Patients with type 2A and 2B subscapularis tears (according to the Yoo and Rhee classification) showed differences in belly-press strength ratio, belly-press angle, and bear-hug test. The cutoff value of the 15° belly-press angle showed an accuracy of 69.6% in detecting subscapularis tears with type 2B or higher.
