Does surgery within 6 months of an acute rotator cuff tear significantly improve outcome?
Our results show improved outcomes with early repair (within 6 months) of acute rotator cuff tears and support the provision of an acute shoulder injury referral clinic.
Although previous evidence suggests chronic oestrogen treatment can improve endothelium-dependent vasodilatation and favourably alter the lipid profile in biological males, these changes are not reflected in changes in systemic arterial compliance. Changes in arterial compliance may not be central to the beneficial effects of oestrogen on vascular function, at least in males.
