简要总结
The brain contains the body representation necessary for normal functioning, including goal-directed movements and behaviors. Body representation involves integrated sensory input and ideas about one's body. Both executed and imagined movements depend on the representation of the body in the cortical area. Laterilization is one of the motor imagery methods that requires activation of proprioceptive, somatosensory and premotor regions and enables the determination of pain-induced cortical changes. Another method to determine pain-related somatosensory changes is the two-point discrimination test.
It is suggested that laterization and sensory acuity responses may change due to long-term pain and stiffness experienced in people with frozen shoulders. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate the laterization and sensory acuity abilities of patients with frozen shoulder.

结局指标
主要结局
Right-Left Discrimination
时间窗: Baseline
Right-Left Discrimination will be assessed with Recognise™ application. It tests the patients' ability to quickly and accurately recognise an image of a body area as either left or right ('Left/Right Discrimination'). The test will be repeated three times and average values will be recorded.
Acuity
时间窗: Baseline
Two point discrimination is the ability to discern that two nearby objects touching the skin are truly two distinct points, not one.In clinical settings, two-point discrimination is a widely used technique for assessing tactile perception. It relies on the ability and/or willingness of the patient to subjectively report what they are feeling and should be completed with the patient's eyes closed. Aesthesiometer is the instrument used to determine two point discrimination values.
