: Application of the EMG-driven robotic training in everyday therapeutic processes is a modern and innovative form of neurorehabilitation among patients after stroke. Active participation of the patient contributes to significantly higher activation ...
Falling in Parkinsonian syndromes (PS) is associated with postural instability and consists a common cause of disability among PS patients. Current posturographic practices record the body's center-of-pressure displacement (statokinesigram) while the...
OBJECTIVE: To examine whether tailored robotic platform training could improve postural stability compared with conventional balance treatment in patients with mild Parkinson's disease. Design: Randomized single-blind pilot study.
With approaches for the detection of joint positions in color images such as HRNet and OpenPose being available, consideration of corresponding approaches for depth images is limited even though depth images have several advantages over color images ...
Previous studies have shown that functional mobility, along with other physical functions, decreases with advanced age. However, it is still unclear which domains of functioning (body structures, body functions, and activities) are most closely relat...

BACKGROUND: and purpose: Performing a cognitive task while maintaining postural stability, known as "dual-task" condition, can increase the cognitive demand and reduce the postural control capacity. The inability to allocate attention to postural con...
Using standard digital cameras in combination with deep learning (DL) for pose estimation is promising for the in-home and independent use of exercise games (exergames). We need to investigate to what extent such DL-based systems can provide satisfyi...
BACKGROUND: Although risk factors that lead to falling in Parkinson's disease (PD) have been previously studied, the established predictors are mostly non-modifiable. A novel method for fall risk assessment may provide more insight into preventable h...

OBJECTIVE: To assess effects of 15 exoskeleton-assisted gait training sessions, reflected by the muscle strength of the lower limbs and by walking speed immediately after the training sessions and at the 6-week follow-up.
It is unclear whether postural sway characteristics could be used as diagnostic biomarkers for autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The purpose of this study was to develop and validate an automated identification of postural control patterns in children ...
