NCT ID NCT07183774
First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 24, 2026 · Updated 29 times
Summary
This study looks at whether age-related muscle loss, called sarcopenia, is linked to the type and location of rotator cuff tears in the shoulder. Researchers will measure muscle strength and thigh thickness in 104 adults aged 40-75 with shoulder problems. They will then compare shoulder MRI scans to see if sarcopenia changes tear patterns. The goal is to better understand risk factors, not to test a new treatment.
