Comparing robotic surgery with laparoscopy and laparotomy for endometrial cancer management: a cohort study.

International journal of surgery (London, England)
INTRODUCTION: Robotic surgery has been applied in managing various types of gynecologic cancers. The purpose of this study is to compare the surgical outcomes of robotic surgery, laparoscopy and laparotomy for managing endometrial cancer.

Comparison of robotics, functional electrical stimulation, and motor learning methods for treatment of persistent upper extremity dysfunction after stroke: a randomized controlled trial.

Archives of physical medicine and rehabilitation
OBJECTIVE: To compare response to upper-limb treatment using robotics plus motor learning (ML) versus functional electrical stimulation (FES) plus ML versus ML alone, according to a measure of complex functional everyday tasks for chronic, severely i...

Control of robotic assistance using poststroke residual voluntary effort.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Poststroke hemiparesis limits the ability to reach, in part due to involuntary muscle co-activation (synergies). Robotic approaches are being developed for both therapeutic benefit and continuous assistance during activities of daily living. Robotic ...

Artificial neural network and falls in community-dwellers: a new approach to identify the risk of recurrent falling?

Journal of the American Medical Directors Association
BACKGROUND: Identification of the risk of recurrent falls is complex in older adults. The aim of this study was to examine the efficiency of 3 artificial neural networks (ANNs: multilayer perceptron [MLP], modified MLP, and neuroevolution of augmenti...

Diagnostic performance of bone scintigraphy analyzed by three artificial neural network systems.

Annals of nuclear medicine
OBJECTIVE: The accuracy of bone scintigraphy analyzed by computer-assisted diagnosis (CAD) software involving multiple artificial neural network (ANN) systems has not been well established.

Prediction of biochemical recurrence after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy: analysis of 784 Japanese patients.

International journal of urology : official journal of the Japanese Urological Association
OBJECTIVES: To examine biochemical recurrence after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy in Japanese patients, and to develop a risk stratification model for biochemical recurrence.
