To what degree passive ROM can be trusted as a reliable outcome measure was examined as part of an on-going randomized controlled trial for patients with shoulder capsulitis.
Limits of agreement ± 1.96 SD were 3.2 ± 9.4 degrees for passive flexion and 0.9 ± 8.2 degrees for active extension.
Serial casting will be provided within the three weeks following BoNT-A injections to children with a component of fixed equinus contracture (less than neutral/0 degrees of passive range of ankle dorsiflexion with the knee extended) [ 7].
Physical examination: ◦ positive Yocum test; ◦ painful arc; ◦ diffuse pain at palpation of the greater tuberosity; ◦ disturbed scapulohumeral rhythm; ◦ no signs of pathologies or symptoms on the controlateral shoulder; ◦ capable of 90 degrees of passive abduction and 90 degrees of external rotation.

The robustness of this fuel, coupled with the high heat capacity of graphite, has led to the development of modular HTGRs with a high degree of passive safety.
This tracer was used previously [34] to estimate the degree of passive uptake and retention effects [40] on the total AnxA5 uptake, though differences in local patterns of uptake of the two tracers were not specifically examined.
