The clinical, laboratory, and radiological features, including histocompatibility typing, of 28 patients with juvenile psoriatic arthritis are reported. most common presentation was that psoriasis preceding or occurring simultaneously arthritis. course to start as an oligoarthritis progress, usually polyarthritis. No had uveitis. Overall, a good outcome (93% in functional class I II), though 8/28 (29%) did require disease modifying drugs over mean period 8.8 years follow up. clinical...
Force and pressure sensors are used at the body-device interface to monitor fit inform designers, researchers, clinicians in various biomedical applications. Commercial sensor manufacturers state that consistent actuation a rigid surface beneath is required ensure repeatable measurement results. However, subjected dynamically changing actuation, presence of substrates can cause pain affect distribution. A benchtop testing protocol was designed determine effects load area configuration (i.e.,...
BACKGROUND: Pressure sensing at the body-device interface can help assess quality of fit and function assistive devices during physical activities movement such as walking running. However, dynamic performance various pressure sensor configurations is not well established. OBJECTIVE(S): Two common commercially available thin-film sensors were tested to determine effects clinically relevant setup focusing on loading areas, interfacing elements (i.e. ‘puck’) calibration methods.
