NCT ID NCT07183774
First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Jun 23, 2026 · Updated 34 times
Summary
This study is looking at 104 people with shoulder problems to see if age-related muscle loss, called sarcopenia, is linked to the type and severity of rotator cuff tears. Participants will have their muscle strength and thigh thickness measured, and their shoulder MRIs will be reviewed. The goal is to understand if sarcopenia influences how rotator cuff tears develop.

What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
What this could lead to
If a link is found, it could help doctors predict rotator cuff tear types based on muscle health and guide personalized treatment plans.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It only looks for a connection, so it won't directly improve patient outcomes. Results may not apply to everyone.
