Finite element modelling of a multi bone joint : The human wrist [PDF]
, 2012 Creating finite element models of various joints in the human body has been extensively researched using computational methods. Validated and verified computational models can give important information about the load transfer through the joint ...

Finite element model creation and stability considerations of complex biological articulation : the human wrist joint [PDF]
, 2010 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.

A three-dimensional finite element model of maximal grip loading in the human wrist [PDF]
, 2009 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.

Impairment of gradual muscle adjustment during wrist circumduction in Parkinson's disease [PDF]
, 2011 Purposeful movements are attained by gradually adjusted activity of opposite muscles, or synergists. This requires a motor system that adequately modulates initiation and inhibition of movement and selectively activates the appropriate muscles.

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 ...

Validation of grip strength as a measure of frailty in rheumatoid arthritis
Scientific Reports, 2022 Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients often exhibit finger/wrist joint symptoms and reduced grip strength. This study aimed to validate grip strength as a measure of frailty in RA patients. Subjects were 424 female RA patients (mean age ± standard deviation,
