TGF-β Small Molecule Inhibitor SB431542 Reduces Rotator Cuff Muscle Fibrosis and Fatty Infiltration By Promoting Fibro/Adipogenic Progenitor Apoptosis.

PLoS ONE, 2016
Rotator cuff tears represent a large burden of muscle-tendon injuries in our aging population. While small tears can be repaired surgically with good outcomes, critical size tears are marked by muscle atrophy, fibrosis, and fatty infiltration, which can ...

Postoperative Supraspinatus Muscle Volume Restoration Is Associated With Tendon Healing and Strength Recovery After Rotator Cuff Repair: Deep‐Learning‐Based Volumetric Analysis of the Entire Muscle With Clinical Correlation

Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To quantify supraspinatus muscle volume (SPV) change after rotator cuff repair using deep‐learning‐based segmentation of full‐coverage magnetic resonance imaging and evaluate its associations with clinical, radiologic parameters, and retears. Methods This retrospective study analyzed rotator cuff repair patients with a minimum 2‐year follow‐up,

Injection of Leukocyte‐Poor Platelet‐Rich Plasma During Rotator Cuff Repair Can Increase Healing Rate but Does Not Affect Clinical Outcomes: A Systematic Review and Meta‐analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials

Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To evaluate the efficacy of injected leukocyte‐poor platelet‐rich plasma (LP‐PRP) during arthroscopic rotator cuff repair, primarily in reducing failure rates and, secondarily, in improving shoulder function and clinical outcome. Methods A systematic review was performed in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and
