Schizophrenia stands for a long-lasting state of mental uncertainty that may bring to an end the relation among behavior, thought, and emotion; that is, it may lead to unreliable perception, not suitable actions and feelings, and a sense of mental fr...
BACKGROUND: In pediatric urology, robot-assisted surgery has overcome several impediments of conventional laparoscopy. However, workspace has a major impact on surgical performance. The limited space in an infant can significantly impede the mobility...
Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is an emerging optical technique, which can assess brain activities associated with tasks. In this study, six participants were asked to perform three imageries of hand clenching associated with force and...
In this paper, we propose a novel extension of the extreme learning machine (ELM) algorithm for single-hidden layer feedforward neural network training that is able to incorporate subspace learning (SL) criteria on the optimization process followed f...

BACKGROUND: To develop and assess an efficient method to identify end-expiratory end-diastolic (ED) and end-systolic (ES) images for accurate quantification of left ventricular (LV) function in real-time cine imaging.
This pioneering observational study explored the interaction between subacute stroke inpatients and a rehabilitation robot during upper limb training. 25 stroke survivors (age 55 ± 17 years; time since stroke, 52 ± 21 days) with severe upper limb par...
PURPOSE: To evaluate the effect of a novel valveless trocar system (VTS) on perioperative outcomes in patients undergoing robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP).
Although the prevalence of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) has risen sharply in the last few years reaching 1 in 68, the average age of diagnosis in the United States remains close to 4--well past the developmental window when early intervention has t...

INTRODUCTION: Robot-assisted surgery for the treatment of gastric cancer is considered to be safe and feasible with early post-operative outcomes comparable to open and laparoscopic series. However, data regarding long-term oncological outcomes are l...
INTRODUCTION: Robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP) is being increasingly used. However, a steep Trendelenburg position and pneumoperitoneum during RALP has an impact on the respiratory, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular systems. To preve...
