Force Sensing in Surgical Sutures

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The tension in a suture is an important factor in the process of wound healing. If there is too much tension in the suture, the blood flow is restricted and necrosis can occur. If the tension is too low, the incision opens up and cannot heal properly. The purpose of this paper is to describe the design and evaluation of the Stitch Force (SF) sensor and

Contribution of interaction force to the sense of hand ownership and the sense of hand agency

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
When performing willed actions, we have the unified and coherent experience of owning and controlling our body. Body ownership is believed to emerge from the integration of coherent multisensory signals, while agency is believed to emerge from the ...

Mechanical Force Sensing in Tissues [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Tissue size, shape, and organization reflect individual cell behaviors such as proliferation, shape change, and movement. Evidence suggests that mechanical signals operate in tandem with biochemical cues to properly coordinate cell behavior and pattern tissues.

Does dystonic muscle activity affect sense of effort in cervical dystonia? [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
BACKGROUND:Focal dystonia has been associated with deficient processing of sense of effort cues. However, corresponding studies are lacking in cervical dystonia (CD). We hypothesized that dystonic muscle activity would perturb neck force control based on
