Introduction: De Quervain's tenosynovitis is a disease with pain in the styloid process area due to chronic inflammation of tendons covering abductor pollicis longus and extensor brevis muscles at level distal radius. This study aims describe treatment de prolotherapy.
 Case presentation: A woman, 49 years old, working as cleaning service, came hospital complaints her right thumb wrist. Pa...

Restoring the function of a missing hand is still grand challenge for bioengineers. We witnessed significant recent advances in development myoelectric prostheses and their controllers. Conversely, wrist joint generally overlooked prosthetics, despite playing fundamental role orienting space. Indeed, it may account several degrees freedom reducing compensatory movements. acknowledge that an act...

This review describes a series of experiments in which sarcomere length was measured in human wrist muscles to understand their design. Sarcomere length measurements were combined with studies on cadaveric extremities to generate biomechanical models of human wrist function and to provide insights into the mechanism by which wrist strength balance is achieved. Intraoperative measurements of the...

The present study investigated the effects of grip on changes in the median nerve cross-sectional area (MNCSA) and median nerve diameter in the radial-ulnar direction (D1) and dorsal-palmar direction (D2) at three wrist angles. Twenty-nine healthy participants (19 men [mean age, 24.2 ± 1.6 years]; 10 women [mean age, 24.0 ± 1.6 years]) were recruited. The median nerve was examined at the proxim...

background:  new discoveries about the pathophysiology changed the concept that all forms of osteoarthritis are alike; this lead to the delineation of different phenotypes such as age, trauma or obese related forms. we aim to compare soluble mediator profiles in primary knee and posttraumatic wrist osteoarthritis. based on the general faster progression rate of wrist osteoarthritis, we hypothes...
