Are muscle weakness and stiffness risk factors of the development of rotator cuff tendinopathy in overhead athletes: a systematic review

open access: yesTherapeutic Advances in Chronic Disease, 2021
Background: Underlying muscle weakness and stiffness may increase the risk of developing rotator cuff tendinopathy. This systematic review aims to assess existing prospective studies to summarize whether muscle weakness and stiffness are risk factors for

Rotator Cuff Injuries: The Evolving Role of Tissue Engineering [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Aims: Rotator cuff injuries are a common injury associated with a combination of intrinsic and extrinsic causative factors. Although surgical reconstruction is a well established option, this is associated with variable re rupture rates.

Revisiting the anatomy of rotator cuff relevant to rotator cuff injury

open access: yesNational Journal of Clinical Anatomy, 2020
The rotator cuff is the prime stabilizer of the glenohumeral or shoulder joint. The last decade saw introduction of three components, namely, rotator cable, rotator crescent, and rotator interval of rotator cuff, which were being studied and published in dozen of literatures belonging to clinical specialties of orthopaedics and radiology. At times when

Allogenic Umbilical Cord Tissue for Rotator Cuff Injuries. [PDF]

open access: yes
Highly prone to injury, the rotator cuff greatly contributes to the stability and mobility of the shoulder. Clinicians prioritize conservative treatment, resorting to surgery only when necessary, although they are hindered by inherent limitations ...

Biologically based strategies to augment rotator cuff tears [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Lesions of the rotator cuff (RC) are among the most frequent tendon injuries. In spite of the developments in both open and arthroscopic surgery, RC repair still very often fails. In order to reduce the failure rate after surgery, several experimental in

Multi‐Omics Profiling Reveals Immunomodulatory and Pro‐Regenerative Effects of a Graphene Oxide–Collagen Scaffold in Massive Rotator Cuff Tears

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A graphene oxide/collagen scaffold is developed for chronic massive rotator cuff tear repair. The scaffold improves compressive stability, supports reparative mesenchymal differentiation, and modulates the immune microenvironment. In chronic MRCT models, it reduces muscle degeneration, enhances tendon–bone regeneration, and improves functional recovery,
