Abstract
Background: Treatment of rotator cuff diseases often involves various arthroscopic procedures but their combined effectiveness remains contentious, especially in complex cases.
Methods: We focused on patients with degenerative shoulder cuff diseases requiring arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. Searches covered multiple databases (Medline, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and Cochrane Clinical Answers) up to April 1, 2024. Bias risk was assessed using RevMan (v 5.4), and a network meta-analysis was conducted with netmeta (v 2.8).
Result: From 16 studies, 1232 patients (average age, 56.2 years; balanced sex ratio) were included. Arthroscopic rotator cuff repair ranked highest in functional score networks, surpassing other interventions. Physiotherapy was superior for pain relief compared to arthroscopic procedures combined with platelet-rich plasma (mean, 2.5; 95% confidence interval, 4.48-0.52). Arthroscopic rotator cuff repair and subacromial decompression were significantly superior to arthroscopic rotator cuff repair and subacromial decompression combined with platelet-rich plasma (MD, 1.80; 95% CI, 3.39-0.21).
Discussion: Moderate bias risks were noted in both networks due to blinding issues and methodological quality reporting. Arthroscopic rotator cuff repair is favored for improving shoulder function, while other procedures or intra-articular treatments offer no significant benefits. Regarding pain management, physiotherapy is preferred; however, more evidence is needed to support this recommendation and caution is advised.
期刊介绍：
Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research is an open access journal that encompasses all aspects of clinical and basic research studies related to musculoskeletal issues.
Orthopaedic research is conducted at clinical and basic science levels. With the advancement of new technologies and the increasing expectation and demand from doctors and patients, we are witnessing an enormous growth in clinical orthopaedic research, particularly in the fields of traumatology, spinal surgery, joint replacement, sports medicine, musculoskeletal tumour management, hand microsurgery, foot and ankle surgery, paediatric orthopaedic, and orthopaedic rehabilitation. The involvement of basic science ranges from molecular, cellular, structural and functional perspectives to tissue engineering, gait analysis, automation and robotic surgery. Implant and biomaterial designs are new disciplines that complement clinical applications.
JOSR encourages the publication of multidisciplinary research with collaboration amongst clinicians and scientists from different disciplines, which will be the trend in the coming decades.
