Changes in the water holding capacity (WHC) and collagen profile in bovine m. infraspinatus during ageing in a vacuum at 3 °C up to 20 days were studied. Moisture, expressible water and total collagen content were determined in raw samples and muscles were then subjected to thermal treatment in steam. Moisture, collagen fractions (total, water-soluble, insoluble, acetic acid-soluble, total soluble) and cooking loss were determined in the cooked meat. Ageing time did not significantly influence WHC (expressible water content as a % of moisture), moisture content in raw and cooked meat or cooking loss. Between the 5th and 10th day of ageing a significant increase was noted in acetic acid-soluble collagen and total soluble collagen content along with a decrease in insoluble collagen content (p b 0.05). A significant negative relationship was found between the expressible water content and the water-soluble collagen. It was concluded that connective tissue ageing of bovine m. infraspinatus might be finished after 10 days.

Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on the challenges of shoulder pain and disability due to rotator cuff tears, emphasizing the need for effective animal models that mimic human injuries for better research in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.
- Researchers developed a reliable rabbit model with a significant supraspinatus tendon defect that mirrors typical human rotator cuff injuries, using a special suturing technique for support.
- Evaluation of different scaffolds revealed that the tendon ECM scaffold led to better tissue regeneration, demonstrating organized fiber structures, while the acellular dermal matrix scaffold showed inferior results.
Background: Arthroscopic revision rotator cuff repairs (RCRs) exhibit lower healing rates and inferior outcomes compared to primary repairs. There is limited evidence regarding the use of bioaugmentation in the setting of revision RCRs. Autologous conditioned plasma (ACP) is a promising adjunct that has been shown to improve healing rates and patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in the primary setting.

Background: Bovine bioinductive collagen implants (herein, "bovine collagen implant") can be used to augment rotator cuff repair. Concern exists that these bovine collagen implants may not yield clinical benefits and may actually increase postoperative stiffness and the need for reoperation.
Questions/purposes: Among patients who underwent primary rotator cuff repair with or without a bovine collagen implant, we asked: (1) Did the proportion of patients undergoing reoperation for postoperative stiffness and inflammation differ between the bovine collagen implant and control groups? (2) Did short-term patient-reported outcomes differ between the two groups? (3) Did the proportion of patients receiving postoperative methylprednisolone prescriptions and corticosteroid injections differ between the two groups?
Methods: We performed a retrospective, matched, comparative study of patients 18 years and older with minimum 2-year follow-up who underwent primary arthroscopic repair of partial or full-thickness rotator cuff tears diagnosed by MRI.

Background: Rotator cuff tears are a prevalent cause of shoulder pain and dysfunction. For those who fail initial conservative treatment, operative intervention can be pursued. A significant and common complication after rotator cuff repair (RCR) is retearing or nonhealing.
