The role of inflammatory markers in the differential diagnosis of stiff shoulder disease

Elevated NLR values are associated with more acute inflammatory responses typical of secondary stiff shoulder, while higher LMR and platelet levels are linked to chronic and fibrotic processes observed in frozen shoulder.
