The extended object-grasping network
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Experimental Brain Research"
DOI: 10.1007/s00221-017-5007-3
Abstract: Grasping is the most important skilled motor act of primates. It is based on a series of sensorimotor transformations through which the affordances of the objects to be grasped are transformed into appropriate hand movements.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00221-017-5114-1
Abstract: Past studies have revealed connections in directional programming between hands. The present study investigated whether there could also be interaction in programming proximal and distal components of a prehensile hand action. In Experiment 1, the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00221-018-5171-0
Abstract: Direct and indirect corticospinal pathways to finger muscles may play a different role in control of the upper extremity. We used transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and coherence analysis to characterize the corticospinal drive to the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00221-021-06246-x
Abstract: We tested the hypothesis that the inability to move a pen accurately in a graphic task is partly due to a decrease of afferent somatosensory information resulting from overpressure on the tactile receptors of the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.clinbiomech.2018.06.001
Abstract: Background: Grip strength is frequently measured as a global indicator of motor function. In clinical populations, such as hemiparesis post‐stroke, grip strength is associated with upper‐extremity motor impairment, function, and ability to execute activities of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.diabres.2017.08.004
Abstract: AIMS We examined the association of grip strength with incident type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in healthy subjects initially aged 50 to 75years after a follow-up of 5.5years and 10.7years. METHODS This was a prospective,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ergon.2021.103083
Abstract: Abstract We propose a simple method to measure a driver's fatigue state by detecting the driver's grip force on the steering wheel while driving. We tested the grip force of 36 drivers on the steering… read more here.

Influence of aging and visual feedback on the stability of hand grip control in elderly adults
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Experimental Gerontology"
DOI: 10.1016/j.exger.2019.01.024
Abstract: Abstract Aging causes a gradual decrease in maximal grip strength and leads many elderly people to have to rely on visual feedback to compensate for poorer muscle strength in performing daily activities and preventing accidents.… read more here.

Investigating motor planning in children with DCD: Evidence from simple and complex grip-selection tasks.
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Human movement science"
DOI: 10.1016/j.humov.2018.07.006
Abstract: Several studies suggest that children with Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) may be able to plan simple movements as well as their peers, but experience increasing difficulties as the movements become complex. The present study aimed… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neulet.2017.05.024
Abstract: Manual actions and speech are connected: for example, grip execution can influence simultaneous vocalizations and vice versa. Our previous studies show that the consonant [k] is associated with the power grip and the consonant [t]… read more here.

Handling objects with very wet skin reduce variability during precision grip task
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Neuroscience Letters"
DOI: 10.1016/j.neulet.2019.03.039
Abstract: Several extrinsic factors affect precision grip task variability. Presence of moisture in glabrous skin can regulate the impact of extrinsic factors. Consequently, wetness may influence the precision grip task variability per se by regulating its… read more here.
