Rotator cuff tendinitis: comparison of subacromial injection of a long acting corticosteroid versus oral indomethacin therapy. (In Journal of Rheumatology, 1986, 13 (3) 608-613, cited in PASCAL data bank.)

OBS

Although the rotator cuff refers generically to a collection of four muscles of the shoulder, it is specifically the supraspinatus that most commonly is involved in tendinitis, probably owing to the constant stress resulting from humeral impingement against the coracoacromial arch.
