Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Taewoo Lho"
Taewoo Lho's recent research primarily focuses on rotator cuff injuries, including the effects of corticosteroid injections, surgical interventions, and rehabilitation outcomes, with an emphasis on gene expression and protein alterations in relation to fatty infiltration and muscle atrophy.
Significant findings include evidence that frequent corticosteroid injections negatively impact gene and protein expressions related to muscle health in chronic rotator cuff tear patients, suggesting a need for careful consideration of injection frequency in treatment protocols.
Additionally, Lho's systematic review indicates that while the Latarjet procedure may improve stability and sports return after failed Bankart repairs, it is associated with increased postoperative pain and complications, highlighting the trade-offs in surgical choices for shoulder injuries.
