Trunk rehabilitation exercises such as those for remediating core stability can help improve the seated balance of patients with weakness or loss of proprioception caused by diseases such as stroke, and aid the recovery of other functions such as gai...
OBJECTIVE: This study is aimed to compare the effect of robot-assisted gait training when the intensity is controlled using patients' biometric data to when controlled by therapist's subjective judgment.

BACKGROUND: Children with cerebral palsy (CP) have disorders of posture and movement and which can limit physical activities such as walkingOBJECTIVE: This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of virtual reality (VR) combined with robot-assist...
BACKGROUND: Gait impairments are common disabling symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD). Among the approaches for gait rehabilitation, interest in robotic devices has grown in recent years. However, the effectiveness compared to other interventions, t...
Persistence of urinary incontinence (UI) after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) is a bothersome problem because of its negative effect on the patient's quality of life (QOL). This study aimed to evaluate the effect of transperineal ultraso...
