Upper extremity neuromotor dysfunction caused by local vibration
Неврология, нейропсихиатрия, психосоматика, 2015 Vibration disease (VD) (pneumatic hammer disease) is a leader among occupational diseases. The prolonged use of vibrating tools is a high occupational health risk.

Vasomotor oscillation in vibration-induced white finger.
Scandinavian Journal of Work, Environment & Health, 1986 Vasomotor oscillation at different ambient temperatures, with and without anesthesia of the finger nerves, was studied in six persons with vibration-induced white finger (VWF) and in 10 referents. The power spectral density (PSD) of the Fourier transform of the laser-Doppler flowmeter signal from the finger pad vessels was analyzed. In both groups, the

Clonidine in the treatment of vibration-induced white fingers.
Scandinavian Journal of Work, Environment & Health, 1982 The effect of clonidine, a centrally acting drug diminishing the sympathetic activity of peripheral nerves, was examined in a double-blind study of 60 forest workers with vibration-induced white fingers. Clonidine was administered in daily doses of 0.450 mg or 0.100 mg during 30 d. The results were evaluated from a self-administered questionnaire.

Analysis of Various Factors Affecting Vibration-induced White Finger.
INDUSTRIAL HEALTH, 1993 Forty-one stone quarriers were studied with regard to various factors affecting vibration-induced white finger (VWF), i. e., age, total operating time (TOT), body mass index (BMI), smoking, drinking, past history of diseases and sensitivity to cold in childhood. Subjects were asked about these factors by interview according to a questionnaire.

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.The tribological behavior of 100Cr6 steel spheres textured via Vickers microindentation is evaluated under lubricated sliding by varying both dimple size and density. Fine and dense textures significantly reduce friction across all lubrication regimes, while large dimples increase it.

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This study presents a reversible temperature sensor with high switching ratio, ∼103. The device is fabricated using PET‐ITO and carbon nanotube dispersions in alkane. Considering its application in cold chain logistics, a proof‐of‐concept with LED is showcased. Thus, a temperature drop below the threshold temperature (crystallization temperature of the
