BACKGROUND: Lower limb muscle bionic devices have attracted significant attention in rehabilitation and assistive sports technology. Despite advancements in mimicking human movement, current devices still face challenges in enhancing strength and mov...
Gesture recognition based on surface electromyography (sEMG) plays a crucial role in human-computer interaction. By analyzing sEMG signals generated from residual forearm muscle activity in trans-radial amputees, it is possible to predict their hand ...
Fat and muscle mass are potential biomarkers of wellbeing and disease in oncology, but clinical measurement methods vary considerably. Here we evaluate the accuracy, precision and ability to track change for multiple deep learning (DL) models that qu...
Biohybrid actuators using muscle rings have been limited to twitching movements and are unsuitable for sustained contractile force applications. In this study, we developed muscle rings capable of generating high contractile forces under tetanus stim...
Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is a genetic neuromuscular disorder characterized by progressive muscle degeneration with substantial variability in severity and progression patterns. FSHD is a highly heterogeneous disease; however, cur...
Deep learning has become powerful and yet versatile tool that allows for the extraction of complex patterns from rich datasets. One field that can benefits from this advancement is human gait analysis. Conventional gait analysis requires a specialize...
BACKGROUND: Aging alters musculoskeletal structure and function, affecting muscle mass, composition, and strength, increasing the risk of falls and loss of independence in older adults. This study assessed cross-sectional area (CSA) and fat infiltrat...
Cellular senescence is an irreversible state of cell cycle arrest with a complex role in tissue repair, aging, and disease. However, inconsistencies in identifying cellular senescence have led to varying conclusions about their functional significanc...
The demand for advanced human-machine interfaces (HMIs) highlights the need for accurate measurement of muscle contraction states. Traditional methods, such as electromyography, cannot measure passive muscle contraction states, while optical and ultr...
