Summary

This study tested whether a special tissue graft called ActiveMatrix works better than the usual steroid injection for frozen shoulder. Fifty-six adults with frozen shoulder received either the graft or a steroid shot, and researchers tracked their pain and shoulder function for 6 months. The goal was to see if the graft could provide better pain relief and movement without the need for repeated treatments.
