dc.description.abstractContext: To investigate the effects of steroid injection (STE), prolotherapy (PRO), and exercise therapy in the treatment of partial tears of the supraspinatus. Design: A retrospective cohort study. Methods: A total of 64 patients with clinically and radiologically diagnosed partial-thickness supraspinatus tear who received either a cortisone injection (STE), dextrose PRO, or physical therapy combined with home-based exercise therapy were included. Main outcome measures were patients' visual analog scale scores, Western Ontario Rotator Cuff (WORC) Index scores, and the Shoulder Pain and Disability Index scores at the baseline, 3 weeks, and 3 months. Results: The effect of group, time, and group-time interaction on visual analog scale, WORC, and Shoulder Pain and Disability Index scores was statistically significant (P<.001). Visual analog scale and Shoulder Pain and Disability Index scores were the lowest in the STE group at week 3, and the lowest in the PRO group at month 3 (P < .001). WORC scores of the STE group were the highest at week 3 (P < .001). At month 3, WORC scores of STE and PRO groups were similar (P = .089), but significantly higher than exercise therapy. Conclusions: Corticosteroids provide a fast pain-relieving effect and improvement in function in partial-thickness rotator cuff tears, but these effects diminish over time, whereas PRO provides a long-lasting effect.en_US
