Thumb carpometacarpal joint immobilization orthosis
Background: A new design of thumb carpometacarpal joint immobilization orthosis for positioning and improving hand function. This orthosis stabilizes the thumb in the desired position when thenar muscles are weakened, first carpometacarpal joint pain ...

A portable, sensorized, and controlled dexterous thumb‐enhanced glove helps stroke survivors swipe phones, twist caps, and perform other tasks. It is based on a powerful continuously, segmented origami dual chamber actuator to achieve active thumb CMC and MCP joint assistance and passively extend the IP joint.

A skin‐conformal wearable device based on laser‐induced graphene is developed for continuous strain measurement across the circumference of the forearm for gesture recognition and hand‐tracking applications. Post material optimization, the strain sensor array is integrated with a wearable wireless readout circuit for real‐time control of a robotic arm,

Endoscopic Resection of Carpometacarpal Boss and Synovectomy of the Second Carpometacarpal Joint [PDF]
Abstract Carpometacarpal boss is a symptomatic bony prominence on the dorsal surface of the wrist at the base of the second and/or third metacarpal. Wedge excision of the carpometacarpal boss is indicated if conservative treatment fails to relieve the symptoms. Complications of wedge resection

A Compact Multijoint Finger Motion Sensing Module for Flexible Exoskeleton Applications
Addressing the motion estimation gap in underactuated wearable electronics, a highly integrated sensor alongside a customized readout circuit is proposed. Featuring a screen‐printed layout and optimized horseshoe geometry, this design establishes an optimal feedback mechanism for flexible hand exoskeletons while eliminating wiring clutter.

Evolutionary morphology of the haplorhine hamate
Abstract Primates adopt a variety of hand postures during an impressive diversity of locomotor and manipulative behaviors. Morphological research has found that elements of the hand skeleton, such as the hamate, hold key information for inferring hand use and locomotor kinematics in extinct species.

Objective Regular imaging by conventional radiography to assess for joint damage is a cornerstone in the management of rheumatoid arthritis. Scoring systems to quantify such damage, such as the widely used Sharp/van der Heijde (SvdH) score, are limited by the requirement of time and experienced staff as well as intra‐ and interrater variability.
