Prevalence of Unknown and Known Diabetes in Patients With Frozen Shoulder

The purpose of the study is to investigate how high the prevalence of diabetes (known and unknown) is among patients with a frozen shoulder. Our hypothesis is that it is around 30-40 %.

Another purpose is to investigate whether patients with diabetes have a worse and more painful frozen shoulder than patients without diabetes, and whether the diabetes have an influence on the prognosis.
