Background: Since the discovery of rehabilitation as an intervention for rotator cuff injury, its impact on the recovery of rotator cuff injury has attracted crucial attention, and the number of related studies is increasing worldwide. There were no bibliometric and visualized analysis studies in this field. This study aimed to investigate the research hotpots and trends in the rehabilitation of rotator cuff injury bibliometric and visualized analysis and to identify the future development of clinical practice.
Method: The publications regarding rehabilitation of rotator cuff injury from inception to December 2021 were obtained from the Web of Science Core Collection database. The trends of publications, co-authorship and co-occurrence analysis and visualized analysis were carried out using Citespace, VOSviewer, Scimago Graphica software, and R Project.
Results: A total of 795 publications were included in this study. The number of publications significantly increased yearly. The United States published the highest number of related papers and the papers published by the United States had the highest citations. The University of Laval, the University of Montreal and Keele University were the top 3 most contributive institutions. Additionally, the was the journal with the highest number of publications. The most common keywords were "rotator cuff", "rehabilitation", "physical therapy", "management", and "telerehabilitation".
Conclusion: The total number of publications has shown a steady upward trend. The cooperation between countries globally was still relatively lacking, and therefore it is necessary to strengthen cooperation between different countries and regions to provide conditions for multi-center, large sample, and high-quality research. In addition to the relatively mature rehabilitation of rotator cuff injury such as passive motion or exercise therapy, telerehabilitation has also attracted much attention with the progress of science.

Department of Development and Regeneration, KU Leuven, Leuven, Belgium.
Digital muscle reconstructions have gained attraction in recent years, serving as powerful tools in both educational and research contexts. These reconstructions can be derived from various 2D and 3D data sources, enabling detailed anatomical analyses. In this study, we evaluate the efficacy of surface scans in accurately reconstructing the volumes of the rotator cuff and teres major muscles across a diverse sample of hominoids.

Department of Physical Therapist, Universidade Federal de São Carlos, São Carlos, SP, Brazil.
Background: Pectoralis minor (PM) shortening and posterior shoulder tightness (PST) are considered potential soft tissue alterations associated with rotator cuff related shoulder pain (RCRSP). Yet, their precise contribution to pain and disability remains unclear.
Purpose: To explore the association between both PM length and PST and self-reported shoulder pain and disability in individuals with and without RCRSP.
Ultrasound radiomics predict the success of US-guided percutaneous irrigation for shoulder calcific tendinopathy.

Artificial Intelligence and Translational Imaging (ATI) Lab, Department of Radiology, School of Medicine, University of Crete, Voutes Campus, Heraklion, Greece.
Objective: Calcific tendinopathy, predominantly affecting rotator cuff tendons, leads to significant pain and tendon degeneration. Although US-guided percutaneous irrigation (US-PICT) is an effective treatment for this condition, prediction of patient' s response and long-term outcomes remains a challenge. This study introduces a novel radiomics-based model to forecast patient outcomes, addressing a gap in the current predictive methodologies.
