High-intensity interval training with robot-assisted gait therapy vs. treadmill gait therapy in chronic stroke: a randomized controlled trial.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
OBJECTIVE: Stroke is a leading cause of long-term disability, significantly impacting patients' mobility and quality of life. Robot-assisted gait therapy (RAGT) and high-intensity interval training (HIIT) have individually shown potential in improvin...

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...

Personalized prediction of gait freezing using dynamic mode decomposition.

Scientific reports
Freezing of gait (FoG) is a common severe gait disorder in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease. The ability to predict the onset of FoG episodes early on allows for timely intervention, which is essential for improving the life quality of pati...

A wearable ankle-assisted robot for improving gait function and pattern in stroke patients.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Hemiplegic gait after a stroke can result in a decreased gait speed and asymmetrical gait pattern. Normal gait patterns and speed are typically the ultimate goals of gait function in stroke rehabilitation. The purpose of this study was to...

A lightweight approach to gait abnormality detection for At Home health monitoring.

Computers in biology and medicine
Gait abnormality detection is a growing application in machine learning based health assessment due to its potential in domains from clinical health reviews to at home health monitoring. This latter application is of particular use for older adults, ...

Freezing of gait detection: The effect of sensor type, position, activities, datasets, and machine learning model.

Journal of Parkinson's disease
BackgroundFreezing of gait (FoG) is a complex, frequent, and disabling motor symptom of Parkinson's disease (PD). Wearable technology has the potential to improve FoG assessment by providing objective, quantitative, and continuous monitoring.Objectiv...

Effects of robot-assisted gait training within 1 week after stroke onset on degree of gait independence in individuals with hemiparesis: a propensity score-matched analysis in a single-center cohort study.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) is an effective method for treating gait disorders in individuals with stroke. However, no previous studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of RAGT in individuals with acute stroke. This study aimed...

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...

Machine learning techniques for independent gait recovery prediction in acute anterior circulation ischemic stroke.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to develop and validate a machine learning-based predictive model for gait recovery in patients with acute anterior circulation ischemic stroke.
