There is Benefit to Strengthen the Rotator Cuff and Scapular Muscles in Patients with Lateral Elbow Tendinopathy? A Research Protocol
Background: Lateral elbow tendinopathy (LET) is one of the two most common tendinopathies of the upper limb. An exercise programme consisting of static stretching exercises, isometric and concentric-eccentric training has been recommended for the management of LET. Based mainly on clinical experience, rotator cuff and scapular musculature weakness in LET patients is commonly addressed increasin...

PURPOSE A review was conducted to synthesise the available research literature on the pathogenesis of rotator cuff tendinopathy. RELEVANCE Musculoskeletal disorders of the shoulder are extremely common, with reports of prevalence ranging from one in three people experiencing shoulder pain at some stage of their lives to approximately half the population experiencing at least one episode of sh...
متن کاملLateral Elbow Tendinopathy
Lateral elbow tendinopathy, commonly known as tennis elbow, is a condition that can cause significant functional impairment in working-age patients. The term tendinopathy is used to describe chronic overuse tendon disorders encompassing a group of pathologies, a spectrum of disease. This review details the pathophysiology of tendinopathy and tendon healing as an introduction for a system gradin...
متن کاملRelationship of individual scapular anatomy and degenerative rotator cuff tears.
BACKGROUND The etiology of rotator cuff disease is age related, as documented by prevalence data. Despite conflicting results, growing evidence suggests that distinct scapular morphologies may accelerate the underlying degenerative process. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the predictive power of 5 commonly used radiologic parameters of scapular morphology to discriminate betwee...
متن کاملGene expression analysis in calcific tendinopathy of the rotator cuff.
We evaluated the expression of several genes involved in tissue remodelling and bone development in patients with calcific tendinopathy of the rotator cuff. Biopsies from calcified and non-calcified areas were obtained from 10 patients (8 women and 2 men; average age: 55 years; range: 40-68) with calcific tendinopathy of the rotator cuff. To evaluate the expression of selected genes, RNA extrac...
