Spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA) progressively impairs gait function, resulting in the need for patients to use a wheelchair approximately 20 years after onset. No reports have investigated the effects of long-term exercise training using th...
Individuals with diminished walking performance caused by neuromuscular impairments often lack plantar flexion muscle activity. Robotic devices have been developed to address these issues and increase walking performance. While these devices have sho...

BACKGROUND: Walking impairment is a common disability post acquired brain injury (ABI), with visually evident arm movement abnormality identified as negatively impacting a multitude of psychological factors. The International Classification of Functi...
BACKGROUND: Improving walking ability is a key objective in the treatment of children and adolescents with cerebral palsy, since it directly affects their activity and participation. In recent years, robotic technology has been implemented in gait tr...
Freezing of Gait (FOG) is a noticeable symptom of Parkinson's disease, like being stuck in place and increasing the risk of falls. The wearable multi-channel sensor system is an efficient method to predict and monitor the FOG, thus warning the wearer...
