The rehabilitation robot: factors influencing its use, advantages and limitations in clinical rehabilitation.

PURPOSE: Despite the proven effectiveness of rehabilitation robots (RR) in the literature, they are still little used in clinical rehabilitation. The aim of this study was to analyse the factors influencing the use of RR and the perception of therapists who used RR.

Influences of Edaravone on Necroptosis-Related Proteins and Oxidative Stress in Rats with Lower Extremity Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury.

The study aimed to investigate the influences of edaravone on necroptosis-related proteins and oxidative stress in rats with lower extremity ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. The normal group (n=10), model group (lower extremity I/R injury model, n=10), treatment group (treatment with edaravone, n=10) and intervention group [lower extremity I/R injury model intervened with necrostatin-1 (Nec-1), ...
