The Inlay Technique with Cortico-Cancellous Olecranon Bone Graft Used for Revision of Failed Distal Interphalangeal Joint Arthrodesis

Medicina, 2022
Background and Objectives: Although distal interphalangeal (DIP) arthrodesis is an effective surgical method for end-stage osteoarthritis of the phalangeal joint, the nonunion rate of DIP arthrodesis has been reported to range from 15% to 20%.

Vertical locking of the metacarpophalangeal joint of the little finger: A case report

Chinese Journal of Traumatology, 2017
Locking of the metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint is commonly caused by hyperextension of the thumb or moderate flexion of the index or middle finger. We report a rare case of vertical locking of the MCP joint of the little finger in a 16-year old female ...

Torque control of underactuated tendon-driven fingers [PDF]

Mechanical Sciences, 2011
Given an underactuated tendon-driven finger, the finger posture is underdetermined and can move freely ("flop") in a region of slack tendons. This work shows that such an underactuated finger can be operated in tendon force control (rather than position ...

Adenosine‐to‐inosine editing of miR‐200b‐3p is associated with the progression of high‐grade serous ovarian cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
A‐to‐I editing of miRNAs, particularly miR‐200b‐3p, contributes to HGSOC progression by enhancing cancer cell proliferation, migration and 3D growth. The edited form is linked to poorer patient survival and the identification of novel molecular targets.
