Robotic neurorehabilitation in patients with chronic stroke: psychological well-being beyond motor improvement.

International journal of rehabilitation research. Internationale Zeitschrift fur Rehabilitationsforschung. Revue internationale de recherches de readaptation
Although gait abnormality is one of the most disabling events following stroke, cognitive, and psychological impairments can be devastating. The Lokomat is a robotic that has been used widely for gait rehabilitation in several movement disorders, esp...

New frontiers in the rubber hand experiment: when a robotic hand becomes one's own.

Behavior research methods
The rubber hand illusion is an experimental paradigm in which participants consider a fake hand to be part of their body. This paradigm has been used in many domains of psychology (i.e., research on pain, body ownership, agency) and is of clinical im...

Optimized echo state networks with leaky integrator neurons for EEG-based microsleep detection.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
The performance of a microsleep detection system was calculated in terms of its ability to detect the behavioural microsleep state (1-s epochs) from spectral features derived from 16-channel EEG sampled at 256 Hz. Best performance from a single class...

Robotic psychophysics system for assessment, diagnosis and rehabilitation of the neurological causes of falls in the elderly.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Falls are the leading causes of unintentional injuries in the elderly and thus a pose a major hazard to our ageing society. We present the FOHEPO (FOot HEight POsitioning) system to measure, diagnose and eventually rehabilitate ageing-related neurolo...

Development of a method to quantify inter-limb coupling in individuals with hemiparetic stroke.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
A common motor deficit in individuals post-stroke is altered interlimb coupling. Efforts at one extremity can cause involuntary muscle activity and movement at a different extremity. An important step in understanding interlimb coupling and developin...

Effects of prosthesis use on the capability to control myoelectric robotic prosthetic hands.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
The natural control of robotic prosthetic hands with non-invasive techniques is still a challenge: myoelectric prostheses currently give some control capabilities; the application of pattern recognition techniques is promising and recently started to...

Emotion recognition from sound stimuli based on back-propagation neural networks and electroencephalograms.

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America
This research aims to explore the feasibility of using back-propagation (BP) neural networks and electroencephalograms (EEGs) to recognize the emotional reactions induced by sound stimuli in the dimensions of pleasure and arousal, as well as compare ...

Characterization of complexity in the electroencephalograph activity of Alzheimer's disease based on fuzzy entropy.

Chaos (Woodbury, N.Y.)
In this paper, experimental neurophysiologic recording and statistical analysis are combined to investigate the nonlinear characteristic and the cognitive function of the brain. Fuzzy approximate entropy and fuzzy sample entropy are applied to charac...

Intraoperative Management of an Incidentally Identified Ectopic Ureter Inserting Into the Prostate of a Patient Undergoing Radical Prostatectomy for Prostate Cancer: A Case Report.

Medicine
Congenital variations in urinary tract anatomy present unique surgical challenges when they present without prior knowledge. Ectopic ureters occur as a rare anatomic variation of the urinary tract and are often associated with duplicated renal collec...
