Patch-Type Atelocollagen for Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair - RCT .
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.
Effect of Porcine-Derived Absorbable Patch-Type Atelocollagen for Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair: A Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial.
Am J Sports Med . 2024 May;52(6):1439-1448.61 patients with rotator cuff tears were randomized to receive rotator cuff repair and insertion of patch-type atelocollagen (n=31) or conventional rotator cuff repair (n=30). The primary outcome of interest was the constant score. Secondary outcomes of interest included retair rate, visual analog score (VAS), range of motion, American shoulder and elbow surgeons score, University of California, Los Angeles score, and Korean Shoulder Score. Outcomes were assessed preoperatively and at 2, 3, 6 and 12 months postoperatively. There was a significantly lower retear rate in the atelocollagen group and the Signal noise quotient significantly decreased between 6 months and 1 year in the atelocollagen group. No significant difference in any other outcomes assessed.
