Knee injury prevention via personalized exercise using EDAS method and Sugeno Weber operator under complex q rung orthopair fuzzy data.

Scientific reports
Knee injuries are common in several people, frequently controlling for significant injuries and health care costs. This article explains the role of personalized exercise prescriptions in preventing knee injuries. For this purpose, we used the multic...

Neural mechanisms underlying the improvement of gait disturbances in stroke patients through robot-assisted gait training based on QEEG and fNIRS: a randomized controlled study.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted gait training is more effective in improving lower limb function and walking ability in stroke patients compared to conventional rehabilitation, but the neural mechanisms remain unclear. This study aims to explore the effec...

Development and Validation of the Novel Exergame-Integrated Robotic Stepper Device for Seated Lower Limb Rehabilitation.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Seated rehabilitation is essential in early-stage recovery for patients who can sit but cannot stand or walk. Robotic-based lower limb rehabilitation provides precise, task-specific training for recovery, but its application in seated exercises remai...

A robotic rehabilitation intervention in a home setting during the Covid-19 outbreak: a feasibility pilot study in patients with stroke.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Telerehabilitation allows patients to engage in therapy away from healthcare facilities, often in the comfort of their homes. Studies have suggested that it can effectively improve motor and cognitive function. However, its applicability ...

An innovative model based on machine learning and fuzzy logic for tracking lower limb exercises in stroke patients.

Scientific reports
Rehabilitation after a stroke is vital for regaining functional abilities. However, a shortage of rehabilitation professionals leads to many patients with severe disabilities. Traditional rehabilitation methods can be time-consuming and hard to measu...

Power-free knee rehabilitation robot for home-based isokinetic training.

Nature communications
Robot-assisted isokinetic training has been widely adopted for knee rehabilitation. However, existing rehabilitation facilities are often heavy, bulky, and extremely energy-consuming, which limits the rehabilitation opportunities only at designated h...

Rehabilitation training robot using mirror therapy for the upper and lower limb after stroke: a prospective cohort study.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: This prospective cohort study was designed to investigate and compare the effectiveness of rehabilitation training robots versus conventional rehabilitation training on stroke survivors by monitoring alterations in brain network of stroke...

Combined effects and timing of robotic training and botulinum toxin on upper limb spasticity and motor function: a single‑blinded randomized controlled pilot study.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to evaluate the combined effects of robotic training (RT) and botulinum toxin (BTX) injections on motor function and spasticity in individuals with post-stroke upper limb spasticity (ULS). We also sought to investigate th...

Exploring the Effect of an 8-Week AI-Composed Exercise Program on Pain Intensity and Well-Being in Patients With Spinal Pain: Retrospective Cohort Analysis.

JMIR formative research
BACKGROUND: Spinal pain, one of the most common musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs), significantly impacts the quality of life due to chronic pain and disability. Physical activity has shown promise in managing spinal pain, although optimizing adherence...

Can muscle synergies shed light on the mechanisms underlying motor gains in response to robot-assisted gait training in children with cerebral palsy?

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Children with cerebral palsy (CP) often experience gait impairments. Robot-assisted gait training (RGT) has been shown to have beneficial effects in this patient population. However, clinical outcomes of RGT vary substantially from patien...
