Robot-supported upper limb training in a virtual learning environment : a pilot randomized controlled trial in persons with MS.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Despite the functional impact of upper limb dysfunction in multiple sclerosis (MS), effects of intensive exercise programs and specifically robot-supported training have been rarely investigated in persons with advanced MS.

Experience matters: long-term results of pulmonary vein isolation using a robotic navigation system for the treatment of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.

Clinical research in cardiology : official journal of the German Cardiac Society
BACKGROUND: Long-term results after circumferential pulmonary vein isolation (CPVI) for the treatment of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) using a robotic navigation system (RNS) have not yet been reported.

Identifying risk factors for heart disease over time: Overview of 2014 i2b2/UTHealth shared task Track 2.

Journal of biomedical informatics
The second track of the 2014 i2b2/UTHealth natural language processing shared task focused on identifying medical risk factors related to Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) in the narratives of longitudinal medical records of diabetic patients. The risk f...

Ease of adoption of clinical natural language processing software: An evaluation of five systems.

Journal of biomedical informatics
OBJECTIVE: In recognition of potential barriers that may inhibit the widespread adoption of biomedical software, the 2014 i2b2 Challenge introduced a special track, Track 3 - Software Usability Assessment, in order to develop a better understanding o...

Agile text mining for the 2014 i2b2/UTHealth Cardiac risk factors challenge.

Journal of biomedical informatics
This paper describes the use of an agile text mining platform (Linguamatics' Interactive Information Extraction Platform, I2E) to extract document-level cardiac risk factors in patient records as defined in the i2b2/UTHealth 2014 challenge. The appro...

Influence of the central venous site on the transpulmonary thermodilution parameters in critically ill burn patients.

Burns : journal of the International Society for Burn Injuries
The aim of this study was to verify the measurement concordance of cardiac index (CI), extra-vascular lung water index (EVLWI) and global end diastolic volume index (GEDVI) with transpulmonary thermodilution (TPTD) between the jugular and femoral acc...

Robotic retroperitoneal lymph node dissection in gynaecological neoplasms: comparison of extraperitoneal and transperitoneal lymphadenectomy.

Archives of gynecology and obstetrics
OBJECTIVE: The main aim of our study is to review the till now available literature data on the role of robotic retroperitoneal lymph node dissection in gynaecological cancers by comparing the extraperitoneal versus the transperitoneal approach.

A risk management model for familial breast cancer: A new application using Fuzzy Cognitive Map method.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
Breast cancer is the most deadly disease affecting women and thus it is natural for women aged 40-49 years (who have a family history of breast cancer or other related cancers) to assess their personal risk for developing familial breast cancer (FBC)...

Combined Clinic-Home Approach for Upper Limb Robotic Therapy After Stroke: A Pilot Study.

Archives of physical medicine and rehabilitation
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the feasibility of a combined clinic-home intervention using a robotic elbow brace and, secondarily, to collect preliminary data on the efficacy of this clinic-home intervention.

Postoperative photodynamic therapy as a new adjuvant treatment after robot-assisted salvage surgery of recurrent squamous cell carcinoma of the base of tongue.

World journal of surgical oncology
BACKGROUND: For patients who remain with involved resection margins after transoral robot-assisted salvage surgery (TORS) for recurrent squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) at the base of tongue (BOT) following primary (chemo)radiotherapy, further adjuvant ...
