METHODS: We have reviewed the data of 1205 frozen shoulder patients in China's Xinjiang region from 2018 to 2023. The collected information included patients' gender, occupation, place of origin, marital status, age, the season of disease onset, duration of illness, etiology, surgical history, hypertension, diabetes, respiratory diseases, knee joint disease, hyperlipidemia, cardiovascular diseases, cervical spondylosis, lumbar disc herniation, rheumatoid arthritis, hyperuricemia, sleep quality, smoking and alcohol consumption, and constipation. We have used multifactor logistic regression analysis to identify the risk factors for a frozen shoulder.
RESULTS: Single-factor logistic regression analysis showed that the number of females, patients with diabetes, knee joint disease, constipation, and patients with poor sleep quality in the observation group are higher than in the control group (Pā€‰<ā€‰0.05). There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in terms of occupation, place of origin, marital status, age, season of disease onset, duration of illness, etiology, surgical history, hypertension, respiratory diseases, hyperlipidemia, cardiovascular diseases, cervical spondylosis, lumbar disc herniation, rheumatoid arthritis, hyperuricemia, smoking, and alcohol consumption history (Pā€‰>ā€‰0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that the final model included four variables: gender, diabetes history, sleep, and constipation. Among them, the OR values of gender and diabetes history were more significant than 1, indicating that they were independent risk factors for frozen shoulder, while the OR values of sleep and constipation were less than 1, suggesting that they were negatively associated with the occurrence of frozen shoulder.
CONCLUSIONS: The results of this study suggest that gender and diabetes are independent risk factors for frozen shoulder. Additionally, poor sleep quality and constipation also can be correlated with the occurrence of a frozen shoulder.
