depression/anxiety, dyslipidemia, carpal tunnel syndrome, overhead activity, and affected side. Multivariable logistic regression was used to estimate the association between predictor variables and the risk of having a rotator cuff tear. RESULTS A total of 2738 patients were selected from the Synthetic Derivative, which included 1731 patients with rotator cuff tears and 1007 patients without rotator cuff tears. Compared with individuals without tears, those with rotator cuff tears were more likely to be older (odds ratio [OR], 2.44; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.12-2.89), to have a higher BMI (OR, 1.45; 95% CI, 1.24-1.69), to be of male sex (OR, 1.56; 95% CI, 1.32-1.85), and to have carpal tunnel syndrome (OR, 1.41; 95% CI, 1.03-1.93). Patients with rotator cuff tears were less likely to have left shoulder symptoms (OR, 0.68; 95% CI, 0.57-0.82) and to have depression/anxiety (OR, 0.77; 95% CI, 0.62-0.95) compared with the control group, which had symptomatic shoulder pain without rotator cuff tears. CONCLUSIONS In a large imaging and operative report-verified case-control study, we identified advancing age, male sex, higher BMI, and diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome as risk factors significantly associated with an increased risk of rotator cuff tears. Left shoulder symptoms and depression/anxiety were less likely to be associated with rotator cuff tears compared with symptomatic shoulders without rotator cuff tears. Contrary to some prior reports in the literature, smoking was not associated with rotator cuff tears.

Abstract
Rotator cuff tendon injuries often occur at the tendon-to-bone interface (i.e., enthesis) area, with a high prevalence for the elderly population, but the underlying reason for this phenomenon is still unknown. The objective of this study is to identify the histological, molecular, and biomechanical alterations of the rotator cuff enthesis with maturation and aging in a mouse model. Four different age groups of mice (newborn, young, adult, and old) were studied. Striking variations of the entheses were observed between the newborn and other matured groups, with collagen content, proteoglycan deposition, collagen fiber dispersion was significantly higher in the newborn group. The compositional and histological features of young, adult, and old groups did not show significant differences, except having increased proteoglycan deposition and thinner collagen fibers at the insertion sites in the old group. Nanoindentation testing showed that the old group had a smaller compressive modulus at the insertion site when compared with other groups. However, tensile mechanical testing reported that the old group demonstrated a significantly higher failure stress when compared with the young and adult groups. The proteomics analysis detected dramatic differences in protein content between newborn and young groups but minor changes among young, adult, and old groups. These results demonstrated: (1) the significant alterations of the enthesis composition and structure occur from the newborn to the young time period; (2) the increased risk of rotator cuff tendon injuries in the elderly population is not solely because of old age alone in the rodent model.

Abstract
Objective To summarize the research progress of interfacial tissue engineering in rotator cuff repair. Methods The recent literature at home and abroad concerning interfacial tissue engineering in rotator cuff repair was analysed and summarized. Results Interfacial tissue engineering is to reconstruct complex and hierarchical interfacial tissues through a variety of methods to repair or regenerate damaged joints of different tissues. Interfacial tissue engineering in rotator cuff repair mainly includes seed cells, growth factors, biomaterials, oxygen concentration, and mechanical stimulation. Conclusion The best strategy for rotator cuff healing and regeneration requires not only the use of biomaterials with gradient changes, but also the combination of seed cells, growth factors, and specific culture conditions (such as oxygen concentration and mechanical stimulation). However, the clinical transformation of the relevant treatment is still a very slow process.

Abstract
Rotator cuff tears are common shoulder injuries expected to increase with the growth of the aging population. Although a small subset of patients with low functional demands can be treated nonoperatively, surgical intervention is a cost-effective solution, which can restore shoulder function and help patients return to activity sooner. While multiple surgical options are available, rotator cuff repair is a highly utilized procedure with varying success. Due to a large proportion of rotator cuff repairs still failing to completely heal, this procedure requires careful planning to achieve anatomical and biomechanically stability. New technology and techniques are being explored to help increase the success of rotator cuff repairs with an increasing focus on augmentation. The current article gives a brief overview of pertinent anatomy, treatment options, and challenges in healing of rotator cuff repairs. Thereafter, the merits of different types of rotator cuff repair augmentation available will be discussed as well as the authors' experience in utilizing biologic augmentation and surgical technique.

Abstract
Background Bilateral rotator cuff tears are not uncommon and the timing of the surgical treatment of both shoulders is debated. In the present study, we aimed to compare the clinical outcomes of patients who underwent single-stage or staged bilateral arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. Methods From March 2013 to May 2018, a retrospective review on all patients who underwent bilateral arthroscopic rotator cuff repair at our department was performed. Patients were separated into 2 groups: single-stage and staged. The minimum follow-up period was 2 years. The visual analog scale (VAS), American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score, University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) score, Constant-Murley (Constant) score, the range of motion (ROM) of the shoulder and the hospitalization costs were evaluated for comparison between the two groups before and after the operation. Differences between groups were assessed using t-tests and ANOVA. Results All 51 patients completed follow-up of 2 years, single stage (n = 24) and staged group (n = 27). There was no significant difference in the VAS, ASES, UCLA and Constant scores between the single-stage group and the staged group before the operation. Postoperative clinical scores were significantly improved in both groups (P < 0.05). All outcome scores were significantly different between the two groups at 6 months postoperatively, and the staged scored better than the single-stage (P < 0.05). At 12, 18, and 24 months after the operation, the outcome scores were not significantly different between the two groups. At follow-up, the ROM of the shoulder was not significantly different between the two groups. In the single-stage group, the outcome scores and ROM were similar for both shoulders and comparable to the staged group. We also found significant cost savings in the single-stage group (4440.89 ± 130.55 USD) compared to the staged group (5065.73 ± 254.76 USD) (p < 0.05). Conclusions Patients receiving single-stage or staged bilateral arthroscopic rotator cuff repair showed similarly good clinical outcomes at follow-ups longer than 6 months. Moreover, good outcomes were observed on both sides of the single-stage group.

Abstract
Expression of proinflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin (IL)-6 (IL-6) and metalloproteases, are elevated in patients with rotator cuff tear (RCT). In order to investigate the role of IL-6 gene polymorphisms on RCT risk, we genotyped two SNPs on IL-6 gene (rs1800795 and rs1800797) in 138 RCT patients and 137 healthy controls using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and Sanger sequencing. The IL-6 expression in shoulder joint synovial fluid was determined by using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method. The constant score and visual analog scale (VAS) were used to evaluate the clinical outcome of two s (surgicsal vs. conservative) for RCT patients. For rs1800795, individuals with the GG genotype or G allele had significantly higher risk of RCT. Elevated risk of tear size was associated with the GG genotype of the rs1800795 polymorphism. The IL-6 rs1800797 polymorphism was also associated with an increased risk of RCT, especially among female, drinkers, and individuals with B(MI) < 25 kg/m2. The elevated levels of IL-6 gene were observed among the mutant genotype of rs1800795/rs1800797 polymorphism. Surgical group is significantly better than conservative treatment from the perspective of constant score and VAS. Furthermore, CG genotype of rs1800795 polymorphism increased the constant score at 6 months in comparison with CC genotype. In conclusion, our study supports a role of IL-6 rs1800795/rs1800797 polymorphisms on increased RCT risk. The RCT patients with CG genotype of rs1800795 polymorphism have more obvious surgical treatment effects by influencing the IL-6 expression.

Abstract
Objective To investigate the effect of unilateral rotator cuff repair on the contralateral shoulder in patients with bilateral rotator cuff tears. Methods A clinical data of 46 patients with bilateral rotator cuff tears met the criteria between May 2016 and May 2019 was retrospectively analyzed. Of 46 patients, 23 patients underwent bilateral conservative treatment (conservation group), 23 patients underwent unilateral arthroscopic rotator cuff repair, and conservative treatment on the contralateral side (operation group). There was no significant difference in gender, age, disease duration, degree of rotator cuff tear, and comorbidities between 2 groups ( P>0.05). Before operation and at 6 and 12 months after operation, the degree of the rotator cuff tear was measured by MRI, and the shoulder function was evaluated by the visual analogue scale (VAS) score, University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) score, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score, and range of motion (ROM) (forward flexion, external rotation, external rotation at 90° of abduction, and internal rotation). The evaluation results of the non-surgical side of shoulders in the operation group were compared with one side of shoulders in the conservation group. Results All incisions healed by first intention without any complication after operation. All patients were followed up 12 months. MRI reexamination showed that the degree of rotator cuff tear of the contralateral shoulder in the operation group increased significantly after operation ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference between the operation group and the conservation group before operation ( P>0.05), but the rotator cuff tear of the contralateral shoulder in the operation group was more serious than that of the conservation group at 6 and 12 months after operation ( P<0.05). At 6 and 12 months after operation, the VAS score, UCLA score, and ASES score significantly improved when compared with the preoperative scores in 2 groups ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the VAS score, UCLA score, and ASES score between 2 groups before operation ( P>0.05). The function scores in the conservation group were better than those in the operation group at 6 and 12 months after operation ( P<0.05). There were significant differences in the ROM of shoulder between pre- and post-operation in 2 groups ( P<0.05). And there was no significant difference between 2 groups at pre- and post-operation ( P>0.05). Conclusion For patients with bilateral rotator cuff tears, the unilateral rotator cuff repair can aggravate the rotator cuff tear of contralateral shoulder.

BACKGROUND AND AIM Several patient-related factors have been identified which are responsible for the development of rotator cuff tears. The purpose of the study was to assess various parameters which can be risk factors for the development of supraspinatus tendon tear. METHODS A total of 100 patients with symptomatic rotator cuff tear, aged > 18 years, of either gender, presenting to the outpatient department were included in this cross-sectional study. Magnetic resonance imaging was done and based on its results; patients were identified for the type of tear. Demographic, clinical, and biochemical factors affecting the tears were assessed using logistic regression analysis. RESULTS Factors such as age, gender, pain radiation, night pain, and analgesic intake had significant association with supraspinatus tendon tears. CONCLUSION "Pain radiation" and "Analgesic intake" were two new parameters found associated with the supraspinatus tendon tears. New parameters that have been assessed as risk factors will help in better understanding of supraspinatus tendon tears.

Abstract
Objectives Rotator cuff-related shoulder pain (RCRSP) is a common upper limb complaint. It has been suggested that this condition is more common among people with cardiometabolic risk factors. This systematic review has synthesised evidence from case–control, cross-sectional and cohort studies on the association between metabolic syndrome (MetS) and RCRSP. Design and data sources Five medical databases (MEDLINE, EMBASE, SCOPUS, CINAHL and AMED) and reference checking methods were used to identify all relevant English articles that considered MetS and RCRSP. Studies were appraised using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS). Two reviewers performed critical appraisal and data extraction. Narrative synthesis was performed via content analysis of statistically significant associations. Results Three cross-sectional, two case–control and one cohort study met the inclusion criteria, providing a total of 1187 individuals with RCRSP. Heterogeneity in methodology and RCRSP or MetS definition precluded a meaningful meta-analysis. Four of the included studies identified associations between the prevalence of MetS and RCRSP. Studies consistently identified independent cardiometabolic risk factors associated with RCRSP. All studies were level III evidence. Summary and conclusion The low-moderate quality evidence included in this review suggests an association between MetS and RCRSP. Most studies demonstrated moderate quality on appraisal. The direction of association and cardiometabolic factors influencing should be investigated by longitudinal and treatment studies. These preliminary conclusions and clinical utility should be treated with caution due to limitations of the evidence base.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Scoring systems integrating possible prognostic factors and predicting rotator cuff healing after surgical repair could provide valuable information for clinical practice. PURPOSE To determine the prognostic factors predictive of rotator cuff healing after surgical repair and to integrate these factors into a scoring system. STUDY DESIGN Case-control study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS The authors reviewed the records of 603 patients who, at least 12 months after primary rotator cuff repair by a single surgeon, had magnetic resonance imaging or computed tomographic arthrography to assess repair integrity. The mean age at the time of surgery was 60 years (range, 39-81 years), and 378 patients were women (62.7%). Previous known or suggested factors affecting cuff integrity were analyzed through univariate and multivariate analyses. Factors identified in the multivariate analysis were integrated in a scoring system based on odds ratios (ORs). RESULTS The overall healing failure rate was 24%. The following independent risk factors were identified in the multivariate analysis: age >70 years at the time of surgery ( P = .003, OR = 2.71), size of the tear in anteroposterior dimension ( P = .033, OR = 1.94) and retraction ( P = .000, OR = 4.56), fatty infiltration of infraspinatus exceeding grade 2 ( P = .001, OR = 2.91), low bone mineral density (T score ≤ -2.5, P = .04, OR = 1.95), and high level of work activity ( P = .036, OR = 2.18). A 15-point scoring system comprised the following: 4 points for retraction; 3 points for fatty infiltration of infraspinatus; and 2 points for anteroposterior tear size, age, bone mineral density, and work activity, weighted according to multivariate analysis ORs. Patients with ≤4 points had a 6.0% healing failure rate, and those with ≥5 and ≥10 points had 55.2% and 86.2% healing failure rates, respectively. CONCLUSION A numerical scoring system including significant clinical and radiological factors was designed to predict healing of the rotator cuff after surgical repair. This scoring system helped predict the adequacy of the repair and assist in deciding the appropriate treatment options.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare perioperative characteristics and postoperative outcomes of both shoulders in patients who underwent arthroscopic bilateral rotator cuff repair sequentially and to assess the associated factors that would affect the anatomic healing in staged bilateral rotator cuff repair. METHODS The study enrolled 64 patients who underwent bilateral rotator cuff repair with follow-up imaging at least 12 months postoperatively. We allocated the shoulders operated on first to the surgery I group and those operated on second to the surgery II group. Visual analog scale (VAS) pain and satisfaction scores, range of motion, the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score, the Simple Shoulder Test score, and healing failure were evaluated. RESULTS Range of motion improved with no significant between-group differences (all P > .05). In the surgery II group, VAS pain and VAS satisfaction scores were significantly worse at 6 months postoperatively (P = .048 and P = .041, respectively) but were comparable at final follow-up (P = .598 and P = .065, respectively). American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons and Simple Shoulder Test scores at 6 months were worse in the surgery II group (P = .038 and P = .048, respectively) but similar at final follow-up (P = .786 and P = .087, respectively). Tear size was similar between the 2 surgical procedures (κ = 0.537, P < .001). Of the 11 patients with nonhealing in the surgery I group, 7 (63.6%) had subsequent failure in the other shoulder, and if one shoulder had healing failure, the other shoulder had a high possibility of healing failure as well (κ = 0.373, P = .004). CONCLUSIONS Bilateral arthroscopic rotator cuff repair showed good outcomes at final follow-up on both sides. Tear size was closely related in both shoulders, and healing failure after the first rotator cuff repair was an associated factor with healing failure after the second operation. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level IV, case series.

Abstract
PURPOSE Summarise available evidence comparing the cellular, biochemical, structural and biomechanical properties, and the changes that occur in these parameters in response to stimuli, in differentially loaded tendons across different stages of life. METHODS The PubMed database was searched for literature pertaining to differences between tendons using the term "tendon" or "tendinopathy", plus one or more of the following descriptors: "loading", "positional", "weight- or load-bearing", and "energy-storing". The abstracts were reviewed and relevant full-length articles retrieved and used to assemble a narrative review. RESULTS The incidence and prevalence of tendon disorders ("tendinopathies") is increasing in Western societies, with limited evidence that currently available treatments have any significant long-term effect on the disease course. A key emerging hypothesis is that disease in different tendons and even different regions within a tendon may be distinct. The available literature indicates that there are phenotypic differences, not only in the constitutive compositional and material properties but also in resident cells of positional compared with load-bearing tendons. Evident during early tendon growth, such differences have become well established by adulthood. CONCLUSIONS The pheno-endotype of tendinopathy may be distinct between load-bearing tendons compared to positional tendons, which has translational implications with regard to preventing and managing tendinopathy. Better understanding of the molecular, cellular, and biomechanical pathophysiology underlying disease phenotypes, will allow more targeted/personalised treatment and therefore improve outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rotator cuff disease is a common condition that causes shoulder pain and functional disability. Recent studies suggested that hyperlipidemia might be associated with the development of rotator cuff disease. The objective of this study was to explore the relationship of hyperlipidemia and rotator cuff diseases. METHODS A computerized search using relevant search terms was performed in the PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases, as well as a manual search of reference and citation lists of the included studies. Searches were limited to studies that explored the association of hyperlipidemia and rotator cuff diseases. RESULTS Sixteen studies were included in this systematic review. Ten of sixteen included studies suggested an association between dyslipidemia and rotator cuff diseases, while the other six studies did not find an association. Two studies demonstrated there were an association between statins and reduced risk of developing rotator cuff diseases or decreased incidence of revision after rotator cuff repair. CONCLUSION The current study suggested that there was an association between hyperlipidemia and rotator cuff diseases. Furthermore, current evidence suggested that use of statins could decrease the risk of developing rotator cuff diseases and the incidence of revision after rotator cuff repair. Future high-quality studies are highly needed to confirm these findings.

Abstract
Tendon pathology is a general term used to describe a group of musculoskeletal conditions related to tendons and surrounding structures. There is only limited evidence available regarding the exact aetiology and natural history of tendon pathology. In hypercholesterolaemia environments, lipids could accumulate within the extracellular matrix of the tendon and thus affect the mechanical properties of the tendon. Current evidence suggested that hypercholesterolaemia was an important risk factor in the development and progression of tendon pathology. The severity of hypercholesterolaemia was correlated with the severity of tendon pathology. The translational potential of this article: Hypercholesterolaemia lead to the structural, inflammatory and mechanical changes in tendons, which predispose hypercholesterolaemia patients to a greater risk of tendon pathology. Measurements of serum cholesterol are suggested to be performed in patients presenting with tendon pathology. The strict control of hypercholesterolaemia would mitigate the development and progression of tendon pathology.

Abstract
Background Authors assessed lean body mass (fat free tissue), upper and lower, and bone mineral density (BMD) in patients of osteoporotic bone distal radius fracture (DRF) and degenerative rotator cuff tear (RCT) patients of shoulder. We predict inferior muscle mass and osteoporosis are more frequent in DRF group than RCT group. Methods Between January 2016 and June 2017, overall 38 of DRF and 30 of RCT were eligible for this retrospective comparison study after excluding of patients with compounding factors. BMD and other body composition, fat and lean body mass, were assessed with a single dual energy X-ray absorptiometry in one hospital. Results T-score of spine were −2.2 and −1.6 in DRF and RCT patients with significant difference (P=0.040). Final BMD score, lower score of patient between spine and femoral score, of both group also presented difference with significance, −2.4 of DRF and −1.9 of RCT patients (P=0.047). Diagnosis of osteoporosis was confirmed in 19 patients (50%) from DRF compared with 9 patients (30%) from RCT. The mean lean soft tissue mass of the arm was 3.7 kg and 3.8 kg in the DRF and RCT, respectively, without significant difference (P=0.882). The mean lean body mass of the leg was 11.0 kg and 10.5 kg in the DRF and RCT, respectively, without significant difference (P=0.189). The relative overall appendicular lean mass was not significantly different between groups. Conclusions Even though BMD difference, we did not find muscle mass difference between DRF and RCT patients.
