PURPOSE OF THE STUDY Rhizarthrosis, a degenerative condition of the carpometacarpal joint of the thumb, affects mainly women. Surgical treatment is indicated once the non-operative treatment fails. Thumb carpometacarpal joint total arthroplasty constitutes one of the surgical treatment options. This study aims to evaluate the short-term functional and radiological outcomes of Touch® prosthesis with a minimum follow-up period, namely two years after surgery. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study presents the outcomes of a group of 56 endoprostheses implanted in 48 patients. The dual mobility Touch® prosthesis is evaluated. The group consisted of 41 women and 7 men, with the median age of the patients being 62 years. The patients were indicated for surgery after the non-operative treatment had failed. All of them suffered from stage II - IV osteoarthritis according to the Eaton-Littler classification. The range of motion - the opposition was assessed using the Kapandji score. The function and the pain were evaluated with the DASH questionnaire preoperatively and at 3 months, 6 months, 1 year and 2 years postoperatively. RESULTS After 24 months, 91.1% (51 patients) were satisfied with the surgical outcome. Altogether 8.9% of patients (5 patients) experienced postoperative exercise-induced pain, limitation of movement of the CMC joint or hand weakness. No dislocation or endoprosthetic loosening occurred in the evaluated group. Primary wound healing was reported in all patients and no superficial or deep infection was observed. The mean DASH score was 65.3 points preoperatively; at the 2-year follow-up, the mean score decreased to 10.8 points. The pain assessed in question 24 of the DASH questionnaire decreased from the mean value of 4.45 points to 1.2 points. After two years, the range of motion of all patients was X/X according to Kapandji. DISCUSSION There are plenty of surgical techniques to manage rhizarthrosis. All types of surgery have their pros and cons. Most endoprostheses used nowadays show good short-term, mid-term, and some of them even long-term outcomes in terms of survival. The Touch® prosthesis, characterized by dual mobility, is the 3rd generation thumb CMC prosthesis and in our study achives comparable short-term outcomes to those reported by international literature. The use of the dual mobility design appears to be effective in reducing the dislocation rate. CONCLUSIONS The Touch® thumb CMC prosthesis achieves very good short-term functional and radiological outcomes. We can recommend the prosthesis provided the patients are followed-up for more than two years after surgery. Key words: rhizarthrosis, osteoarthritis, endoprosthesis of the carpometacarpal joint, dual mobility, Touch®.

Interpersonal touch behavior differs across cultures, yet no study to date has systematically tested for cultural variation in affective touch, nor examined the factors that might account for this variability. Here, over 14,000 individuals from 45 countries were asked whether they embraced, stroked, kissed, or hugged their partner, friends, and youngest child during the week preceding the study. We then examined a range of hypothesized individual-level factors (sex, age, parasitic history, conservatism, religiosity, and preferred interpersonal distance) and cultural-level factors (regional temperature, parasite stress, regional conservatism, collectivism, and religiosity) in predicting these affective-touching behaviors. Our results indicate that affective touch was most prevalent in relationships with partners and children, and its diversity was relatively higher in warmer, less conservative, and religious countries, and among younger, female, and liberal people. This research allows for a broad and integrated view of the bases of cross-cultural variability in affective touch.

Reaching to target locations on the body has been studied little despite its importance for adaptive behaviors such as feeding, grooming, and indicating a source of discomfort. This behavior requires multisensory integration given that it involves coordination of touch, proprioception, and sometimes vision as well as action. Here we examined the origins of this skill by investigating how infants begin to localize targets on the body and the motor strategies by which they do so. Infants (7-21 months of age) were prompted to reach to a vibrating target placed at five arm/hand locations (elbow, crook of elbow, forearm, palm, and top of hand) one by one. To manually localize the target, infants needed to reach with one arm to the other. Results suggest that coordination increases with age in the strategies that infants used to localize body targets. Most infants showed bimanual coordination and usually moved the target arm toward the reaching arm to assist reaching. Furthermore, intersensory coordination increased with age. Simultaneous movements of the two arms increased with age, as did coordination between vision and reaching. The results provide new information about the development of multisensory integration during tactile localization and how such integration is linked to action.
