A machine learning based approach for identifying traumatic brain injury patients for whom a head CT scan can be avoided.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Head CT scan is more often used to evaluate patients with suspected traumatic brain injury (TBI). However, the use of head CT scans in evaluating TBI is costly with low value endeavor. In this paper, we propose a new algorithm and a set of features t...

Haptic Neurorehabilitation and Virtual Reality for Upper Limb Paralysis: A Review.

Critical reviews in biomedical engineering
Motor and sensory loss or dysfunction affects the quality of life for thousands of individuals daily. The upper limb, and especially the hand, are important for a person's ability to complete activities of daily living. Traditional therapy methods fo...

[Protective effect of erythropoietin on brain tissue in rats with cardiopulmonary resuscitation after asphyxia].

Zhonghua wei zhong bing ji jiu yi xue
OBJECTIVE: To study the protective effect of erythropoietin (EPO) on brain tissue with cardiac arrest-cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CA-CPR) and its mechanism.

[Effects of hydrogen rich water on the expression of Nrf 2 and the oxidative stress in rats with traumatic brain injury].

Zhonghua wei zhong bing ji jiu yi xue
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of hydrogen rich water on the expression of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and oxidative stress in rats with traumatic brain injury (TBI).

Robotic tilt table reduces the occurrence of orthostatic hypotension over time in vegetative states.

International journal of rehabilitation research. Internationale Zeitschrift fur Rehabilitationsforschung. Revue internationale de recherches de readaptation
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of verticalization with or without combined movement of the lower limbs in patients in a vegetative state or a minimally conscious state. In particular, we aimed to study whether, in the group with com...

Prediction of brain age suggests accelerated atrophy after traumatic brain injury.

Annals of neurology
OBJECTIVE: The long-term effects of traumatic brain injury (TBI) can resemble observed in normal ageing, suggesting that TBI may accelerate the ageing process. We investigate this using a neuroimaging model that predicts brain age in healthy individu...
