Neuromuscular Properties of the Human Wrist Flexors as a Function of the Wrist Joint Angle. [PDF]
The joint angle dependence of voluntary activation and twitch properties has been investigated for several human skeletal muscles. However, although they play a key role for hand function and possess a unique neural control compared to muscles ...

Changes in wrist joint contact area following radial shortening osteotomy for Kienböck's disease. [PDF]
We hypothesized that the contact area of the articular surface of the wrist joint could be evaluated using a custom-designed analytical program. The aim of the study was to compare the articular contact area of the wrist joint before and after radial ...

The instability of wrist joint and total wrist replacement. [PDF]
Total wrist arthroplasty are not used as widely as total knee and hip replacement. The functional hands are requiring surgeons to design a durable and functional satisfying prosthesis. This article will list the main reasons that cause the failure of the prosthesis.
