β¦ Synopsis
A man with shoulder pain and complaints of weakness had examination findings consistent with a suprascapular neuropathy with predominant involvement of the infraspinatus muscle. Electrodiagnostic studies confirmed an axon-loss suprascapular neuropathy with greater involvement of the infraspinatus muscle. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) demonstrated a large ganglion cyst originating from the glenohumeral joint. The clinical, electrodiagnostic, and radiologic evaluation of suprascapular neuropathy is discussed.

Rotator cuff tear and glenohumeral instability are closely related. Any tear may disturb muscle force generation due to pain inhibition. In addition, a full-thickness tear may foster instability by removing a structural element constraining the joint. It was hypothesized that the loss of both dynami
## Background: For understanding the relationship between skeletal muscle architecture and muscle function in vivo, the development of accurate geometric models relating muscle length to joint angles is crucial. therefore, a geometric model of the calf of mammals was developed to predict the length
