About this study

To evaluate the association between rotator cuff tear and the proximal migration of humeral head

Read the detailed description

In this research, 60 patients with unilateral rotator cuff tear in Peking University People's Hospital in 2018 are planned to be recruited .They will receive Magnetic Resonance Imaging(MRI) and X-ray of the painful shoulder before enrollment in this study, the duration between the two examinations was no longer than 1 week, also there is no past history of surgery in the selected shoulders. There is no other exclusion criteria. Upward Migration Index(UMI) is the ratio between the distance of humeral head center to the lower surface of acromion, and the radius of humeral head circle. It can help to minimize the effect of anatomy difference and imaging magnification, compared with the traditional acromiohumeral distance(AHD). Then we use the Spearman correlation analysis to evaluate the relationship between UMI and fatty degeneration, rotator cuff tear size and the thickness of ruptured supraspinatus tendon from X-ray and MRI.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Rotator Cuff Tear, run by Peking University People's Hospital.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Dec 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Yichong Zhang, MD (15210802766, 875274428@qq.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Correlation between rotator cuff tear size and the superior migration of humeral head (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 2 Dec 2017.
