Neuromuscular Properties of the Human Wrist Flexors as a Function of the Wrist Joint Angle [PDF]
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2019The 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 ...

Tuberculosis of the Left Wrist Joint and Spine [PDF]
Cureus, 2019The incidence of wrist tuberculosis is rare. Clinical features and radiographs are not conclusive in the beginning, happen to delay the achievement of the diagnosis, and thus result in poor treatment.
