Multi-Scale Analysis of Regional Pathology in the Human Trapezium During Osteoarthritis Progression. [PDF]
Trapeziometacarpal (TMC) osteoarthritis (OA) is a prevalent condition that significantly impacts hand function and quality of life. In this study we sought to close gaps in knowledge related to the initiation and progression of TMC OA on the tissue scale

Functional Morphology of the Scaphoid in Extant African Apes, Humans and Fossil Hominins. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objectives The morphology of the hominoid scaphoid has played a key role in functional and evolutionary hypotheses related to the emergence of hominin bipedalism and tool use. However, the scaphoid's complex morphology is challenging to comparatively analyze via traditional 2D linear measurements.

First metacarpal extension-abduction osteotomy effect on joint remodeling and articular cartilage repair in thumb carpometacarpal osteoarthritis [PDF]
Background The first metacarpal osteotomy is a joint-preserving surgery for thumb carpometacarpal (CMC) osteoarthritis that improves pain and function. However, its effects on joint remodeling and articular cartilage repair under physiological conditions

Quantifying in vivo kinematics of the wrist during opposite dart-throwing motion: a 4D CT study [PDF]
Background The kinematics of the wrist have been widely studied in terms of flexion/extension, radial/ulnar deviation, and the dart-throwing motion (DTM); however, the opposite dart-throwing motion (oDTM)—despite its functional importance in daily ...

Mid-Term Results of Surgical Treatment for Rhizarthrosis Using Interposition and Suspension-Interposition Arthroplasty [PDF]
Background. Rhizarthrosis is most commonly observed in individuals whose work and activities involve heavy use of the wrist. Conservative treatment methods are effective in the early stages of the disease, but in advanced stages, surgical intervention ...

Finite element model creation and stability considerations of complex biological articulation : the human wrist joint [PDF]
The finite element method has been used with considerable success to simulate the behaviour of various joints such as the hip, knee and shoulder. It has had less impact on more complicated joints such as the wrist and the ankle.

Osteoid-osteoma of trapezium bone in a child (clinical case)
BACKGROUND: Osteoid osteoma is a benign neoplasm of bones with a diameter of up to 1.5 cm. It is most common in children in the second decade of life and at the age of 20–30 years, predominantly in men.

A three-dimensional finite element model of maximal grip loading in the human wrist [PDF]
The aim of this work was to create an anatomically accurate three-dimensional finite element model of the wrist, applying subject-specific loading and quantifying the internal load transfer through the joint during maximal grip.
