Using kinematic reduction for studying grasping postures. An application to power and precision grasp of cylinders [PDF]
The kinematic analysis of human grasping is challenging because of the high number of degrees of freedom involved. The use of principal component and factorial analyses is proposed in the present study to reduce the hand kinematics dimensionality in the ...

We review the characteristic changes to the limb soft tissue and neurovascular abnormalities that have been described in the congenital limb birth defect, Radial Dysplasia. These include consistent changes in muscle anatomy or absence of specific muscles, persistent median arteries and absent radial arteries and consistent alterations in neural ...

The use of intra-articular aneshesia as a diagnostic tool in canine lameness [PDF]
Lameness in dogs may be difficult to localize because of mild pathologic changes or inconclusive clinical findings. Intra-articular anesthesia is proposed as a diagnostic method to localize the source of lameness.

Investigation of the association of the CRTM and CRTL1 genes with radiographically evident osteoarthritis in subjects from the Rotterdam study [PDF]
__Objective:__ To investigate whether radiographically evident osteoarthritis (ROA) in 55-65-year-old men and women is associated with specific alleles or genotypes of the cartilage matrix protein (CRTM) and cartilage link protein (CRTLl) genes ...

Conservative treatment of complete dislocation of the thumb metacarpal in a hypermobile patient
Simultaneous dislocation of the thumb carpometacarpal and metacarpophalangeal joints is an uncommon injury. Stability is the most important factor in the decision of treatment in these rare injuries.

Finite element model creation and stability considerations of complex biological articulation : the human wrist joint [PDF]
The finite element method has been used with considerable success to simulate the behaviour of various joints such as the hip, knee and shoulder. It has had less impact on more complicated joints such as the wrist and the ankle.
