Effects of Robot-Assisted Gait Training with Body Weight Support on Gait and Balance in Stroke Patients.

International journal of environmental research and public health
This study investigated the effects of robot-assisted gait training with body weight support on gait and balance in stroke patients. The study participants comprised 24 patients diagnosed with stroke. Patients were randomly assigned to four groups of...

Effects of ground robot manipulation on hen floor egg reduction, production performance, stress response, bone quality, and behavior.

PloS one
Reducing floor eggs in cage-free (CF) housing systems is among primary concerns for egg producers. The objective of this research was to evaluate the effects of ground robot manipulation on reduction of floor eggs. In addition, the effects of ground ...

Body fat prediction through feature extraction based on anthropometric and laboratory measurements.

PloS one
Obesity, associated with having excess body fat, is a critical public health problem that can cause serious diseases. Although a range of techniques for body fat estimation have been developed to assess obesity, these typically involve high-cost test...

Stable warfarin dose prediction in sub-Saharan African patients: A machine-learning approach and external validation of a clinical dose-initiation algorithm.

CPT: pharmacometrics & systems pharmacology
Warfarin remains the most widely prescribed oral anticoagulant in sub-Saharan Africa. However, because of its narrow therapeutic index, dosing can be challenging. We have therefore (a) evaluated and compared the performance of 21 machine-learning tec...

Design and Simulation Analysis of a Robot-Assisted Gait Trainer with the PBWS System.

Journal of healthcare engineering
In response to the ever-increasing demand of lower limb rehabilitation, this paper presents a novel robot-assisted gait trainer (RGT) to assist the elderly and the pediatric patients with neurological impairments in the lower limb rehabilitation trai...

Analyses of child cardiometabolic phenotype following assisted reproductive technologies using a pragmatic trial emulation approach.

Nature communications
Assisted reproductive technologies (ART) are increasingly used, however little is known about the long-term health of ART-conceived offspring. Weak selection of comparison groups and poorly characterized mechanisms impede current understanding. In a ...

Neglected physical human-robot interaction may explain variable outcomes in gait neurorehabilitation research.

Science robotics
During gait neurorehabilitation, many factors influence the quality of gait patterns, particularly the chosen body-weight support (BWS) device. Consequently, robotic BWS devices play a key role in gait rehabilitation of people with neurological disor...

A deep-learning method using computed tomography scout images for estimating patient body weight.

Scientific reports
Body weight is an indispensable parameter for determination of contrast medium dose, appropriate drug dosing, or management of radiation dose. However, we cannot always determine the accurate patient body weight at the time of computed tomography (CT...

An artificial neural network-pharmacokinetic model and its interpretation using Shapley additive explanations.

CPT: pharmacometrics & systems pharmacology
We developed a method to apply artificial neural networks (ANNs) for predicting time-series pharmacokinetics (PKs), and an interpretable the ANN-PK model, which can explain the evidence of prediction by applying Shapley additive explanations (SHAP). ...
