Supraspinatus Muscle and Tendon Characteristics 1 Year After Surgical Rotator Cuff Repair Compared With Contralateral Shoulder: Data From the CUT-N-MOVE Trial.
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.

OE Journal. 2024;12(21):38 Am J Sports Med. 2024 01-Jul;():. 10.1177/03635465241255143Study Summary
Seventy-nine patients with surgically repaired traumatic full-thickness supraspinatus tears were randomized to receive either progressive exercise therapy (n=38) or usual care (n=41). The primary outcome of interest was the structural comparison of supraspinatus tendon thickness and acromiohumeral distance (AHD) between repaired and contralateral shoulders. Secondary outcomes included supraspinatus muscle thickness, neovascularization, and effects of tendon retear or limb dominance. Outcomes were assessed at the 1-year follow-up. Overall, the study revealed that the repaired shoulder had a significantly thinner supraspinatus tendon and reduced AHD compared to the contralateral shoulder across both treatment groups, with no significant impact from early progressive exercise.
