Accelerated rehabilitation after double- vs. single-row rotator cuff repair .
This report has been verified
by one or more authors of the
original publication.
This study has been identified as potentially high impact.
OE's AI-driven High Impact metric estimates the influence a paper is likely to have by integrating signals from both the journal in which it is published and the scientific content of the article itself.
Developed using state-of-the-art natural language processing, the OE High Impact model more accurately predicts a study's future citation performance than journal impact factor alone.
This enables earlier recognition of clinically meaningful research and helps readers focus on articles most likely to shape future practice.
OrthoEvidence Journal (OE Journal) - ACE Report
OE Journal. 2016;4(12):38 Am J Sports Med. 2016 Apr;44(4):948-5658 patients with rotator cuff tear and deemed high-risk for postoperative stiffness following arthroscopic repair were randomized to double-row or single-row repair. All patients were managed postoperatively with an accelerated rehabilitation protocol. Patients were followed for 2 years postoperatively, and assessed using the modified University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) shoulder function score, shoulder range of motion, and retear rate. Results demonstrated no significant differences between groups in UCLA score or range of motion, with no cases of shoulder stiffness noted at 2 years. Retear rate was significantly lower in the DR group compared to the SR group, though a Fragility Index score of 0 has suggested possibly limited power for this outcome based on the current sample size.
