Maintaining subject engagement during robotic rehabilitation with a minimal assist-as-needed (mAAN) controller.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
One challenge of robotic rehabilitation interventions is devising ways to encourage and maintain high levels of subject involvement over long duration therapy sessions. Assist-as-needed controllers have been proposed which modulate robot intervention...

A novel pneumatic stimulator for the investigation of noise-enhanced proprioception.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Executing coordinated movements requires that motor and sensory systems cooperate to achieve a motor goal. Impairment of either system may lead to unstable and/or inaccurate movements. In rehabilitation training, however, most approaches have focused...

A pilot study on the optimal speeds for passive wrist movements by a rehabilitation robot of stroke patients: A functional NIRS study.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
The optimal conditions inducing proper brain activation during performance of rehabilitation robots should be examined to enhance the efficiency of robot rehabilitation based on the concept of brain plasticity. In this study, we attempted to investig...

Qualitative analysis of biological tuberculosis samples by an electronic nose-based artificial neural network.

The international journal of tuberculosis and lung disease : the official journal of the International Union against Tuberculosis and Lung Disease
OBJECTIVE: To apply an e-nose system for monitoring headspace volatiles in biological samples from Egyptian patients with active pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) and healthy controls (HCs) and compare them with standard sputum analysis.

Getting ready for the first robotic prostatectomy, from basics to real practice.

Current opinion in urology
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) has been embraced by urologists and has become a treatment standard in many countries already. Learning how to perform a RARP is challenging and has not yet been standardized. The current...

Patient-Specific Classification of ICU Sedation Levels From Heart Rate Variability.

Critical care medicine
OBJECTIVE: To develop a personalizable algorithm to discriminate between sedation levels in ICU patients based on heart rate variability.

Machine Learning Algorithms for Objective Remission and Clinical Outcomes with Thiopurines.

Journal of Crohn's & colitis
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Big data analytics leverage patterns in data to harvest valuable information, but are rarely implemented in clinical care. Optimising thiopurine therapy for inflammatory bowel disease [IBD] has proved difficult. Current methods u...

[Effectiveness of percutaneous endoscopic technique in treatment of intraspinal cement leakage after percutaneous vertebroplasty].

Zhongguo xiu fu chong jian wai ke za zhi = Zhongguo xiufu chongjian waike zazhi = Chinese journal of reparative and reconstructive surgery
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the feasibility and safety of percutaneous endoscopic technique in the treatment of intraspinal cement leakage after percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP).

Prediction of Anti-VEGF Treatment Requirements in Neovascular AMD Using a Machine Learning Approach.

Investigative ophthalmology & visual science
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to predict low and high anti-VEGF injection requirements during a pro re nata (PRN) treatment, based on sets of optical coherence tomography (OCT) images acquired during the initiation phase in neovascular AMD.

An algorithm to increase intelligibility for hearing-impaired listeners in the presence of a competing talker.

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America
Individuals with hearing impairment have particular difficulty perceptually segregating concurrent voices and understanding a talker in the presence of a competing voice. In contrast, individuals with normal hearing perform this task quite well. This...
