NCT ID NCT07744165
First seen Aug 04, 2026 · Last updated Aug 05, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study investigates whether the thickness of trunk muscles, along with balance and body awareness, relates to shoulder problems caused by rotator cuff injuries. Researchers will compare measurements from people with rotator cuff issues to those without shoulder pain. The goal is to understand how core stability might influence shoulder function, potentially guiding future rehabilitation approaches.
