Hypertension is a pathological condition in which the blood pressure is higher than under normal physiological conditions, i.e., 140/90 mmHg or higher. Blood pressure is measured as the force exerted by the blood pumped by the heart against the walls of arteries (aorta) and distributed throughout the body. Use of complementary and alternative medic

Human hand functions range from precise-minute handling to heavy and robust movements. Remarkably, 50 percent of all hand functions are made possible by the thumb. Therefore, developing an artificial thumb which can mimic the actions of a real thumb precisely is a major achievement. Most of the development in this area is based on discontinuous thu
