Unable to undergo MRI examination due to claustrophobia and other reasons; 4. Individuals with a history of rotator cuff repair on the affected side, or combined with other bone, joint, or muscle soft tissue injuries in the same limb; 5. Patients with subscapular muscle injury; 6. Combining any disease or symptom that may affect the efficacy evaluator, such as Hamada classification of grade 3 shoulder joint disease; 7. Residual rotator cuff tendon fat infiltration classified by Goutallier as>=grade 3; 8. Individuals who have taken oral steroids or received steroid injections within 6 weeks prior to surgery; 9.
