Summary
This study looks for genetic differences that may make some people more likely to have rotator cuff tears or affect how well they heal. Researchers will compare DNA from 3,500 adults with and without shoulder tears, all confirmed by MRI. The goal is to better understand why tears happen and why some treatments work better for certain people.
