A group of 113 @entity1 and 73 @entity1 with @entity17126 of the shoulder have been studied in detail. Electromyography showed 4 @entity1 with @entity11438 who had been referred for the shoulder study but were excluded on this basis. Nerve conduction studies showed little difference between the periarthritic group and a control group, apart from some reduction in amplitude and potential, and in @entity1 a suggestion of an increased latency. Duration of the action potential was equal. 6 @entity1 had an undoubtedly long latency compatible with @entity2850 . Degenerative changes were found in the @entity2720 in 6-9%. Degenerative changes were found at the @entity2720 in 31% of the @entity1 and 44% of the @entity1 . Calcification was found around 11 of the shoulder joints. There was frequently a previous history of ' @entity627 ' before the episode of @entity17126 . In one-third of the @entity1 'nonspecific @entity627 ' had occurred. @entity158 and a previous episode of @entity158 had occurred more often in the @entity1 . Arthrography was performed in 7 @entity1 and there was a reduction in volume of material that could be injected in only one @entity1 . There was obliteration of the axillary fold in that @entity1 , and a torn capsule in a @entity1 who had previously been manipulated. Lateral cervical spine x-rays were compared with films from an epidemiological survey. The disc space/vertebral body height ratio was taken, overcoming the magnification effects shown by technical alterations in the method of taking films. Good intra- and interobserver correlation was found for this ratio, but not for the width of the canal. There was no difference in the disc/body ratio between the periarthritic and control group in the upper cervical region. In the @entity23633 intervertebral discs there was evidence of more @entity1797 in the periarthritic group. The differences from the control group were not great because of the high incidence of disc space @entity543 and @entity28489 after the age of 45 years in the general population.
