Summary

This study translated a 5-question survey called the Baltimore Orthopedic Subscapularis Score (BOSS) into Turkish. The survey helps doctors tell apart a specific type of rotator cuff tear. Researchers tested it with 42 Turkish-speaking patients to make sure it works as well as the original English version.

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 successful, this could provide Turkish-speaking doctors with a reliable tool to better diagnose subscapularis tears in rotator cuff patients.

What could go wrong

This is a small, completed translation study with only 42 participants, so results may not apply broadly. It does not test any treatment.
