Abstract:
The study assessed whether a relationship existed between the lengths of the phalanges of the fingers of the hand. The centres of rotation of the joints in each finger were determined by dissection of cadaveric hands. Using these data, the distances between the joint centres was determined on anteroposterior hand X-rays taken for clinical purposes. The study has shown that, for all the fingers, there is a ratio of1 for the distance between the metacarpophalangeal and proximal interphalangeal joint and the distance between the proximal interphalangeal joint and the finger tip.

Skeletochronology is a widely used method for age determination in amphibians. This method is based mainly on the histological examination of the finger bones. However, the lengths of utilized severed fingers have not been specified in previous studies. The objective of this study was to analyse the structure of line arrested growth (LAGs) involving taking only the last two phalanges of a finger, and using the entire finger of Alpine newts (Mesotriton alpestris).

Abstract:
One of the first pictures made with X-rays by Wilhelm Roentgen, when he discovered them in 1895, was of the hand of a colleague of his, a Dr. von Koelliker. The bones of his hand and a ring he was wearing stand out clearly; the flesh appears as a faint halo around the bones. A glance at the photograph makes it obvious why the medical possibilities of X-rays were almost immediately recognized. X-rays were used first for diagnosis, and later for treatment of disease as well, but they were the first form of radiation shown also to cause disease. In the early years of radiology, radiologists used to hold the X-ray film in place close to the patient’s body, thus receiving intense exposures of their hands. There were unexpected difficulties in arranging for a celebratory dinner for the Society of Radiologists in Philadelphia on the twenty-fifth anniversary of the discovery of X-rays: so many of the members had lost fingers or hands that they found it too awkward to eat in public. The discovery of X-rays led in 1896 to the discovery of radioactivity by Henri Becquerel, who observed, almost by accident, that compounds of the metallic element uranium emitted a kind of radiation that like X-rays passed through the black paper photographic film was wrapped in and darkened the film. Marie and Pierre Curie, following up his work, found that the strongest sources of the radioactivity were impurities in the uranium compounds and were able to extract small quantities of other much more radioactive elements from them, including polonium and radium. Becquerel and the Curies were awarded the Nobel Prize in physics in 1903. At first, the energy given out steadily by radioactive substances could not be explained, and some scientists proposed that they might provide unlimited sources of energy. It was soon shown that radioactive substances, like any other fuel, are used up as energy is given out: the radioactive atoms are undergoing disintegration into other, different kinds of atoms. When an atom of uranium-238 emits alpha radiation, it changes at the same time into an atom of a rare element called thorium, also radioactive.

Bird characteristics: Body always covered with feathers; feet (toes and usually tarsometatarsus) covered with scales (thickened skin). Aquatic birds have webbed toes. No teeth; horny beak. Lightweight skeleton in flying birds (many hollow bones), with keel on sternum for attachment of flight muscles (pectoral muscles). No keel in large flightless birds (ostrich, emu, rhea). Completely bony ribs (no rib cartilage). Clavicles fused into single bone, the furculum (wishbone). Numerous neck vertebrae (number varies by species) provide great neck flexibility. Some of the middle thoracic vertebrae fused in some species (chicken); posterior thoracic, all lumbar, and all sacral vertebrae fused into synsacrum, which in turn is fused to the pelvis. Short, flexible tail terminates in stout bone (pygostyle) for support of highly mobile long tail feathers. Wing (arm) skeleton modified for flying (ostrich and penguins evolved from flying ancestors). Wrist joint automatically straightens when elbow joint is straightened; conversely, wrist joint automatically bends when elbow joint is bent. Individual hand and finger bones reduced in number and largely fused together for support of primaries (outer flight feathers). Three digits present; small third digit nonmovable. Short alular feathers attach to movable first digit. Secondaries (inner flight feathers) attach to rear edge of ulna. Three toes point forward and one points backward in most species (e.g., chicken, hawk, crow), or two toes forward and two back (e.g., woodpecker, parrot). Ostrich has two toes per foot. Toes terminate with claws. Male chicken has bony spur covered with horny sheath on tarsometatarsus.

Abstract:
Acute and chronic pain episodes are common experiences for many individuals living with sickle cell disease (SCD). The management of pain related to SCD is primary palliative and includes pharmacological, nonpharmacological, and preventive therapies (Ballas, 2002). This chapter focuses on issues relevant to the assessment and treatment of sickle cell pain in primarily pediatric populations, although some of the adult literature is reviewed, particularly as it relates to children and adolescents. SCD is a hereditary disorder. The disorder primarily affects people of Caribbean and African origin in addition to a small percentage of people of Indian, Mediterranean and Middle Eastern descent (National Association of Health Authorities and Trusts–NAHAT, 1991). SCD is also prevalent in Hispanic and Latino populations. Red blood cells containing sickle hemoglobin become rigid. These cells then become elongated and “sickled” in shape, which makes it very difficult for the sickle cells to move smoothly and flow through microcirculation (Morrison &amp; Vedro, 1989). Symptoms of SCD include chronic anemia, susceptibility to infection, and vaso-occlusive crises or vaso-occlusive episodes (VOEs), resulting in severe pain that can last hours to weeks (Wang, George, &amp; Wilimas, 1988). This vaso-occlusion is caused when sickle cells are unable to flow through arteries, capillaries, arterioles, and other blood vessels and as a result obstruct blood flow. This sickling can occur anywhere in the body, including fingers, arms, ribs, abdomen, and organs such as the brain and eyes (Morrison &amp; Vedro, 1989), but it most commonly occurs in the spleen, bones, and joints (Elander &amp; Midence, 1996). These restrictions in blood flow result in severe pain. In addition, other major clinical problems arise from SCD, including stroke, acute chest syndrome, aseptic necrosis of the hips and shoulders, infections, anemia, leg ulcers, and priapism (Serjeant, 1992). Acute chest syndrome is a significant concern and is the leading cause of mortality in both children and adults with SCD (Platt et al., 1994). Stroke tends to be the most disabling condition and is also a significant cause of death. Stroke in SCD patients accounts for approximately 6% of deaths related to sickle cell disease (Platt et al., 1994).

Abstract:
Forces generated by the muscles actuating the fingers are transmitted through a complex network of tendons. Current models of the hand either ignore or simplify the structure of these networks [1]. It has been shown that the deformable nature of these tendinous networks results in a nonlinear transformation of muscle forces [2]. Our long-term objective is to understand how the topology of this network affects the control of finger force and motion. To achieve this, we will use a machine learning approach to evolve models of this network that can best replicate experimental results [3]. Here we

Abstract:
Over 80% of activities of daily living involve grasping or seizing objects with the hand [1]. The carpometacarpal (CMC) joints of the hand and wrist, the five joints that articulate the distal row of carpal bones and the proximal bases of the five metacarpal bones, are particularly important for prehensile tasks involving the opposition of the ring and little fingers with the thumb, such as during precision grasping. In addition, impairment of the CMC joints can weaken grip strength [2].

Abstract:
Ergonomic-conscious design of hand-held information appliances greatly strengthens their competitiveness. However, current ergonomic assessments are carried out in the form of “real” user-tests which need many human subjects and expensive physical mockups, and only subjective evaluations are obtained. To solve these problems, in this paper, the Digital Hand where the 3D bone structure, surface skin geometry of the human hand are imitated was developed for quantitatively estimating the ease of single-fingered operations of hand-held appliances. The ease is estimated based on the reachability of

Abstract:
This paper describes a systematic method for the kinematic synthesis of one degree-of-freedom robotic fingers that incorporate multi-loop kinematic structures with second order task specifications, such that the fingers do not violate normal direction and curvature constraints imposed by contact with objects. We show how to use these contact and curvature effects to formulate the synthesis equations for the design of a planar index finger, based on anthropomorphic back-bone chain and anthropomorphic task. The prototype of the finger is described in the end of the paper. It is important to note

Abstract:
Mechanical stimuli are crucial for the growth, development, and maintenance of articular cartilage and bone. This paper investigates a novel mechanical loading device with position specific loading capability for stimulating articular cartilage and bone. It proposes a design of an under-actuated multi-fingered robotic hand for achieving such a joint loading. The robotic hand has 8-degrees of freedom and is operated by a single motor. Four fingers, each having two phalanges were designed. The fingers are connected through shafts and are operated using a slider crank mechanism. The CAD model was

Abstract:
Uniaxial human skin viscoelasticity has been demonstrated in vitro (Pan et al., 1998). Although some have experimentally measured in vivo finger pad viscoleasticity under normal compression (e.g. Jindirch et al., 2003), none have measured its response to shear load. Knowledge of the viscoelastic properties of the finger pad is important for understanding dynamic finger force coordination during manipulation. While finite element models (FEM) of the finger pad have been developed for dynamic loading studies (e.g. Wu et al., 2002; 2003), these models have not been validated using experimental da

3D printing was used to produce custom and anatomically-faithful prototype prosthesis device as a missing hand replacement. 3D-printed bones (ABS) were actuated electromagnetically activated copper wire coils (resulting in field of about 9 mT) via nylon lines being attached to one side of the metacarpal bones of the hand, one for each finger, and the other attached to the distal phalanges providing sufficient force for finger bending and functioning. For emotional factors, the device was wrapped in an exact replica of the amputee’s hand anatomy obtained by mirror-imaging the other existing han
