Patient concerns A 79-year-old man with a 4-year history of impairment of left-hand function and pain due to DD with weakness and flexion deformities of middle and ring fingers. He has not been treated before for this impairment. Diagnosis The diagnosis of DD was based on clinical features and ultrasound images. Interventions Four weekly sessions of radial ESWT with 1400 impulses 3 bar each, 12 Hz. Outcomes The limitations in activities of daily living were analyzed through the Disabilities of Arm Shoulder and Hand Questionnaire (DASH) and Michigan Hand Outcome Questionnaire (MHQ) at baseline, after four sessions of radial ESWT and at 4-months follow-up. Data analysis showed a significant reduction of hand deformities and an improvement of daily living performance. The effects continued at the 4-months follow-up. Conclusion This case report demonstrates the feasibility of radial ESWT. Radial ESWT sessions may be carried out by a physiotherapist in outpatient clinics with cost reduction compared with surgical treatment and focused ESWT. Radial ESWT is a non-invasive, well tolerated therapy, so it should be considered in the DD treatment.Like research in general internal medicine, family medicine research can play an important role in improving medical knowledge. We aimed to compare articles published in family medicine journals with articles published in general internal medicine journals. In this bibliometric study, we retrieved 658 randomly selected quantitative articles published in 2016 in 18 high impact factor journals of family medicine and general internal medicine. We extracted the following data author (gender, number of publications, and place of residenc
