Reaching higher: External scapula assistance can improve upper limb function in humans with irreversible scapula alata [PDF]
Background Scapular dyskinesis, i.e., the deviant mobility or function of the scapula, hampers upper limb function in daily life. A typical sign of scapular dyskinesis is a scapula alata—a protrusion of the shoulder blade during arm elevation. While some

The shoulder joint is composed of the scapula, clavicle, and the head of the humerus. The scapula is part of three joints: The acromioclavicular joint (acromion and clavicula), the glenohumeral joint (glenoid and proximal humerus), and the scapulothoracic joint (anterior scapula and posterior thorax) (Fig. 10.1) [1].

Fractures of the Scapula [PDF]
The scapula plays a critical role in the association between the upper extremity and the axial skeleton. Fractures of the scapula account for 0.4% to 1% of all fractures and have an annual incidence of approximately 10 per 100,000 inhabitants. Scapular fractures typically result from a high-energy blunt-force mechanism and are often associated with ...

Reliability of Scapula Clinical Assessment and Effectiveness of Scapular-Focused Exercises in a Non-Athletic Population with Shoulder Pain – a Literature Review [PDF]
Introduction: The scapula is recognised as a key element of the proper functioning in the shoulder complex. Scapular movement abnormalities have been defined as scapular dyskinesis. It is treated as a dysfunction that increases the risk of shoulder pain.

The Effects of a Selective Corrective Program on the Scapula and Shoulder Joint Posture in Girls with Rounded Shoulder [PDF]
The scapula influences shoulder performance. In fact, scapula posture has a direct relationship with scapula stability and muscular power. The purpose of this research was to determine the effect of a training program on rounded shoulder abnormality (RS)

Refining Shoulder Diagnostics: A Technical Note on Scapular Physical Examination. [PDF]
Abstract Normal scapulothoracic function relies on a delicate balance among several periscapular muscles and is essential for shoulder motion. Disturbance in this balance can lead to abnormal motion, which can impair shoulder function, leading to pain and discomfort.
