Robot-assisted retroperitoneal lymph node dissection: Initial experience in Japan.

Asian journal of endoscopic surgery
For patients with testicular tumors who need the surgical management, open retroperitoneal lymph node dissection (O-RPLND) is considered the gold standard treatment. However, recently, robot-assisted RPLND (R-RPLND) has gained popularity as a minimal...

European journal of surgical oncology : the journal of the European Society of Surgical Oncology and the British Association of Surgical Oncology
INTRODUCTION: Aim of the study was to evaluate perioperative, postoperative and mid-term functional outcomes of Florence intracorporeal neobladder (FloRIN) configuration technique performed with stentless procedure.

Indirect Sensing of Subclinical Intramammary Infections in Dairy Herds with a Milking Robot.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
This study determined the impact of subclinical intramammary infections (IMIs), such as the major and minor udder pathogens (MaPs and MiPs), on the somatic cell count (SCC) in cow milk and investigated the possibilities of indirect sensing of the udd...

Effect of 4-weeks exercise program using wearable hip-assist robot (EX1) in older adults: one group pre- and post- test.

BMC geriatrics
BACKGROUND: Older adults have muscle loss and are at risk of falling. Recently, research in the healthcare field has been actively conducted, and Samsung Electronics has developed EX1, a hip joint assisted robot for exercise. This study aimed to veri...

Recent advances in smart wearable sensors as electronic skin.

Journal of materials chemistry. B
Flexible and multifunctional electronic devices and soft robots inspired by human organs, such as skin, have many applications. However, the emergence of electronic skins (e-skins) or textiles in biomedical engineering has made a great revolution in ...

Impact of industrial robot applications on global value chain participation of China manufacturing industry: Mediation effect based on product upgrading.

PloS one
Promoting the application of industrial robot (IR) is an important module for China to build core competitiveness, and it is also the main grasp of global value chain participation (GVCP). Using China manufacturing industry panel data from 2006-2014,...

From multimodal features to behavioural inferences: A pipeline to model engagement in human-robot interactions.

PloS one
Modelling the engaging behaviour of humans using multimodal data collected during human-robot interactions has attracted much research interest. Most methods that have been proposed previously predict engaging behaviour directly from multimodal featu...

Gait training using a wearable robotic hip device for incomplete spinal cord injury: A preliminary study.

The journal of spinal cord medicine
CONTEXT/OBJECTIVE: To explore changes in gait functions for patients with chronic spinal cord injury (SCI) before and after standard rehabilitation and rehabilitation with a wearable hip device, explore the utility of robot-assisted gait training (RA...

A comparative study of robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery and conventional approaches for short-term outcomes of anatomical segmentectomy.

General thoracic and cardiovascular surgery
OBJECTIVES: Since anatomical segmentectomy requires meticulous dissection of the segmental pulmonary vessels and bronchus, robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (RATS) has been widely adopted in recent years. We investigated the usefulness of RATS seg...

Perioperative and Survival Outcomes of Patients Treated With Robot-Assisted Partial Nephrectomy and Percutaneous Microwave Ablation for Small Renal Masses: A Single Center Experience.

Clinical genitourinary cancer
BACKGROUND: Robot assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) and microwave ablation (MWA) are 2 of the most advanced techniques for the management of localized small renal masses.
