Objective: To assess the efficacy of injecting various amounts of fluid into the shoulder joints for capsule distension in patients with adhesive capsulitis.
Design: A randomized controlled trial.
Setting: Outpatient clinic of a tertiary care centre.
Participants: Eighty-four patients with adhesive capsulitis underwent a baseline (time0), 6 weeks (time1), and 12 weeks (time2) follow-up after hydrodilitation.
Intervention: Group 1 (n = 42) received 20 ml of lidocaine, steroid, and saline hydrodilatation via posterior glenohumeral recess, while Group 2 (n = 42) received 10 ml of lidocaine, steroid, and saline hydrodilitation.
Main Measures: The primary outcome was the visual analogue scale for pain. The secondary outcomes were shoulder pain and disability index (SPADI) and ROM of the shoulder.
Results: There was a significant reduce in VAS scores for pain, SPADI scores, and increased shoulder ROM in both groups over time; however, the group-by-time interactions for any of the outcomes between groups were not significant except VAS pain in motion. Post-hoc pairwise analysis of the marginal effect of time and group showed that the significant difference of VAS in motion is due to time effect: time1 vs time0 (95% CI -4.09 to -2.68), time2 vs time0 (-4.21 to -2.77), and time2 vs time1 (-0.83 to 0.63), without between-group difference: group 1 vs group 2 (-0.38 to 0.59).
Conclusion: Our study suggests hydrodilatation achieved an optimal effect at time1 for patients with adhesive capsulitis in both groups, and adding more saline offers additional benefits in flexion and external roatation until time2.

Objectives: Primary frozen shoulder is a shoulder joint disease that severely impacts the quality of life of patients, and intra-articular injection is a common treatment method. This study aims to evaluate and compare the therapeutic effects of sodium hyaluronate (SH), corticosteroids (CS), and autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in the treatment primary frozen shoulder.
Methods: A total of 117 patients diagnosed with primary frozen shoulder and treated with a single injection of SH, CS, or PRP into the glenohumeral joint under ultrasound guidance at the Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from January 1, 2020, to December 31, 2022, were included in the study.

Olecranon bursitis (OB) involves fluid accumulation in the bursa, with common causes being trauma and preexisting conditions. Its incidence is difficult to quantify, and risk factors such as diabetes, obesity, and male gender are frequently noted. Hyperlipidemia has been linked to musculoskeletal disorders, but its role as a risk factor for OB remains unexplored.

: The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of ultrasound-guided corticosteroid injection to the subacromial-subdeltoid bursa (SSB) and coracohumeral ligament (CHL) in treating adhesive capsulitis, with a particular focus on evaluating the potential benefits of regular electrotherapy and conventional rehabilitation exercises. : A total of 29 patients with unilateral shoulder pain and restricted shoulder range of motion (ROM) were included. Corticosteroids were delivered to the subacromial-subdeltoid bursa (SSB) and coracohumeral ligament (CHL) through a single percutaneous injection.

Background: The Simple Shoulder Test (SST) is a widely used patient-reported outcome measure for shoulder function. However, there is currently no version of the SST for the Thai population.
Purpose: To cross-culturally adapt and evaluate the reliability and validity of a Thai version of the SST (Thai SST) for patients with shoulder pathologies, using the Thai version of the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score as a comparison tool.
Introduction: Iliopsoas bursitis and tendinopathy are common causes of hip pain and major contributors to snapping hip syndrome, which affects 5-10% of the general population. These conditions often are treated with conservative measures, including corticosteroid injections into the iliopsoas bursa. However, the clinical effectiveness of such injections has not been well studied.
