Abstract
Summary of the research findings
The purpose of the study was to identify genetic variants associated with rotator cuff disease by performing a genome-wide association study (GWAS) for shoulder impingement using the UK Biobank (UKB) cohort and then combining the GWAS data with a prior GWAS for rotator cuff tears. The loci identified by the GWAS and meta-analysis were examined for changes in expression following rotator cuff tearing using RNA sequencing.
3,864 European ancestry shoulder impingement cases, 5,701 European ancestry rotator cuff tear cases, up to 614,568 European ancestry controls
