In diabetics, the frozen shoulder has been difficult to treat. They tend to respond poorly to manipulation. In this report we present the rationale and results of arthroscopic selective capsular release for those patients. Nine patients, who were diabetics, developed frozen shoulders which failed to respond to conservative management. They had persistent pain, stiffness, and limited function. An arthroscopic release was performed by progressively releasing the anterior structures from superior to inferior. Postoperatively physiotherapy was carried out daily to maintain the range of movement. At a follow up of 12 to 37 months the patients were assessed using the American Shoulder Society scheme. In addition, the patients were assessed preoperatively and postoperatively on four criteria: pain, external rotation, abduction and function. We found that the patients were statistically significantly improved in all four categories. Three of the nine patients had no pain, full range of motion compared with the opposite side and full function. There was one poor result of no improvement. The remaining five patients had improved but still had residual abnormalities. We consider arthroscopic release to be an effective treatment for the resistant diabetic frozen shoulder.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of cervical stretching program on neck pain, fatigue and range of motion caused by overuse of smartphone. Methods: We treated stretching program to measure the pain, fatigue, and range of motion of the neck before and after cervical stretching program for experiment group (n=25), control group(n=27) nursing college students using the smartphone. The general characteristics of the subjects and the range of neck pain, fatigue, and cervical range of motion were analyzed using descriptive statistics. The results of the cervical stretching program for neck pain, fatigue, and range of motion of the neck were analyzed using independent t-test. Results: After cervical stretching program, the pain of the neck(t=2.86, p=.006), fatigue(t=5.44, p<.001). flexion(t=-2.10, p=.041), extension(t=-2.84, p=.006), right lateral flexion(t=-2.4, p=.047), left lateral flexion(t=-2.05, p=0.46) and right rotation(t=-4.48, p<.001), left rotation(t=-3.38, p=.001) range of rotation were improved. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that a cervical stretching program can be used as an effective intervention for health problems in musculoskeletal disorders due to smartphone overuse.

본 논문에서는 손가락 관절의 운동범위와 MediaPipe 손 추적기를 이용하여 3 차원 손 추적 방법을 설계하였다. MediaPipe 손 추적기가 추정한 신뢰할 수 있는 2 차원 좌표를 바탕으로 손 랜드마크의 깊이를 추정한 후, 손가락 관절 운동범위와 부합한 결과를 도출하였다. 본 논문에서 제안한 3 차원 손 추적 방법은 전용 하드웨어 없이 동작하며 기존의 3 차원 손 추적기에 비해 보다 직관적인 인간-컴퓨터 인터페이스 확산에 긍정적 영향을 줄 것으로 기대한다.

This study was to performed to get the reference data of the kinematic parameters for normal subjects according to the arm movement type. Forty-five normal subjects participated in this study and preformed four sequence according to the arm movement type : normal arm movement, one arm movement, no arm movement, fitness arm movement. The study data was collected from June to August 2010. The kinematic data were measured using Vicon motion system 6MX3 cameras while each subjects walked through a 10m walkway. There were significant differences according arm movement type in the kinematic parameters such as range of motion (ROM) of the right pelvic, hip in sagittal plane, and ROM of the pelvic, hip, lumbar in coronal plane and ROM of the pelvic, thoracic, lumbar in transverse plane. This study can be utilized as the basic reference data in gait analysis for patients with pathologic gaits.

목적: 자가 골-슬개건-골과 슬괵건을 이용한 전방 십자 인대 재건술의 5년 중기 추시 결과를 비교 분석하고자 한다. 대상 및 방법: 전방 십자 인대 재건술을 시행한 후 5년 이상 추시 관찰이 가능한 65예를 대상으로 하였고, 골-슬개건-골이 38예, 슬괵건이 27예였다. 술 후 평가는 Lysholm 점수, 관절 운동 범위, 대퇴부 중간 부위 둘레 길이, Lachman 검사, 축 이동 검사, KT 2000 관절 계측기를 시행하였고, 술 후 합병증을 평가하였다. 결과: Lysholm 점수는 골-슬개건-골군과 슬괵건국에서 각각 평균 91점, 94.2점으로 슬괵건군이 우수하였고, 대퇴부 중간 부위 둘레 길이는 건측에 비해 각각 평균 1.7cm, 1.3cm의 차이를 보였다. 양 군간에 관절 운동 범위, Lachman 검사, 축 이동 검사 및 KT 2000 관절 계측 결과는 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없었으나, 술 후 합병증은 과도한 보행이나 운동 후 슬관절 동통이 골-슬개건-골군에서 7예, 슬괵건 군에서 4예 관찰되었고, 전방 슬관절 동통이 골-슬개건-골군에서 4예 관찰되어, 골-슬개건-골군에서 더 많이 발생하였다. 결론: 5년 중기 추시에서 자가 슬괵건군이 우수한 슬관절 기능, 적은 합병증 등 임상적으로 우수하였으나 장기 추시가 요할 것으로 사료된다.

Irreducible knee dislocation is a rare injury and often need an open procedure with ligaments reconstruction. This report describes a case of arthroscopic treatment of a patient with traumatic knee dislocation unable to reduce in a closed method. MRI revealed incarceration of the medial collateral ligament and capsule in the medial compartment. And arthroscopic examination confirmed incarcerated medial capsuloligamentous structures which prevented the knee from reduction. Arthroscopic procedure without ligaments reconstruction was complete when the medial condyle was well visualized and the knee reduced. After 4 weeks of immobilization in extension, range of motion exercise and gradual increases in weight bearing was allowed. At the 3- year follow-up, mild laxity was remained but the patient did not have any discomfort of doing ADL activity and showed full range of motion of the knee.

The goal of rehabilitation after ACL reconstruction are return the patient to a reinjury level of activity with stable joint, removing pivot shift phenomenon, preservation of meniscus, restoration of range of motion, and minimize patello-femoral complication. The ACL reconstruction should avoid immediate surgery. The preoperative phase emphasizes two important factors. (1) The patient should have a resolution of knee swelling, a return of full ROM, and a normal gait. (2) The patient should be mentally prepared for the operation and subsequent rehabilitation. The postoperative rehabilitation program emphasizes extension, closed kinetic chain function exercises. The regular follow-up is important.

이 연구의 목적은 발목관절의 발등굽힘 가동범위에 따라 동적 균형능력을 평가하는 Y-Balance Test와의 관계를 규명하고자 하였다. 이 연구 결과 HADR군에서 PLRD(P<.05)와 CS(P<.01)에서 유의한 차이가 나타났으며, 발목관절 발등 굽힘의 가동범위와 뒤안쪽 도달거리(PMRD), 뒤가쪽 도달거리(PLRD) 및 종합점수(CS)만 중등도의 유의한 상관관계가 나타났다. 따라서 발목관절 발등굽힘의 감소는 균형능력 능력을 감소와 관련이 있으며 축구선수의 손상의 예방하기 위해서는 정기적인 발목 관절가동범위를 평가가 필요한 것으로 생각된다.

This study was to investigate the effect of therapeutic exercise with electrical stimulation on knee joint pain, range of motion and muscle strength in patients who underwent anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. The subjects of this study were recruited who diagnosed with anterior cruciate ligament rupture and undergoing anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, total of 20 patients were randomly divided to the 10 control groups and 10 experimental groups. The therapeutic exercise was carried out for 3 weeks with three exercises made by referring to the previous study. The measurement tools used were knee joint pain measurements were made using the visual analogue scale, range of motion was measured using a goniometer, and the muscle strength was measured using a handheld dynamometer. In the statistical analysis, to compare about pre and post test the difference in each same groups was accomplished by using the paired t-test, and compare the difference between the different each groups was accomplished by using the independent t-test. The results of the study showed that the experimental group showed significantly enhanced results than the control group(p<.05). Based on these results, it is concluded that it is effective for the recovery of the patient if the therapeutic exercise with electrical stimulation in parallel with knee joint therapy are performed for the patients with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.
