Objective:To study the effect of repetitive peripheral magnetic stimulation(rPMS)combined with conventional rehabilitation measures on shoulder dysfunction in early stroke.Methods:60 patients with shoulder dysfunction in early stroke were selected,and all of them were admitted to our hospital from August 2021 to August 2023.The patients were randomly grouped into a control group(conventional rehabilitation measures intervention,30 cases)and an intervention group(rPMS and conventional rehabilitation measures intervention,30 cases)according to the lottery method.The pain scores,shoulder mobility,and motor function scores of the two groups were compared.Results:The pain score was lower in the intervention group,and the shoulder mobility and motor function scores were higher in the intervention group(P<0.05)as compared to that of the control group.Conclusion:The effect of combining rPMS and conventional rehabilitation measures in treating shoulder dysfunction in early stroke was remarkable and should be popularized.

Effect of kinesio taping on shoulder pain after stroke

Objective:To discuss the clinical effect of kinesio taping on shoulder pain after stroke. Methods: A total of 60 patients with shoulder pain after stroke in our hospital between July 2016 and March 2018 were divided into the treatment group and the control group according to the SPSS random method, 30 in each group. The treatment group was treated with kinesio taping and combined comprehensive rehabilitation therapy, while the control group received simple comprehensive rehabilitation therapy for 4 weeks. The visual analogue scale (VAS), simplified Fugl-Meyer motor function score (FMA) and range of motion (ROM) were used to evaluate the pain degree, upper limb function and shoulder joint activity of the patients before and 2 and 4 weeks after treatment.Results: There was no difference in VAS score between the two groups before treatment (P>0.05),and the VAS score of the treatment group were significantly lower than those of the control group after 2 weeks and 4 weeks (P<0.05).There was no difference in FMA score between the two groups before treatment (P>0.05), and the FMA scores of the treatment group were significantly higher than that of the control group after 2 weeks and 4 weeks (P<0.05).There was no difference in the shoulder flexion, extension, abduction, internal rotation and external rotation of the two groups before treatment (P>0.05), and the shoulder flexion, extension, abduction, internal rotation and external rotation of the patients in the treatment group were significantly greater than those in the control group after 2 and 4 weeks of treatment (P<0.05).Conclusion:Kinesio taping combined with rehabilitation therapy can alleviate the pain and improve the upper limb function and shoulder motion function after stoke. It worth of clinical use.

Pain management of hemiplegic shoulder pain post stroke in patients from Nanjing,China

We selected 106 hemiplegic patients with shoulder pain hospitalized after stroke from three hospi- tals in Nanjing, China between February 2007 and January 2012. All patients had complete clinical data sets and accounted for 45.5% of the inpatients because of stroke. Results showed that the number of patients with hemiplegic shoulder pain post stroke increased yearly, attacking mainly males 50-69 years of age. Of 106 patients, there were 60 cases （56.6%） of adhesive capsulitis, 19 （17.9%） of shoulder subluxation, 14 （13.2%） of complex regional pain syndrome, and 13 （12.6%） of central pain. The main symptoms were shoulder pain （100%）, limit of shoulder mobility （98.1%）, and adhesion of the scapula （56.6%）. MRI of the shoulder showed tendon and ligament lesions （57.1%） and rotator cuff tear （38.1%）. 53.8% of central pain was related to the thalamus, in addition to the basal ganglia, brain stem, and cerebellopontine angle. Shoulder pain, upper limb motor function, and function independence were significantly improved after comprehensive rehabilitation. In par- ticular, electroacupuncture based on basic physical therapy exhibited efficacy on shoulder subluxa- tion and complex regional pain syndrome. Multiple linear regression results showed a negative re- lationship of efficacy of pain management with the attack period of shoulder pain, involvement of the posterior limb of the internal capsule, and duration between onset and rehabilitation treatment, but a positive correlation with pain-related education, pain regression period, and pain diagnosis.

Dry needling at myofascial trigger points mitigates chronic post-stroke shoulder spasticity

Post-stroke spasticity is associated with restriction in the range of motion of the shoulder.Reducing muscular dystrophy may help relieve muscular dysfunction in patients with post-stroke shoulder spasticity.Dry needle therapy is a method of needling the trigger points using a syringe needle without the use of a drug.Dry needle therapy is commonly used for pain at the shoulder,neck,waist,and back.In this case study,a 62-year-old male patient affected with cerebral hemorrhage of the right frontal lobe had received rehabilitative treatment for 12 years.However,he still experienced shoulder spasticity.The patient received daily dry needling at the trigger points of infraspinatus,teres minor,posterior deltoid,and pectoralis major on 9 days.After the first and ninth treatment,the Modified Ashworth Scale and the passive range of motion of the shoulder was used to assess the effect of the treatment.The spasticity and range of motion of the shoulder showed obvious improvement.These results indicate that dry needling at the myofascial trigger points can effectively treat chronic poststroke shoulder spasticity.

Sensory changes, C-and A-fiber function, and shoulder-hand syndrome in hemiplegic patients after stroke

BACKGROUND： Clinical diagnosis of various neurological disorders involving the sensory nerves depends primarily on subjective description, which cannot be quantitatively evaluated, and is also less reproducible and specific. Quantitative sensory testing methods can overcome these shortcomings and is currently used to identify the function of the C- and A-fibers. OBJECTIVE： To apply the quantitative sensory testing method for analyzing changes in temperature sensation, cryalgesia, thermalgesia, and vibration sense on the skin surface of hemiplegic patients with post-stroke shoulder-hand syndrome, and to analyze the relationship between these changes and shoulder-hand syndrome. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING： A non-randomized, concurrent, control study was performed at the Clinic and Inpatient Department of the Third Xiangya Hospital, Central South University, between June 2000 and April 2001. PARTICIPANTS： Thirty post-stroke, hemiplegic patients were divided into shoulder-hand syndrome and control groups, according to whether patients exhibited shoulder-hand syndrome, with 15 patients in each group. METHODS： A TSA2001 quantitative sensory testing device （Medoc, Israel） was used for quantitative sensory testing. All sensory testing employed limits, testing temperature sense on the palm thenar eminence and vibration sense on the thumb metacarpal. Cold threshold was ≤ 28 ℃, warmth threshold was ≥ 36 ℃, cold-evoked pain threshold was ≤ 5 ℃, heat-evoked pain threshold was ≥ 51 ℃, vibration threshold was ≥ 5 μm/s; if a patient met one of these items, he/she was considered to be hypoanesthesia. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES： Cold, warm, cold-evoked pain, heat-evoked pain and vibration threshold changes on skin from the paralyzed upper extremity was measured in the shoulder-hand syndrome and control groups. RESULTS： Incidence of sensory disability in the shoulder-hand syndrome group increased more significantly than in the control group （P 〈 0.05）, with the primary manifestations being decreased cold threshold （P 〈 0.05） and increased warmth threshold （P 〈 0.05）. The value differences between cold and cold-evoked pain thresholds, as well as between warmth and heat-evoked pain thresholds, decreased significantly in the shoulder-hand syndrome group （P 〈 0.05）. There were no significant differences between the two groups in cold-evoked pain, heat-evoked pain, or vibration thresholds. CONCLUSION： The primary manifestations of sensory impairment in hemiplegic patients with post-stroke shoulder-hand syndrome were displayed as thermohypesthesia and hyperalgesia. Functional impairments of nerve fibers that control pain and temperature sense may play an important role in the pathogenesis of post-stroke shoulder-hand syndrome.

The Recovery of Complicated Upper Limbs Movement Functions of Poststroke Patients

In chronic stage of stroke, it is necessary to pay attention to the complex spatial movements training along with the traditional restoration of balance, strength of particular muscles, and paretic limb joints mobility. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of robotic therapy in the recovery of upper limb function in the chronic stage of stroke. The study involved 52 patients with ischemic stroke in the middle cerebral artery. The patients were divided randomly into 2 groups. All patients （5 days/wk × 3 wk） got gymnastics by the standard technique, massage, laser, and pulsed currents therapy. Main group patients （n = 36） extra received complex spatial movements, speed, fluidity, precision and agility training by the robotic electromechanical device Multi Joint System （MJS） （40 minutes, 5 days/wk × 3 wk）. Analysis of the results of the study showed a statistically significant difference in improving ROM of the elbow and shoulder joints, speed and accuracy of movement in the main group compared with the control. Hardware recovery of complex spatial upper limb movements in the chronic stage of stroke increases the functionality and independence of the patient＇s domestic skills.

Timeliness of the analgesic effect of superficial needling on shoulder-hand syndrome after stroke

Objective To observe the correlation between analgesic effect and duration of analgesic effect of superficial needling for shoulder pain of shoulderhand syndrome（SHS） after stroke, so as to screen the best time period of analgesia. Methods A total of 120 patients with SHS after stroke（stage I） were recruited and superficial needling therapy was applied. Two obvious tenderness points on the affected shoulder of patients were found out. The site 80–100 mm down each tenderness point was selected for superficial needling. Bimanual needling technique was applied after inserting needles. The surrounding of tenderness points was pinched and grasped by left hand above the needling, and the technique of green dragon swaying tail was applied by right hand. The needles at each acupoint were manipulated for3 min and retained for 30 min. The analgesic effect was evaluated dynamically by visual analogue scale（VAS） in 120 patients before treatment, immediately after treatment, 30 min after treatment, 1 h after treatment and 24 h after treatment. The analgesic effects at different time were statistically analyzed by generalized estimating equation. Results The mean values of VAS were 7.483, 3.950, 4.767, 5.917 and 7.217, respectively, before treatment, immediately after treatment, 30 min after treatment, 1 h after treatment and 24 h after treatment. The difference of analgesic effect at different time was statistically significant（P〈0.01）; the difference of analgesic effect of superficial needling in treatment of SHS after stroke was significant between immediately after treatment and 30 min after treatment（both P〈0.05）, while there was no significant difference between 1 h after treatment and 24 h after treatment（both P〈0.05）. Conclusion Analgesic effect of superficial needling for shoulder pain of SHS after stroke was different at different time points and decreased over time; analgesic effect was the most significant immediately after treatment and the optimal duration of analgesic effect was from immediately to 30 min after superficial needling therapy.

Neural Modulation of Hemiparetic Shoulder Pain by Repetitive Ultrasound-Guided Suprascapularis Nerve Block

Background: Neural blockade is widely used in clinical practice to alleviate acute or chronic pain, including pain during rehabilitation. To date there is little controlled evidence to confirm the efficacy of nerve blocks in hemiparetic shoulder pain after stroke. Design: This study is a prospective, open label, cohort trial reporting result from a cohort of stroke patients affected by shoulder pain. Aim: As a cohort study report, in which it is often firstly reported the possibility of an association between an observed effect and a specific environmental based on detailed clinical evaluations and histories, we aim to firstly provide clues in identifying Suprascapularis Nerve blockade as further valuable approach for shoulder pain after stroke. Population: We studied a cohort of patients affected by hemiparetic shoulder pain after Stroke. Methods: Our protocol foresees nerve blocks to be performed each 3 out of 4 days (treatment lasting 30 days) in conjunction with a rehabilitation program with the first aim to provide the window of opportunity to proceed with effective rehabilitation. 47 potential study subjects fulfilled the study criteria and were enrolled. Twenty-four subjects were randomised to the study Group to receive SSNB for the pain of their hemiparetic shoulder while 23 subjects randomized to the control Group whose member did not receive SSNB. They received serial blocks each 3 out of 4 days during rehabilitation.Results: Both treatment reported a reduction in the intensity of their shoulder pain, according to data collected from day 1 through day 42 (6 weeks). Study Group patients, receiving SSNBs, reported significant improvement from entry through the whole follow-up period. The efficiency data were higher for SSNB Group after 2 weeks and again for SSNb group at the end of treatment. Conclusion: Excellent pain relief was achieved in SSNB without clinically relevant complications, these patients having a better improvement on pain during rehabilitation, than the control subjects. Great efficacy has been achieved by combining a nerve block and rehabilitation. About Clinical Rehabilitation Impact, we believe that Suprascapularis nerve blocks can help the stroke survivors maintain an ambulatory or outpatient treatment status, maintain participation in a physical therapy or rehabilitation program, decrease the need for analgesics and in some cases lead to a complete pain relief.

Usefulness of radial extracorporeal shock wave therapy for the spasticity of the subscapularis in patients with stroke： a pilot study

Background There are not many studies about treatment of shoulder spasticity. Although botulinum toxin injection has been reported to be effective for shoulder spasticity, the effectiveness was judged by pain and limited motion change, but not the spasticity itself. Shoulder spasticity is considered to play an important role in hemiplegic frozen shoulder. However, the subscapularis muscle, unlike the pectoralis major muscle, is located deep beneath scapula, where conventional injection is difficult to perform. As extracorporeal shock wave therapy （ESWT） has been reported to be effective for spasticity relief, and we thought spasticity of subscapularis muscle located deep beneath the scapula would be a good candidate for ESWT treatment. This study was to evaluate the beneficial effects of radial ESWT （rESWT） on spastic subscapularis muscle in stroke patients. Methods This is an uncontrolled, prospective, unicenter, clinical pilot study. Stroke patients （n=57; mean age 55.4 years） with spastic shoulders were recruited between June 2011 and February 2012 at the University Rehabilitation Hospital. rESWT was administered to each patient every two or three days for two weeks （five total treatments）. Evaluation consisted of 11 measurements for each patient; at the start of each of the five treatments and once per week during the following six weeks. Spasticity was measured at external rotator muscles of the shoulder using the modified Ashworth scale （MAS）, and passive range of motion （ROM） of the shoulder in external rotation was recorded. Pain was measured using a visual analogue scale （VAS） during passive ROM of the shoulder in external rotation, and was additionally recorded for patients who preserved cognitive and communicative ability （Pain group）. Results Reduction in MAS and VAS and improvement of ROM during and after rESWT treatments were prominent compared to baseline. The reduction in MAS and VAS and improvement of ROM continued four weeks after the last treatment and the effects of the treatment decreased afterward. Conclusion rESWT will be able to provide stroke patients with an effective and safe procedure for the reduction of spasticity and pain as well as for the improvement of ROM of spastic shoulders.

Clinical Observation on the Post-stroke Shoulder Pain and Blood Viscosity Treated by Acupuncture-moxibustion Therapy

Objective： To reveal the therapeutic effect of acupuncmre-moxibustion therapy for the treatment of post-stroke shoulder pain. Methods： Ninety patients with post-stroke shoulder pain were randomized into three groups at ratio of 1：1：1, to receive acupuncture-moxibustion therapy （AM）, acupuncture-moxibustion plus Chinese herbal decoction （AMCH）, and Chinese herbal decoction （CH） respectively. Results： In the comparison of the therapeutic effects and blood viscosity, there was significant difference between the AM and CH group, as well as between the AMCH and CH group （P〈0.01）; the difference was not significant between the AM and AMCH group. Conclusion： Acupuncture-moxibustion is an effective therapy in the treatment of the post-stroke shoulder pain, and it can also reduce the blood viscosity in short-term.

Effect of Acupuncture plus Rehabilitation Training on Shoulder-hand Syndrome Due to Ischemic Stroke

Objective：To observe the clinical effect of acupuncture plus rehabilitation training in treating early-stage shoulder-hand syndrome due to ischemic stroke.Methods：Sixty patients were randomized into an observation group and a control group,30 in each.The observation group was intervened by acupuncture plus rehabilitation training,and the control group only received rehabilitation training.After 3 treatment courses,the scores of visual analogue scale （VAS） and Fugl-Meyer assessment scale （FMA）,and the clinical effect were compared between the two groups.Results：The two groups both obtained significant improvements in VAS and FMA scores after treatment （P〈0.05 or P〈0.01）.After treatment,it showed marked differences in comparing VAS and FMA scores between the observation group and the control group （P〈0.05）.The total effective rate was 86.7% in the observation group,versus 63.3% in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant （P〈0.05）.Conclusion：The result of acupuncture plus rehabilitation training in treating early-stage shoulder-hand syndrome due to ischemic stroke is superior to rehabilitation training alone.

Effectiveness of bee venom acupuncture in alleviating post-stroke shoulder pain: a systematic review and meta-analysis

BACKGROUND：Shoulder pain is a common complication of stroke.Bee venom acupuncture（BVA）is increasingly used in the treatment of post-stroke shoulder pain.OBJECTIVE：To summarize and evaluate evidence on the effectiveness of BVA in relieving shoulder pain after stroke.SEARCH STRATEGY：Nine databases,namely MEDLINE,EMBASE,the Cochrane Library,the China National Knowledge Infrastructure（CNKI）,the Japan Science and Technology Information Aggregator,Electronic（J-STAGE）,and four Korean medical databases,namely,the National Assembly Library,the Research Information Service System,the National Discovery for Science Leaders,and OASIS,were searched from their inception through August 2014 without language restrictions.INCLUSION CRITERIA：Randomized controlled trials（RCTs）were included if BVA was used at acupoints as the sole treatment,or as an adjunct to other treatments,for shoulder pain after stroke.DATA EXTRACTION AND ANALYSIS：Two review authors independently selected trials for inclusion,assessed methodological quality and extracted data.RESULTS：A total of 138 potentially relevant articles were identifi ed,4 of which were RCTs that met our inclusion criteria.The quality of studies included was generally low,and a preponderance of positive results was demonstrated.All four trials reported favorable effects of BVA on shoulder pain after stroke.Two RCTs assessing the effects of BVA on post-stroke shoulder pain,as opposed to saline injections,were included in the meta-analysis.Pain was signifi cantly lower for BVA than for saline injections（standardized mean difference on 10-cm visual analog scale：1.46 cm,95%CI=0.30–2.62,P=0.02,n=86）CONCLUSION：This review provided evidence suggesting that BVA is effective in relieving shoulder pain after stroke.However,further studies are needed to confi rm the role of BVA in alleviating post-stroke shoulder pain.Future studies should be conducted with large samples and rigorous study designs.

Efficacy observation of long-retaining scalp acupuncture plus interactive training for upper-extremity dysfunction after cerebral stroke

Objective:To observe the efficacy of long-retaining scalp acupuncture plus interactive training in improving upper-extremity dysfunction in cerebral stroke patients.Methods:Ninety-five patients with upper-extremity dysfunction after cerebral stroke were randomized into two groups,with 48 cases in the treatment group and 47 cases in the control group.Conventional internal medicine treatment was offered to both groups.In both groups,Anterior Oblique Line of Vertex-temporal(MS 6,the middle 2/5)and Posterior Oblique Line of Vertex-temporal(MS 7,the middle 2/5)were selected from the same side of the brain lesion(the side apposing to the hemiplegic limb)for scalp acupuncture treatment.In the treatment group,the scalp acupuncture needles were retained for 7 h,in combination with interactive training,while the needles were also retained for 7 h in the control group but without interactive training.Prior to treatment and at 2-week and 4-week treatment,the two groups were scored using the functional test for the hemiplegic upper extremity-Hong Kong(FTHUE-HK)and simplified Fugl-Meyer assessment-upper extremity(FMA-UE).Results:The total effective rate was 97.9%in the treatment group,higher than 74.5%in the control group(P<0.01).The FTHUE-HK score was higher at 2-week and 4-week treatment than before treatment in both groups,presenting statistically significant intra-group differences(all P<0.001);the FTHUE-HK score was higher at 4-week treatment than at 2-week treatment in both groups,presenting statistically significant intra-group differences(both P<0.001).At 2-week and 4-week treatment,the FTHUE-HK score was higher in the treatment group than in the control group,showing significant between-group differences(both P<0.05).During the whole treatment process,the treatment group had higher FTHUE-HK scores compared with the control group,but there was no statistical significance comparing the change of the score between the two groups at 2-week treatment(P>0.05),while the between-group difference in the change of the score was statistically significant at 4-week treatment(P<0.05).The FMA-UE score was higher at 2-week and 4-weeks treatment than before treatment in both groups,presenting statistically significant intra-group differences(all P<0.001);the FMA-UE score was higher at 4-week treatment than at 2-week treatment in both groups,presenting statistically significant intra-group differences(both P<0.001).At 2-week and 4-week treatment,the FMA-UE was higher in the treatment group than in the control group,and the between-group differences were statistically significant(both P<0.01).The FMA-UE score rose gradually with the increase of treatment session,and there was statistical significance comparing the change of the score between the two groups at 2-week and 4-week treatment,respectively(both P<0.05).Conclusion:Long-retaining scalp acupuncture plus interactive training results in more significant efficacy than long-retaining scalp acupuncture alone in improving the upper-limb dysfunction after cerebral stroke and the advantage becomes more notable after 2-week consecutive treatment.
