This paper introduces a newly developed apparatus, Iron Rat, for locomotion research in rodents. Its main purpose is to allow maximal freedom of voluntary overground movement of the animal while providing forceful interaction to the hindlimbs. Advant...
OBJECTIVE: In a previous study we demonstrated continuous translation, orientation and one-dimensional grasping control of a prosthetic limb (seven degrees of freedom) by a human subject with tetraplegia using a brain-machine interface (BMI). The cur...

OBJECTIVE: To review the research progress on the application of digital orthopedic technology in total hip arthroplasty (THA) for developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH), thereby providing a reference for clinical decision-making. METHODS: A compre...
BACKGROUND: Periprosthetic acetabular fractures following primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) using a cementless acetabular component range from occult to severe fractures. The aims of this study were to evaluate the perioperative periprosthetic ace...

Burn injuries often result in severe hand complications, including joint contractures and nerve damage, sometimes leading to amputation. Despite early treatment, hypertrophic scarring frequently hampers hand function recovery, and the thick raised sc...
INTRODUCTION: The evolving landscape of healthcare information dissemination has been dramatically influenced by the rise of artificial intelligence (AI) driven chatbots, providing patients with accessible and interactive platforms to obtain knowledg...
