This article has been retracted: please see Elsevier Policy on Article Withdrawal (http://www.elsevier.com/locate/withdrawalpolicy). This article has been retracted at the request of the Editor-in-Chief. Concerns were raised over the provenance of the flow cytometry plots in Figures 6G and 7F, as detailed here: https://pubpeer.com/publications/A46066C72A3E518DD6CA192362E0DC; and here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1r0MyIYpagBc58BRF9c3luWNlCX8VUvUuPyYYXzxWvgY/edit#gid=262337249. In addition, a portion of Figure 2G, ‘miR-15a-5p antagomir’ group appeared to contain image similarities with Figure 2G, ‘Oe-NC’ group. The journal requested that the corresponding author comment on these concerns and provide the raw data. The authors did not respond to this request and therefore the Editor-in-Chief decided to retract the article.

Background: Surgical techniques for biceps tenodesis vary in approach, fixation strategy, and anatomic location without clear superior technique for this common procedure.
Hypothesis/purpose: The purpose of this study was to prospectively evaluate a randomized cohort of patients undergoing arthroscopic suprapectoral (ASBT) with interference screw fixation using an inlay technique versus mini-open subpectoral (MOBT) with a unicortical button implant using an onlay technique with regards to 1) clinical outcome measures and 2) structural healing as evaluated by ultrasound.
Methods: From May 2017 to April 2021, patients undergoing biceps tenodesis were preoperatively randomized to either ASBT or MOBT.

Context: Limited information exists regarding the immediate and short-term effects of scapula retraction exercises (SREs) on acromiohumeral distance (AHD) in subacromial pain syndrome (SPS). This study's 2 main objectives were to investigate (1) the immediate effect of the SRE on AHD at varying shoulder abduction angles in patients with SPS and healthy controls and (2) the effect of the 8-week SRE program on AHD in patients with SPS.
Design: Cross-sectional and pre-post intervention designs were utilized on this study.

Aim: This study aimed to explore the possible bidirectional interrelations between fructose-induced metabolic syndrome (MS) and apical periodontitis (AP).
Methodology: Twenty-eight male Wistar rats were distributed into four groups (n = 7, per group): Control (C), AP, Fructose Consumption (FRUT) and Fructose Consumption and AP (FRUT+AP). The rats in groups C and AP received filtered water, while those in groups FRUT and FRUT+AP received a 20% fructose solution mixed with water to induce MS.
