Tuberculosis of the Left Wrist Joint and Spine. [PDF]
Cureus, 2019 The 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.

A wearable fiber-optic sensor for monitoring human elbow and wrist joint motion
Adv. Robotics, 2020 This article describes a wearable sensor for monitoring the motion of human elbow and wrist joints. The sensor converts the joint motion angle into a displacement, which is monitored using a fiber-optic sensor based on reflective light intensity ...

Do wrist orthoses cause compensatory elbow and shoulder movements when performing drinking and hammering tasks? [PDF]
Irish Journal of Occupational Therapy, 2017 Purpose - Wrist orthoses are used by occupational therapists to decrease pain, support weak muscles and protect tissues during healing. However, use of wrist orthoses has been observed to produce compensatory movements in other upper extremity joints ...

The Energy Benefits of the Pantograph Wing Mechanism in Flapping Flight: Case Study of a Gull [PDF]
, 2015 Bird wings generally contain a 4-bar pantograph mechanism in the forearm that enables the wrist joint to be actuated from the elbow joint thus reducing the number of wing muscles and hence reducing the wing inertia and inertial drag.
