Frozen shoulder is clinically characterized by pain and reduced ROM. The therapeutic goal of frozen shoulder can be reducing pain and increasing ROM in shoulder joint, resulting in improvement of joint movement. Therefore, this study was conducted to know the effect of mobilization in parallel with conservative physical therapy(H/P, TENS, U/S) in patients with frozen shoulder on subjective pain scale and ROM. 26 patients diagnosed with frozen shoulder were included for study. Among them, 13 patients(experiment group) were managed by mobilization as well as conservative physical therapy, another 13 patients(control group) were only treated by conservative physical therapy alone. All the patients were treated three times a week for 4 weeks, and after each treatment subjective pain scale and ROM were measured. In experimental group, pain has decreased and ROM has increased in abduction, external rotation and internal rotation. In control group, pain has also decreased but ROM has not changed in abduction, external rotation and internal rotation. There were no significant difference in subjective pain scale between two groups but some difference in ROM (external rotation, internal rotation). According to the results, we concluded that both conservative physical therapy and joint mobilization technique are more effective for increasing ROM especially external rotation, internal rotation than conservative physical therapy alone.

본 연구는 개 동결정액 희석액에 pentoxyfilline을 첨가하여 융해 후 정액성상에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 공시견은 2∼3세의 Beagle, English cockers spania, Collie, Grey hound, Shihtzu 5두를 공시하였다. 정액은 수압법 또는 인공질법으로 채취하였고 채취된 정액은 Rota 등(EYT : Egg-yolk Tris extender, 1995)의 방법에 따라 동결정액을 제조하였다. Pentoxyfilline은 동결 보호제가 들어 있는 2차 희석액에 0 mM, 1 mM, 3 mM 농도로 첨가하였으며, 5℃에서 2시간 glycerol 평형을 한 후에 액체질소에 10분간 예비 동결하여 동결정 액을 제조하였다. (중략)

Purpose: To evaluate effectiveness of arthroscopic capsular release combined with manipulation in frozen shoulder. Material and Method: 15 patient who had failed to respond to physical therapy were evaluated, which were treated with arthroscopic capsular release combined with manipulation, from July 1998 to March 2000. Result: At a mean of fifteen months(range, six to twenty four) after the combined procedure, the improvement in the score of Constant and Murley averaged 45 points. The mean improvement in motion was 76 degrees for abduction; 40 degrees and 65 degrees for external rotation in adduction and abduction. Conclusion : Arthroscopic capsular release with manipulation is useful method to treatment the frozen shoulder which was not respond to conservative treatment.

Clinical studies were done on 80 persons who were treated with the acupuncture theraphy frozen shoulder. The following results are obtained. 1. Distribution of sex: male(28 persons), female (52 persons). 2. Causes of illness: work(40 persons), unknown origin(32 persons). 3. Duration of illness: less than 1 month(28 persons), 1-3 month(22 persons), 3-6 months(20 persons). 4. Distribution of occupational: housewife(30 persons), unemployed(22 persons), farmer(16 persons). 5. Distribution according to number of times of treatment rate: 3 weeks(32 persons), 2 weeks(14 persons), 4weeks(10 persons). 6. The classification of abduction disturbance before treatment were Gl group 14 persons, GII group 46 persons, GIII group 20 persons. After treatment were GI group 41 persons, GII group 30 persons, GIII group 9 persons. 7. The classification of HBST disturbance before treatment were GI group 10 persons, GII group 51 persons, GIII group 19 persons. After treatment were GI group 39 persons, GII group 28 persons , GIII group 13 persons. 8. The classification of MWT disturbance before treatment were GI group 25 persons, GII group 37 persons, GIII group 18 persons. After treatment were GI group 44 persons, GII group 25 persons, GIII group 11 persons.

This study was carried out to evaluate the effect of different freezing and thawing rates on the viability, motility and acrosomal changes of frozen canine spermatozoa. The ejaculated semen was extended with Tris-egg yolk buffer containing 8% glycerol and equilibrated for 60 min after cooled to 4$^{\circ}C$ for 58 min. The straws were cryopreserved gradually by slow-cooling at different distance(6, 10 and 17 cm, respectively) from the liquid nitrogen (L$N_2$) to achieve temperature rate of 3, 8.9 and 19$^{\circ}C$ /min. Thawing of the straws was performed in a water bath fur 2 min at 37$^{\circ}C$ and 55$^{\circ}C$ , respectively. The motility of frozen-thawed spermatozoa was assessed by phase-contrast microscopy. To assess their viability and acrosome content, spermatozoa were stained with a vital stain and Fluorescence conjugated lectin Pisum Savitum Agglutinin (FITC/PAS), respectively. Concentration of the ejaculated fresh semen was normal range of 3.44 $\times$ 10$^{8}$ /ml. Freezing temperature were reduced to -110, -70 and -35$^{\circ}C$, as higher distance from liquid nitrogen, 6, 10 and 17 cm, respectively. Freezing at 3$^{\circ}C$/min in distance of 17 cm from liquid nitrogen yielded better motility, viability and rate of intact acrosome than 8.9 or 19$^{\circ}C$/min and the optimal thawing was 37$^{\circ}C$ for 2 min.

Purpose: In order to know the effectiveness of ultrasonographic examination in diagnosis and follow-up evaluation for the frozen shoulder, we compared those with contralateral side in initial and after steroid injection. Materials and Methods: For the 20 unilateral frozen shoulder from July 2012 to July 2013, ultrasonographic examination was tried using reference line 1 (CBT: distance from coracoid process to LHB tendon) and line 2 (CBG: distance from coracoid process to bicipital groove). We tried 1 time steroid injection and compared the improvement in gross motion and reference line with 2 month, 4 month, and 6 month's serial ultrasonographic examination. Results: The differences on CBT line between lesion side and normal side were -5.6 mm, -5.0 mm, and -4.3 mm in neutral (Neut), external rotation (ER) and internal rotation (IR), respectively. The differences on CBG line were -6.1 mm, -4.7 mm, and -5.0 mm respectively (p<0.05). The changes in the reference line after steroid injection were evaluated at 2 month (CBT: -4.8 mm, -3.5 mm, -2.6 mm / CBG: -4.7 mm, -4.0 mm, -3.6 mm), 4 month (CBT: -4.7 mm, -3.2 mm, -1.7 mm / CBG: -4.3 mm, -3.7 mm, -1.2 mm), and 6 month (CBT: -1.1 mm, -2.9 mm, -0.5 mm / CBG: -1.2 mm, -0.7 mm, -0.9 mm). The gross motion was improved at 4 month after injection, from elevation $108^{\circ}$, ER $32^{\circ}$, IR L5 in initial to $133^{\circ}$, $42^{\circ}$, L3 respectively (p<0.05). Pain improved from 7.5 in initial to 3.0 at 2 month on visual analog scale (VAS). Conclusion: The serial examination after steroid injection revealed that the delayed improvement on reference line (6 month) compared with pain (2 month) or gross motion (4 month). Dynamic ultrasonogram was useful in diagnosis and follow-up evaluation of frozen shoulder.

The patient with a posttraumatic stiffness frequently has a history of prolonged immobilization after a traumatic event. Adhesions in the extraarticular humeroscapular motion interface may be present independently or in combination with intraarticular capsular contractures. A through history and physical examination usually reveal the cause and anatomic location of stiffness. Passive stretching exercise program is effective as a first line treatment, but manipulation under anesthesia is usually not effective because of potential complication such as fracture, tendon rupture and neurologic injury. The humeroscapular motion interface adhesion can be released either open or arthroscopically. The combined technique coupled with an aggressive rehabilitation program can provide more effective motion restoration and pain relief.
