We have conducted Y-G Test and Mecholyl Test on 60 cases of shoulder-hand syndrome and 66 cases of whiplash injury, taken their electrocardiograms, compared the findings of these two groups and obtained the following results. (1) Although no deviation in personality could be noted with either of these two groups, prognosis was unfavorable in general with the former. (2) With Mecholyl Test, not even 1 case of P Type could be detected with the former group. (3) With electrocardiograms, we selected the vertical position, which is seen in persons with asthenia-type body structure, and found 12 cases evenly spread in the two groups, or 5 cases in the former and 7 cases in the later. We also discovered 1 case of myocardial infarction who complained of stiff shoulders and benumbed feeling of the hands. We compared the shoulder-hand syndrome characterized by spontaneous subjective complaints and the whiplash injury caused by exogenic cause, because we surmised we could detect a difference either psychogenetically or somatically even though their symptoms were similar, but we could not find anything striking in their differential diagnosis. The former is a subjective complaint frequently encountered with disorders in the field of internal medicine, and we believe the fact that we could diagnose 1 case of myocardial infarction among them is worthy of notice in clinical practice.
