Status of microcirculation, bioelectrical activity of myocardium and tolerability to physical loads were studied in 120 patients with myocardial infarction with capillary and tropic insufficiency, divided into four groups, over time, before and after course exposure to physical factors such as the "Venoruton" ointment phonophoresis and electromagnetic radiation of millimeter range, as well as complex medicamentous therapy, used alone or in combination. The most striking therapeutic effect was achieved with the above physiotherapeutic measures being combined.

Subcoracoid impingement occurs due to mechanical encroachment of the subscapularis tendon in the subcoracoid space between the coracoid process and lesser tuberosity of the humerus. Although physical therapy is known to have a crucial role in managing this condition, to the best of our knowledge, there is no established physical therapy program in the literature. This case report aims to provide a detailed presentation and diagnosis of a subcoracoid impingement case and to investigate the effects of physical therapy on pain, disability, performance, muscle strength, and ultrasound measurements over a one-year follow-up period.

Ganglion cysts are prevalent benign soft tissue tumors, commonly occurring on the dorsal wrist and often associated with underlying joint structures like the scapholunate ligament (SLL), a critical stabilizer of the wrist. SLL instability, frequently resulting from acute trauma or repetitive stress, can significantly impair wrist function, causing pain, reduced range of motion, and decreased grip strength. This case report details the conservative management of a 25-year-old recreational basketball player who presented with SLL instability and a dorsal ganglion cyst following two separate wrist injuries.
