Bio-Inspired Tendon-Driven Finger Design With Isomorphic Ligamentous Joint
IEEE Access, 2020 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 ...

IEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering, 2023 Human finger joints are conventionally simplified as rigid joints in robotic hand design and biomechanical hand modelling, due to their anatomic and morphologic complexity. However, our understanding of the effect of the finger joint configuration on the

Finger Kinematics during Human Hand Grip and Release
Biomimetics, 2023 A bionic robotic hand can perform many movements similar to a human hand. However, there is still a significant gap in manipulation between robot and human hands.

Simultaneous Double Interphalangeal Joints Dislocation in a Finger in a Teenager [PDF]
Malaysian Orthopaedic Journal, 2012 The English literature reports a mere handful of cases involving simultaneous dislocation of two joints in the same finger. To our knowledge, all cases reported to date have been in skeletally mature individuals. We report a case of simultaneous proximal

X-ray diagnosis of mutilating arthritis in patients with psoriatic arthritis Smirnov A.V.
Современная ревматология, 2014 The typical X-ray symptoms of psoriatic arthritis (PsA) in joints of hands and distal sections of feet (asymmetric lesions; isolated lesion of distal interphalangeal joints (DIJ) of hands with no changes in other small joints of hands; axial lesion of ...

Design, kinematic modeling and evaluation of a novel soft prosthetic hand with abduction joints
Medicine in Novel Technology and Devices, 2022 This paper presents a novel tendon-driven soft prosthetic hand with 5 fingers and 9 independent actuators. A special notched structure was used as the finger joint, which brings adequate compliance to grasping. The soft finger has two kinds of vertically

Analysis of Hand Intra-Finger Couplings During Flexion Movements in the Free Space
IEEE Access, 2023 The anatomy of the human hand is characterized by intrinsic coupling mechanisms at the level of the tendons and bone structure. The intra-finger constraints, in particular, represent coupled movements of the joints of the same finger.

Biomechanical Study of Extensor Tendon Lacerations Over the Finger Metacarpophalangeal Joints
Journal of Hand Surgery Global Online, 2019 Purpose: To assess the percentages of extensor tendon lacerations over the finger metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joints that may lead to an MCP joint extensor lag. Methods: We obtained 8t fresh-frozen cadaveric hand specimens.

Gold Finger: Metal Jewellery as a Disease Modifying Antirheumatic Therapy!
Case Reports in Medicine, 2009 Polyarticular psoriatic arthritis is a chronic, progressive and disabling auto-immune disease often affecting the small joints of the hands in a symmetrical fashion.

A TISSUE JOINT OF THE LITTLE FINGER. [PDF]
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1906 The accompanying illustration shows a hand-print of the middle, ring and little fingers of a young man. Between the metatarso-phalangeal joint and the distal end of the first phalanx of the little finger is what appears to be a joint. The bone is intact, but the tissue creases at this point when the man closes his hand.
