INTRODUCTION The purpose of this paper was to evaluate the results on shoulder function following isolated proximal subscapularis release in children with Erb's palsy. METHODS A retrospective study was conducted on 64 consecutive children with Erb's palsy who underwent a Carlioz proximal subscapularis release between 2001 and 2012. Fifty children with complete records and a minimum follow-up ...

In this paper we investigate the controllability of an air hockey puck subject to impulsive inputs , which is a special case of the more general problem of impulsive manipulation of rigid objects. We rst formulate the control problem on the tangent bundle of the three dimensional con-guration manifold of the system and characterize the set of velocities reachable with arbitrary impulsive inputs...

abstract   background: traumatic or congenital events can result in injury and functional deficiency in the hand and we need to reconstruct the fingers at times. studies are available in the pediatric and adult age groups to assess the length of the thumb. but to the best our knowledge no measurement of the relative clinical length of all fingers has been reported in the literature. we performe...

bilateral finger and palm prints of 500 males and 500 females of the caucasian origin in south iran have been collected and analyzed for both qualitative and quantitative dermatoglyhic features. results show that most of the qualitative features on bilateral and bisexual differences are not significant. however, quantitative features frequently showed significant differences both bilaterally an...

The "arkypallidal" neurons of the globus pallidus (external segment) emit feedback GABAergic projections to the striatum. In this issue of Neuron, Mallet et al. (2016) show that "arkypallidal" neurons provide a Stop signal, suppressing the development of Go-related striatal activity.
