Body weight support (BWS) promotes better functional outcomes for neurologically challenged patients. Despite the established effectiveness of BWS in gait rehabilitation, the findings on biomechanical effects of BWS training still remain contradictor...
Currently, there exists a need for a more thorough understanding of native hip joint kinematics to improve the understanding of pathological conditions, injury mechanisms, and surgical interventions. A biomechanical testing system able to accomplish ...

A novel robot-aided assist-as-needed gait training paradigm has been developed recently. This paradigm encourages subjects' active participation during training. Previous pilot studies demonstrated that assist-as-needed robot-aided gait training (RAG...
PURPOSE: To evaluate the predictive ability of AI HIP in determining the size and position of prostheses during complex total hip arthroplasty (THA). Additionally, it investigates the factors influencing the accuracy of preoperative planning predicti...
In recent years, hip arthroscopy has made great progress and has been extended to the treatment of intra-articular or periarticular diseases. However, the complex structure of the hip joint, high technical operation requirements and relatively long l...
