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.
Clinical and Structural Evaluations of Rotator Cuff Repair With and Without Added Platelet-Rich Plasma at 5-Year Follow-up: A Prospective Randomized Study
Am J Sports Med. 2018 Nov;46(13):3134-3141. doi: 10.1177/036354651879589575 patient scheduled for arthroscopic repair of a supraspinatus tear were randomized to repair with or without augmentation with platelet-rich plasma. The current study sought to compare clinical scores and healing on MRI at 60-month follow-up. Results demonstrated no significant differences between groups at 60-months in either UCLA score, Constant score, pain on a visual analog scale, or tendon healing on MRI according to the Sugaya classification.
