BackgroundA glenohumeral (GH) joint disease, such as adhesive capsulitis, causes the shoulder capsule's fibrosis and adhesion to restrict mobility. Collagen and growth factors can be produced by platelet-rich plasma (PRP), which promotes stem cells and, as a result, improves the healing process. This study was done to determine the role of PRP injection in the treatment of adhesive capsulitis in terms of improvement in pain.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
