The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect on the results of patients applied with arthroscopic full layer total layer rotator cuff repair made according to the shape and size of the tear.The study included a total of 120 patients applied with arthroscopic full layer rotator cuff repair as single or double row repair. The patients were separated into 3 groups of 40 according to the shape of the tear, as Group A (crescent type), Group B (U type), and Group C (L type).The mean age of the whole sample was 66.68 ± 6.86 years (range, 50-81 years). A statistically significant difference was determined between the groups in respect of constant murley (CM), American shoulder and elbow surgeons score (ASES), and University of California Los Angeles score (UCLA) scores (P < .05). The scores of Group A of all the scales were found to be higher than those of Group C (P < .05). In single row and double row repair of small and medium-sized tears of all shapes, no significant difference was determined in respect of the CM and UCLA scores (P > .05).No significant difference was determined between single and double row repair of crescent type tears of all sizes. In large U-shaped tears, the CM, ASES, and UCLA scores were determined to be high in double row repair.

Introduction: Exercise-based physiotherapy is an established treatment of rotator cuff injury. Objective assessment of at-home exercise is critical to understand its relationship with clinical outcomes. This study uses the Smart Physiotherapy Activity Recognition System to measure at-home physiotherapy participation in patients with rotator cuff injury based on inertial sensor data captured from smart watches.

The globally prevalent rotator cuff tear has a high re-rupture rate, attributing to the failure to reproduce the interfacial fibrocartilaginous enthesis. Herein, a hierarchically organized membrane is developed that mimics the heterogeneous anatomy and properties of the natural enthesis and finely facilitates the reconstruction of tendon-bone interface. A biphasic membrane consisting of a microporous layer and a mineralized fibrous layer is constructed through the non-solvent induced phase separation (NIPS) strategy followed by a co-axial electrospinning procedure.

Ultrasound imaging is vital for musculoskeletal assessment due to its real-time, high-resolution capabilities and safety. While protocols exist for rotator cuff evaluation, comprehensive guidelines for imaging the latissimus dorsi and teres major muscles are lacking. This article fills this gap by presenting a detailed ultrasound protocol for these muscles, essential for shoulder stability and movement in overhead athletes.

Rotator cuff tendon injuries often lead to shoulder pain and dysfunction. Traditional treatments such as surgery and physical therapy can provide temporary relief, but it is difficult to achieve complete healing of the tendon, mainly because of the limited repair capacity of the tendon cells. Therefore, it is particularly urgent to explore new treatment methods.
