| Abstract |
Rotator cuff disease is a common condition that causes shoulder pain and functional disability. Recent studies suggested that hyperlipidemia might be associated with the development of rotator cuff disease. The objective of this study was to explore the relationship of hyperlipidemia and rotator cuff diseases. A computerized search using relevant search terms was performed in the PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases, as well as a manual search of reference and citation lists of the included studies. Searches were limited to studies that explored the association of hyperlipidemia and rotator cuff diseases. Sixteen studies were included in this systematic review. Ten of sixteen included studies suggested an association between dyslipidemia and rotator cuff diseases, while the other six studies did not find an association. Two studies demonstrated there were an association between statins and reduced risk of developing rotator cuff diseases or decreased incidence of revision after rotator cuff repair. The current study suggested that there was an association between hyperlipidemia and rotator cuff diseases. Furthermore, current evidence suggested that use of statins could decrease the risk of developing rotator cuff diseases and the incidence of revision after rotator cuff repair. Future high-quality studies are highly needed to confirm these findings. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 27. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 08 November 2019.
All research outputs
#1,478,139
of 25,818,700 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research
#37
of 1,655 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#29,986
of 342,578 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research
#2
of 31 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,818,700 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 94th percentile: it's in the top 10% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,655 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.4. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 97% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 342,578 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 91% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 31 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 93% of its contemporaries.
