PURPOSE OF THE STUDY: Assessing the lower extremity arterial stenosis scores (LEASS) in patients with diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is a challenging task that requires considerable time and efforts from physicians, and it may yield varying results. The p...
This article presents a systematic review on wearable robotic devices that use human-in-the-loop optimization (HILO) strategies to improve human-robot interaction. A total of 46 HILO studies were identified and divided into upper and lower limb robot...
PURPOSE: Angular and longitudinal deformities of leg alignment create excessive stresses across joints, leading to pain and impaired function. Multiple measurements are used to assess these deformities on anteroposterior (AP) full-length radiographs....
Body weight unloading (BWU) is used in rehabilitation/training settings to reduce kinetic requirements, however different BWU methods may be unequally capable of preserving biomechanical movement patterns. Biomechanical analysis of both kinetic and k...
Using inertial measurement units (IMUs) to estimate lower limb joint kinematics and kinetics can provide valuable information for disease diagnosis and rehabilitation assessment. To estimate gait parameters using IMUs, model-based filtering approache...
Machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) approaches can solve the same problems as the finite element method (FEM) with a high degree of accuracy in a fraction of the required time, by learning from previously presented data. In this work, the bo...
Muscle volume must increase substantially during childhood growth to generate the power required to propel the growing body. One unresolved but fundamental question about childhood muscle growth is whether muscles grow at equal rates; that is, if mus...

The treatment of patients with balance disorders is an urgent problem to be solved by the medical community. The causes of balance disorders are diverse. An aging population, traffic accidents, stroke, genetic diseases and so on are all possible fact...
PURPOSE: The study aims to assess the efficacy of robot-assisted rehabilitation training on upper and lower limb motor function and fatigue in Parkinson's disease (PD), and to explore the best-acting robotic rehabilitation program.
