BACKGROUND: Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is a prevalent musculoskeletal condition affecting approximately 2-3% of the adolescent population. Although exercise-based therapeutic interventions are increasingly employed as non-surgical alternat...
BACKGROUND: Exercise therapy is strongly recommended as a treatment for chronic nonspecific low back pain (CNSLBP). However, therapist-guided exercise therapy requires significant medical resources. Ordinary digital telerehabilitation affects efficac...

RATIONALE: Walking difficulties are common after a stroke. During rehabilitation, electromechanical and robotic gait-training devices can help improve walking. As the evidence and certainty of the evidence may have changed since our last update in 20...
PURPOSE: Robotic devices for upper-limb neurorehabilitation allow an increase in intensity of practice, often relying on video game-based training strategies with limited capacity to individualise training and integrate functional training. This stud...
