Joint angles were calculated based on the static trial using the cardan sequence x, y, z and measured in the sagittal plane, where flexion/extension was defined as rotation around the segment coordinate system (SCS) x-axis, and the flexor side defined as palmar for shoulder, carpal and ...
However, an increase in morbidity of Kawasaki disease has been noticed, presenting as vasculitis of small and medium vessels that also results in fever, lymphadenopathy, cutaneous and palmar–plantar erythema, conjunctivitis, limb edema, and less frequently, coronary aneurysms [78]. The ocular ...
