This technical note describes a method of diagnosing adhesive capsulitis of the shoulder based on the real-time study of abduction movement under fluoroscopy control after opacification of the joint cavity with contrast media. This movement passively or actively shows a limitation of the abduction, a scapulohumeral block, or a weak or even an absence of rolling of the humeral head in the glenoid cavity, transforming the abduction into a shoulder elevation.

Introduction: The incidence of adhesive capsulitis (AC) is higher in patients with diabetes mellitus. While AC is usually treated non-operatively, diabetic patients are more likely to require more extensive treatments such as manipulation under anesthesia (MUA) or arthroscopic capsular release. Despite the recent surge in popularity of GLP-1 agonists ("GLP-1s") for the treatment of type 2 diabetes (T2DM), there is a lack of literature describing the effect of GLP-1 use on the incidence and management of AC in patients with T2DM.

Background: Painful hemiplegic shoulder (PHS) is a prevalent and challenging complication following a stroke and can significantly impair a patient's engagement in rehabilitation, leading to poorer functional outcomes and extended hospital stays. This retrospective cohort study aims to investigate the incidence, etiology, and management of PHS in stroke inpatients, focusing on the effectiveness of various therapeutic interventions.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of subacute stroke inpatients who developed PHS during rehabilitation at a single center.

Shoulder Injury Related to Vaccine Administration (SIRVA) is a complication caused by improperly administered vaccinations. It triggers an inflammatory cascade that damages shoulder structures, resulting in prolonged shoulder pain and restricted range of motion. Common diagnoses in SIRVA patients include shoulder bursitis (all classified as subacromial bursitis), adhesive capsulitis, and rotator cuff injuries such as tears or tendinopathy.
