Grade II is a partial tear to the capsuloligamentous complex associated with weight bearing pain, ecchymoses and joint motion restriction. Grade III is a complete tear of the capsuloligamentous complex, avulsion of the plantar plate from the metatarsal neck, proximal phalanx impaction into the ...
Firstly, our pull-down experiments revealed that the introduction of BS can reduce hybridization-independent off-target (i.e. protein-binding) interactions. Owing to a smaller single-stranded region, BRO has a smaller protein-binding capability (Figs. 5 and 7). Thus, one of the major sources...
The motions generate a yaw moment at touch-down and may contribute to suppressing the yaw rotation of the whole body. The use of compliant legs for traversing uneven ground has also been used on multi-legged robots [20]. Traditional prosthetic feet have also tended to be based on a stiff ...
