Abstract
One of the most prevalent orthopedic musculoskel et al conditions that is becoming more significant because of the high cost of healthcare is rotator cuff tears. Rotator cuff tears have a variety of unknown causes. According to earlier research, there may be a connection between rotator cuff tears and an elevated serum lipid profile in the western population. As a result, we conducted research in our Indian community to determine whether hypercholesterolemia and rotator cuff tears are related. after receiving the Institutional Ethics Committee's approval, during our study period, we prospectively collected fasting lipid samples from the community of people who complained of shoulder pain and visited our hospitals. An ultrasonography of the affected shoulder revealed the rotator cuff tear in 40 individuals. fourty were seen for problems unrelated to handcuffs. Strict inclusion and exclusion guidelines were adhered to. According to our research, there is no statistically significant (p=0.526) link between our patient's with rotator cuff tears and hypercholesterolemia. When compared to the cuff intact group, patients with rotator cuff tears had higher TC, TG and LDL levels. When compared to the group that had their cuffs intact, HDL was lower. There was no statistically significant relationship seen between hypercholesterolemia and rotator cuff tears in the Indian population.
