Protocol summary

Study aim
Evaluating the effectiveness of adipose-derived stem cell in repair of torn rotator cuff tendons of shoulder
Design
This single blind study is the second phase of a clinical trial. 30 patients will be selected from the clinics of Rasool Hospital and they are divided into two groups of 15 people based on the restricted randomization method.
Settings and conduct
After entering the study, patients will be randomly assigned to one of two intervention and control groups. In the first group (intervention group), the individual's sample is placed in the culture medium, and after performing various laboratory procedures, mesenchymal cells are prepared in the clean room of Motahari Hospital after 2 month and These cells are transferred to the sports medicine department of Rasool Hospital and injected into the torn tendon.second group, which is the control group, does not receive mesenchymal cells.Considering the difference of the intervention implemented in the intervention group with the control group the investigator and the data analyst can be kept blind.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: More than 30 Years of Age; Shoulder pain; Tendon total tear in shoulder MRI Exclusion Criteria: Partial tear of tendons; Calcific tendinitis; Shoulder capsulitis
Intervention groups
At first, 20 to 30 cc of fat will be collected by liposuction from the abdomen and the flanks. The fat sample inside a sterile bag containing Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) (Sigma) - Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) with penicillin/streptomycin antibiotic, will be transferred to the clean room in the shortest time. After the preparation of mesenchymal stem cell, it would be injected in the torn tendon. 1 cc of sterile water will be injected in the torn tendon in the control group
Main outcome variables
Pain

Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
Restricted randomization method is used for randomization and 30 patients after entering the study will be divided into two intervention and control groups (15 people in each group).The type of treatment according to the number of patients in both groups is written on paper and placed in closed envelopes and poured into a container. A person who is completely unfamiliar with the study process holds the container containing the envelopes in front of the patient and the patient randomly picks up an envelope and after opening the envelope, it is determined which is the patient's group and type of treatment.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Single blinded
Blinding description
