Brief Report: A Novel System to Evaluate Autism Spectrum Disorders Using Two Humanoid Robots.

Journal of autism and developmental disorders
We investigated the feasibility of our novel evaluation system for use with children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). We prepared the experimental setting with two humanoid robots in reference to the birthday party scene in the Autism Diagnostic...

Brief Report: Evaluating the Utility of Varied Technological Agents to Elicit Social Attention from Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders.

Journal of autism and developmental disorders
Technological agents could be effective tools to be used in interventions for enhancing social orienting for some young children with ASD. We examined response to social bids in preschool children with ASD and typical development (TD) at a very early...

Hematological disturbances in Down syndrome: single centre experience of thirteen years and review of the literature.

The Turkish journal of pediatrics
Karakurt N, Uslu İ, Aygün C, Albayrak C. Hematological disturbances in Down syndrome: single centre experience of thirteen years and review of the literature. Turk J Pediatr 2019; 61: 664-670. Neonates with Down syndrome (DS) may have hematological a...

Ultrashort ssDNA in Retinoblastoma Patients Blood Plasma Detected by a Novel High Resolution HPLC Technique: a Preliminary Report.

Acta medica (Hradec Kralove)
A significant population of ultrashort (50-150n) single-stranded DNA fragments were found in exosome-free blood plasma of retinoblastoma patients (6.84 ng mL-1), but not in plasma of healthy donors. An original high resolution HPLC technique has been...

Carpal Bone Segmentation Using Fully Convolutional Neural Network.

Current medical imaging reviews
BACKGROUND: Bone Age Assessment (BAA) refers to a clinical procedure that aims to identify a discrepancy between biological and chronological age of an individual by assessing the bone age growth. Currently, there are two main methods of executing BA...

Validation of a robot serious game assessment protocol for upper limb motor impairment in children with cerebral palsy.

NeuroRehabilitation
BACKGROUND: The ROBiGAME project aims to implement serious games on robots to rehabilitate upper limb (UL) motor function in children with cerebral palsy (CP). Serious game characteristics (target position, level of assistance/resistance, level of fo...

A Phenotypic Description of Congenital Myotonic Dystrophy using PhenoStacks.

Journal of neuromuscular diseases
BACKGROUND: Congenital Myotonic Dystrophy (CDM1) is a rare neuromuscular condition caused by a triplet repeat expansion in the DMPK gene. Despite there being a well-recognized clinical syndrome, there has not been an effort to use a standardized onto...

Improvement of motor performance in children with cerebral palsy treated with exoskeleton robotic training: A retrospective explorative analysis.

Restorative neurology and neuroscience
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) is widely used in children with cerebral palsy (CP), but information about optimal intervention frequency and duration is still lacking and the current evidence about effect of RAGT on motor endurance a...

A Multi-View Deep Learning Framework for EEG Seizure Detection.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
The recent advances in pervasive sensing technologies have enabled us to monitor and analyze the multi-channel electroencephalogram (EEG) signals of epilepsy patients to prevent serious outcomes caused by epileptic seizures. To avoid manual visual in...

Application of machine learning algorithms for the differential diagnosis of peroxisomal disorders.

Journal of biochemistry
We have established diagnostic thresholds of very long-chain fatty acids (VLCFA) for the differential diagnosis of peroxisomal disorders using the machine learning tools. The plasma samples of 131 controls and 90 cases were tested for VLCFA using gas...
