The coordination of muscles in human locomotion is commonly understood as the integration of motor modules known as muscle synergies. Recent research has delved into the adaptation of muscle synergies during the acquisition of new motor skills. Howev...
Lymphedema is a chronic condition characterized by lymphatic fluid accumulation, primarily affecting the limbs. Its diagnosis is challenging due to symptom overlap with conditions like chronic venous insufficiency (CVI), deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a...
Maintaining the balance and safety of the exoskeleton human-robot coupling system is a prerequisite for realizing the rehabilitation training function. Therefore, research on the balance of lower limb exoskeleton robots has attracted much attention. ...
This study aims to compare brain activity differences under the motor imagery-brain-computer interface (MI-BCI), motor imagery (MI), and resting (REST) paradigms through EEG microstate and functional connectivity (FC) analysis, providing a theoretica...
The burden of diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) is exacerbated in diabetic patients with concomitant arteriosclerotic occlusion disease (ASO) in the lower extremities, who experience more severe symptoms and poorer prognoses. The study aims to develop a pre...
Rehabilitation after a stroke is vital for regaining functional abilities. However, a shortage of rehabilitation professionals leads to many patients with severe disabilities. Traditional rehabilitation methods can be time-consuming and hard to measu...
BACKGROUND: Lower limb exoskeleton rehabilitation robot is a new technology to improve the lower limb motor function of stroke patients. Recovery of motor function after stroke is closely related to neuroplasticity in the motor cortex and associated ...
Despite remarkable progress in robotic exoskeletons, exoskeletons are still far from matching human-level guidance and locomotion performance in gait training or movement enhancement. A desirable exoskeleton would first provide a standard gait profil...
