Influence of the amount of body weight support on lower limb joints' kinematics during treadmill walking at different gait speeds: Reference data on healthy adults to define trajectories for robot assistance.

Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers. Part H, Journal of engineering in medicine
Several robotic devices have been developed for the rehabilitation of treadmill walking in patients with movement disorders due to injuries or diseases of the central nervous system. These robots induce coordinated multi-joint movements aimed at repr...

Feasibility of Synergy-Based Exoskeleton Robot Control in Hemiplegia.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Here, we present a study on exoskeleton robot control based on inter-limb locomotor synergies using a robot control method developed to target hemiparesis. The robot control is based on inter-limb locomotor synergies and kinesiological information fr...

Convolutional Neural Network Based Metal Artifact Reduction in X-Ray Computed Tomography.

IEEE transactions on medical imaging
In the presence of metal implants, metal artifacts are introduced to x-ray computed tomography CT images. Although a large number of metal artifact reduction (MAR) methods have been proposed in the past decades, MAR is still one of the major problems...

Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Features Identified by Unsupervised Machine Learning on Optical Coherence Tomography Scans Predict Glaucoma Progression.

Investigative ophthalmology & visual science
PURPOSE: To apply computational techniques to wide-angle swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) images to identify novel, glaucoma-related structural features and improve detection of glaucoma and prediction of future glaucomatous progres...

Effectiveness of a single session of dual-transcranial direct current stimulation in combination with upper limb robotic-assisted rehabilitation in chronic stroke patients: a randomized, double-blind, cross-over study.

International journal of rehabilitation research. Internationale Zeitschrift fur Rehabilitationsforschung. Revue internationale de recherches de readaptation
The impact of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is controversial in the neurorehabilitation literature. It has been suggested that tDCS should be combined with other therapy to improve their efficacy. To assess the effectiveness of a sin...

Texture Analysis and Machine Learning for Detecting Myocardial Infarction in Noncontrast Low-Dose Computed Tomography: Unveiling the Invisible.

Investigative radiology
OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to test whether texture analysis and machine learning enable the detection of myocardial infarction (MI) on non-contrast-enhanced low radiation dose cardiac computed tomography (CCT) images.

Development and Evaluation of an Automated Machine Learning Algorithm for In-Hospital Mortality Risk Adjustment Among Critical Care Patients.

Critical care medicine
OBJECTIVES: Risk adjustment algorithms for ICU mortality are necessary for measuring and improving ICU performance. Existing risk adjustment algorithms are not widely adopted. Key barriers to adoption include licensing and implementation costs as wel...

Predicting Corticosteroid-Free Biologic Remission with Vedolizumab in Crohn's Disease.

Inflammatory bowel diseases
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Vedolizumab (VDZ) is effective for Crohn's disease (CD) but costly and is slow to produce remission. Early knowledge of whether vedolizumab is likely to succeed is valuable for physicians, patients, and insurers.

Effect of the Synchronization-Based Control of a Wearable Robot Having a Non-Exoskeletal Structure on the Hemiplegic Gait of Stroke Patients.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
We have been developing the robotic wear curara as both a welfare device and rehabilitation robot that assists the elderly and disabled. curara is aimed at user friendliness. We have, thus, chosen a non-exoskeleton structure made of a plastic so that...

Robotics in neurosurgery.

Annals of the Royal College of Surgeons of England
One of the first surgical specialties to adopt robotic procedures and one that continues to innovate
