| Variable | Physical labor | Mental labor | P-value |
|---|---|---|---|
| VAS, mean±SD | 2.5±2.3 | 1.3±1.6 | 0.089 |
| ASES score, mean±SD | 77.6±17.1 | 89.0±11.5 | 0.025 |
| RC tear | 21 | 0 | 0.002 |
| Calcific tendinitis of RC | 5 | 0 | 0.201 |
| LHB disease* | 6 | 0 | 0.158 |
| RCD† | 26 | 0 | <0.001 |
VAS: visual analog scale, ASES: American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons, RC: rotator cuff, LHB: long head of biceps, RCD: rotator cuff disease.
LHB disease: LHB tendinitis and LHB tear;
