The purpose of this study was to determine the 50 most cited articles on rotator cuff tear and their characteristics.
Thomson ISI Web of Science was searched for the following search terms "rotator cuff" and "tear." The following characteristics were determined for each article: author(s), year of publication, source journal, geographic origin, article type (and subtype), and level of evidence for clinical articles.
The number of citations ranged from 1558 to 253. The 50 most often cited articles were published in 7 journals. The majority of the articles (n = 46) were clinical, with the remaining representing some type of basic science research. Among clinical articles, the case series (n = 23) was the most common article subtype. Nine articles were methodologic in that they proposed a new classification/scoring system or technique. The most common level of evidence was Level IV (n = 31).
This article provides clinicians, researchers, and trainees with a group of articles that should be taken into consideration as building blocks in the treatment of rotator cuff tears.
Level IV, literature review.
本研究旨在确定关于肩袖撕裂的最具引用价值的 50 篇文章及其特征。
在 Thomson ISI Web of Science 中搜索以下检索词：“rotator cuff”和“tear”。确定每篇文章的以下特征：作者、发表年份、来源期刊、地理来源、文章类型（和亚型）以及临床文章的证据水平。
引用次数从 1558 次到 253 次不等。最常被引用的 50 篇文章发表在 7 种期刊上。大多数文章（n=46）为临床文章，其余为某种基础科学研究。在临床文章中，病例系列（n=23）是最常见的文章类型。有 9 篇文章是方法学的，因为它们提出了一种新的分类/评分系统或技术。最常见的证据水平是四级（n=31）。
本文为临床医生、研究人员和学员提供了一组应作为治疗肩袖撕裂的基础的文章。
四级，文献综述。
