About this trial
This prospective comparative study aims to investigate the effect of Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) on the outcomes of a standardized rehabilitation program in patients with Rotator Cuff Injuries (RCI). Patients diagnosed with RCI will be divided into two groups based on the presence or absence of MetS, determined by NCEP-ATP III criteria. Both groups will receive the same 4-week physiotherapy protocol including hot pack, TENS, ultrasound, and therapeutic exercises. Pain intensity, pain threshold, muscle strength, kinesthesia, and shoulder functionality will be evaluated before and after treatment. The study hypothesizes that the presence of MetS negatively affects rehabilitation outcomes in patients with RCI by altering inflammation and tissue healing processes.
