Summary
Role of proinflammatory factors in Patients with Rotator Cuff Disease Objective: To measure the levels of various cytokines and metalloproteases in patients with rotator cuff disease, and control group and to determine the correlations among them.
Detailed description
We hypothesize that cytokines and MMP's level will be significantly higher in patients with RC pathology than in control group and will be related to the time frame since injury (i.e. - higher levels as close to the injury). In addition we will examine possible relation of those levels to the pain curve by using Visual Analogue Scale.
