Joint Hyperlaxity and its Long-Term Effects on Joints
Journal of the Royal Society of Health, 1993The range of movement at a joint varies between individuals. Reasons for this include inherited collagen structure in the joint capsule and ligaments, inherited shape of the bony articulating surfaces and neuromuscular tone which may be acquired and is modified by training.

Joint mobilization is a common technique used to restore joint motion; however, documentation of its effectiveness is lacking. The purpose of this study was to determine if joint mobilization is effective in counteracting joint stiffness and decreased active range of motion of the metacarpal-phalangeal joint.

A joint effect of bacteria and genetics
Science, 2016Autoimmunity Although rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease, scientists have long suspected that bacterial infections (and in particular, periodontal infections) may play a role in its pathogenesis. Konig et al. now demonstrate that a particular periodontal pathogen called Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans ( Aa ) induces changes in ...

Effects of spinal joint on quadrupedal bounding
2017 14th International Conference on Ubiquitous Robots and Ambient Intelligence (URAI), 2017This paper studies the effects of a spinal joint on quadrupedal running with a bounding gait. Both models have the actuated hips and legs with masses and inertias. In this work, we used the numerical return map to find periodic locomotion of both models then, by comparing the performance of an articulated-body quadruped to a rigid-body one, we observed

Effect of Arthroscopic Procedures on the Acromioclavicular Joint
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 2003The objective of the current study was to determine the effect of arthroscopic acromioplasty, and combined acromioplasty and distal clavicle resection on joint kinematics and in situ forces in response to an anterior, posterior, and superior load of 70 N.

Neuromuscular Effects of Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction
International Journal of Neuroscience, 1993Neurologically intact male and female TMJ dysfunction patients with or without cervical spine involvement were examined using standard clinical neurologic testing for balance and coordination. Seventy percent of the TMJ patients without cervical involvement exhibited positive signs for balance, coordination, and/or ataxia found in response to having ...

The effect of joint elasticity on bilateral teleoperation
2007 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems, 2007In applications such as space and surgical robotics, the use of thin, lightweight manipulators and cable-driven end- effectors results in flexibility of the manipulator. In bilateral teleoperation, however, any flexibility in a link or joint of the robot reduces the transparency of teleoperation.

Coupling effects in adhesive bonded joints
Composite Structures, 2002Abstract This paper presents the use of a newly developed unified approach for the analysis and design of adhesive bonded joints that takes into account the effects of asymmetric laminated adherends to study the influence of coupling effects in the adherends of adhesive bonded joints.

The effects of arthroscopic acromioplasty on the acromioclavicular joint
Journal of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery, 1998Thirty patients with 31 shoulders underwent clinical and radiologic evaluation 5 to 6 years after arthroscopic acromioplasty. The mean age was 51 years. The acromioclavicular (AC) joint was assessed for tenderness on palpation and pain on horizontal adduction of the shoulder.
