A localized area of tenderness over the greater tuberosity is characteristic. This feature is useful in the making of a differential diagnosis from general arthritis of the shoulder. Muscle wasting is seldom noticeable, and it is exceptional for any rise of temperature to occur. Severe pain, ...
Calcific tendonitis can disappear on its own without any treatment. Ignoring the condition is not recommended, however, as it can lead to complications, such as rotator cuff tears and frozen shoulder. Once calcific tendonitis disappears, there is no evidence to suggest it will return. What are t...
Results: Mean percent carotid stenosis and calcification area were 79 and 5% in Va-plaques (40% symptomatic) and 77 and 42% in Vb-plaques (20% symptomatic). Macrophages infiltrating the region of the fibrous cap and the shoulder were more numerous in non-calcified plaques compared with ...
The entrance point of the PDS suture into the supraspinatus tendon was localized in the subacromial space after resection of bursal tissue. We perforated the cuff with a spinal needle in this area to definitively detect the calcification. The calcification was pressed out of the cuff with a ...

Larval growth was measured using image analysis, and calcification was measured by chemical analysis of calcium in their shells. C. virginica experienced a 16% decrease in shell area and a 42% reduction in calcium content when preindustrial and end of 21st century pCO2 treatments were compared. ...
Despite this, DCR has shown that AJ CC is relatively rare when compared to the prevalence of CC in other joints, such as the shoulder (98.9%) [26], the hip (96.6%) [11] or the knee (94.3–100%) [11, 23]. Nonetheless, the reason for the difference remains elusive. Interestingly,...
Rotator cuff tendinopathies are the commonest cause of painful shoulder syndromes in persons of middle age. In primary conditions, the disease process begins in the tendon, while the pathologic changes in secondary tendinopathies are either an extension of diseases from contiguous structures or a...

Figure 2. The distribution characteristics of WSS around the calcified plaque in the straight artery protruding from the lumen. Calcified plaque narrows the arterial lumen with high WSS in the upstream shoulder and disturbed flow downstream with low WSS. It is worth mentioning that the difference ...
