Objective To explore the short and long term efficacy of ultrasound therapy combined with muscle imbalance adjustment training in patients with adhesive capsulitis(AC) ofthe shoulder. Methods A total of 60 AC patients were divided into an observation group and a control group,both each consisting of 30 cases. The observation group underwentultrasound therapy along with muscle imbalance adjustment training,while the control group received acupuncture treatment,both for a duration of 20 days. The Visual Analogue Scale(VAS),goniom-eter for ROM,Manual Muscle Testing(MMT),Constant-Murley Shoulder Score,and modified Barthel index were used to access shoulder jointpain level,range of motion (ROM),peripheral muscle strength,shoulder joint func-tion,and daily living abilities,respectively. The Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) and Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) were utilized to evaluate the levels of anxiety and depression.All the assessments were conducted and compared between the two groups before treatment,at the end of treatment,and at 6 and 12 months after treatment. Results Both groups showed varying degrees of improvement in ROM,MMT,VAS,Constant-Murley score,modified Barthel index,and emotional status compared to pre-treatment. The observation group demonstrated superior outcomes in posterior shoulder extension strength,VAS,Constant-Murley score,modified Barthel index,HAMA,and HAMD scores at the end of treatment (P<0.05). At 6 months post-treatment,the observation group showed better shoulder joint flexion,extension,abduction,and adduction ROM,as well as muscle strength in flexion,external rotation,and internal rotation,VAS,Constant-Murley score,modified Barthel index,HAMA,and HAMD scores. At 12 months after treatment,the observation group continued to show superior outcomes in all the aforementioned indexes (P<0.05). Conclusion The combination of ultrasound therapy and muscle imbalance adjustment training can effectively reduce shoulder joint pain,improve ROM,enhance muscle strength around the shoulder joint,improve shoulder joint function,alleviate anxiety and depression,and ultimately enhance the quality of life for patients with AC.

BACKGROUND:Our previous studies found that decreased expression of connexin 43 and its Ser368 phosphorylation after myocardial hypothermic ischemia-reperfusion was closely associated with decreased cardiac conduction velocity and reperfusion arrhythmia.OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect of changes in membrane-type matrix metalloproteinase 2,matrix metalloproteinase 2 and collagen type Ⅳ on the expression of connexin 43 and its Ser368 phosphorylation and electrical conduction in the myocardial extracellular matrix after hypothermic ischemia-reperfusion.METHODS:Sixteen Langendorff extracorporeal cardiac perfusion models were successfully established from SD rats and randomly divided into a control group(n=8)and a hypothermic ischemia-reperfusion group(n=8).The control group was balanced perfused with 37 ℃ Krebs-Henseleit solution for 15 minutes and then continued to be perfused with 37 ℃ Krebs-Henseleit solution for 90 minutes.The hypothermic ischemia-reperfusion group was balanced perfused with 37 ℃ Krebs-Henseleit solution for 15 minutes,and then the heart was arrested for 60 minutes by injection of 4 ℃ Thomas solution.During the cardiac arrest,the periphery was protected by 4 ℃ Krebs-Henseleit solution.Half-volume 4 ℃ Thomas solution was reperfused 30 minutes after the arrest.After stopping the arrest,the heart was reperfused with 37 ℃ Krebs-Henseleit solution for 30 minutes.The occurrence of arrhythmias,rebeating time,and the duration of arrhythmias were recorded from the immediate time point to the end of the reperfusion period.Conduction velocity,absolute inhomogeneity,and inhomogeneity index were measured using the Mapping Lab multi-channel electrophysiological mapping system at the time of balanced perfusion for 15 minutes(T1),reperfusion for 15 minutes/continuous perfusion for 90 minutes(T2),and reperfusion for 30 minutes/continuous perfusion for 105 minutes(T3).The relative expression levels of membrane-type matrix metalloproteinase 2,matrix metalloproteinase 2,collagen type Ⅳ,connexin 43,and its Ser368 phosphorylation in ventricular tissue were detected by western blot assay.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)No arrhythmia occurred in the control group.There were six cases of arrhythmia in the hypothermic ischemia-reperfusion group during reperfusion.Rebeating time and duration of arrhythmias were(25.38+12.02)and(158.67±67.68)seconds,respectively.(2)The conduction sochronal diagrams at T1,T2,and T3 in the control group were uniform and regular in direction,and the conduction velocity at T2 and T3 was not different from that at T1(P>0.05).The conduction isochronal diagrams at T2 and T3 in the hypothermic ischemia-reperfusion group were uneven and irregular in direction,and the conduction velocity was slower than that at T1(P<0.01).The conduction velocity at T2 and T3 in the hypothermic ischemia-reperfusion group was slower than that in the control group(P<0.01).Conduction dispersion was greater in the hypothermic ischemia-reperfusion group than that in the control group at T2 and T3(P<0.05).(3)Compared with the control group,the protein expressions of membrane-type matrix metalloproteinase 2 and matrix metalloproteinase 2 in the hypothermic ischemia-reperfusion group were increased(P<0.05 or P<0.01),and the protein expression levels of type Ⅳ collagen,connexin 43 and its Ser368 phosphorylation were decreased(P<0.05 or P<0.01).(4)The results indicate that after hypothermic ischemia-reperfusion,myocardial extracellular matrix remodeling may mediate the downregulation of myocardial connexin 43 and its Ser368 phosphorylation,slowed conduction velocity and increased conduction dispersion,thereby increasing the risk of arrhythmia.
