Development of an ontology to characterize mental functioning.

Disability and rehabilitation
PURPOSE OF THE ARTICLE: This article describes a conceptual and methodological approach to integrating functional information into an ontology to categorize mental functioning, which to date is an under-developed area of classification, and supports ...

Evaluation of Disability Progression in Multiple Sclerosis via Magnetic-Resonance-Based Deep Learning Techniques.

International journal of molecular sciences
Short-term disability progression was predicted from a baseline evaluation in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) using their three-dimensional T1-weighted (3DT1) magnetic resonance images (MRI). One-hundred-and-eighty-one subjects diagnosed with M...

Large Vessel Occlusion Prediction in the Emergency Department with National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale Components: A Machine Learning Approach.

Journal of stroke and cerebrovascular diseases : the official journal of National Stroke Association
OBJECTIVE: To determine the feasibility of using a machine learning algorithm to screen for large vessel occlusions (LVO) in the Emergency Department (ED).

Machine Learning Algorithm Identifies the Importance of Environmental Factors for Hospital Discharge to Home of Stroke Patients using Wheelchair after Discharge.

Journal of stroke and cerebrovascular diseases : the official journal of National Stroke Association
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Physical environmental factors are generally likely to become barriers for discharge to home of wheelchair users, compared with non-wheelchair users. However, the importance of environmental factors has not been investigated a...

Effects of a Soft Robotic Hand for Hand Rehabilitation in Chronic Stroke Survivors.

Journal of stroke and cerebrovascular diseases : the official journal of National Stroke Association
OBJECTIVES: Soft robotic hands are proposed for stroke rehabilitation in terms of their high compliance and low inherent stiffness. We investigated the clinical efficacy of a soft robotic hand that could actively flex and extend the fingers in chroni...

What is the impact of robotic rehabilitation on balance and gait outcomes in people with multiple sclerosis? A systematic review of randomized control trials.

European journal of physical and rehabilitation medicine
INTRODUCTION: In recent years, robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) has been proposed as therapy for balance and gait dysfunctions in people with multiple sclerosis (PwMS). Through this systematic review, we aimed to discuss the impact of RAGT on bala...

Decision Tree Algorithm Identifies Stroke Patients Likely Discharge Home After Rehabilitation Using Functional and Environmental Predictors.

Journal of stroke and cerebrovascular diseases : the official journal of National Stroke Association
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The importance of environmental factors for stroke patients to achieve home discharge was not scientifically proven. There are limited studies on the application of the decision tree algorithm with various functional and envir...

Towards a new model and classification of mood disorders based on risk resilience, neuro-affective toxicity, staging, and phenome features using the nomothetic network psychiatry approach.

Metabolic brain disease
Current diagnoses of mood disorders are not cross validated. The aim of the current paper is to explain how machine learning techniques can be used to a) construct a model which ensembles risk/resilience (R/R), adverse outcome pathways (AOPs), stagin...

Effects of Robotic Exoskeleton-Aided Gait Training in the Strength, Body Balance, and Walking Speed in Individuals With Multiple Sclerosis: A Single-Group Preliminary Study.

Archives of physical medicine and rehabilitation
OBJECTIVE: To assess effects of 15 exoskeleton-assisted gait training sessions, reflected by the muscle strength of the lower limbs and by walking speed immediately after the training sessions and at the 6-week follow-up.
