Efficacy of ultrasound-guided capsular hydrodilatation for refractory post-trauma finger joint stiffness in adult patients [PDF]
Background Finger joint stiffness is a common post-treatment complication in patients with upper limb fractures that lowers their quality of life. Physiotherapy is the standard of care for functional restoration in patients with finger joint stiffness ...

Bio-Inspired Tendon-Driven Finger Design With Isomorphic Ligamentous Joint
This paper suggests a novel type of bio-inspired finger design in that the joints that compose the finger mimic the features of human finger joints. They have isomorphic structures but different movements, further, there is no friction between bones in ...
