Comparison of the relation between HSIC and night pain within the rotator cuff injuries.
| Diagnosis | HSIC | P-value | Interaction P-value | |||
| – | + | |||||
| No tear 94 cases | night pain | - | 17 (18%) | 11 (12%) | <0.01 | |
| + | 13 (14%) | 53 (56%) | ||||
| PTT 91 cases | night pain | - | 15 (16%) | 7 (8%) | <0.01 | |
| + | 11 (12%) | 58 (64%) | ||||
| FTT 45 cases | night pain | - | 6 (13%) | 8 (18%) | <0.01 | 0.63 |
| + | 3 (7%) | 28 (62%) | ||||
PTT = partial thickness rotator cuff tear, FTT = full thickness rotator cuff tear.
HSIC: High signal intensity changes in the joint capsule on MRI.
