There has been an increase in deaths from cardiovascular diseases following breast cancer therapy. Evidence has shown that this outcome is, in part, associated with cardiotoxicity induced by the chemotherapeutic drugs and the increase in oxidative stress. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of chemotherapy and hormone therapy with tamoxifen on the biomarkers of cardiac injury and oxi...
A 51-year-old man with an incomplete C6 spinal cord injury sustained 26 yrs ago attended twenty 2-hr visits over 10 wks for robot-assisted hand training driven by myoelectric pattern recognition. In each visit, his right hand was assisted to perform motions by an exoskeleton robot, while the robot was triggered by his own motion intentions. The hand robot was designed for this study, which can per...
In this article, we discuss robotic-assisted therapy as an emerging and significant field of clinical rehabilitation and its value proposition for inn...
The present study was carried out to explore the tone production ability of the Mandarin-speaking children with cochlear implants (CI) by using an ar...
BACKGROUND: Robots that physically assist movement are increasingly used in rehabilitation therapy after stroke, yet some studies suggest robotic assi...
The optimal conditions inducing proper brain activation during performance of rehabilitation robots should be examined to enhance the efficiency of ro...
Executing coordinated movements requires that motor and sensory systems cooperate to achieve a motor goal. Impairment of either system may lead to uns...
Two common rehabilitation therapies for individuals possessing neurological conditions are functional electrical stimulation (FES) and robotic assista...
One challenge of robotic rehabilitation interventions is devising ways to encourage and maintain high levels of subject involvement over long duration...
Highly impaired stroke patients at early stages of recovery are unable to generate enough muscle force to lift the weight of their own arm. Accordingl...
This paper presents the preliminary findings of a multi-year clinical study evaluating the effectiveness of adding a brain-machine interface (BMI) to ...
There is a demand for a new neurorehabilitation modality with a brain-computer interface for stroke patients with insufficient or no remaining hand mo...
Admittance control is considered as a promising paradigm in rehabilitation that provides us with means to establish well controlled and adjustable int...
Body weight support (BWS) system is increasingly used in conjunction with treadmills to assist the patients with neurological impairments. Owing to lo...
Since manual rehabilitation therapy can be taxing for both the patient and the physiotherapist, a gait rehabilitation robot has been built to reduce t...
To restore locomotor function following spinal cord injury the disrupted descending supraspinal drive needs to be re-connected to regions caudal to th...
Robotic therapy for rehabilitation of the lower extremity is currently in its early stage of development. Aiming at exploring an efficacious intervent...
Neurological disorders frequently affect walking function which is one of the most fundamental skills to improve quality of life and autonomy, and Lok...
Robotic systems are being used for gait rehabilitation of patients with neurological disorder. These devices are externally powered to apply external ...
In this paper, we present an assist-as-needed scheme that effectively adapted the assistance provided by an ankle rehabilitation robot according to pa...
