Laparoscopic versus robotic TAPP/TEP inguinal hernia repair: a multicenter, propensity score weighted study.

Hernia : the journal of hernias and abdominal wall surgery
PURPOSE: The objective of this retrospective study was to assess safety and comparative clinical effectiveness of laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair (LIHR) and robot-assisted inguinal hernia repair (RIHR) from multi-institutional experience in Taiwa...

Control of movement of underwater swimmers: Animals, simulated animates and swimming robots.

Physics of life reviews
The control of movement in living organisms represents a fundamental task that the brain has evolved to solve. One crucial aspect is how the nervous system organizes the transformation of sensory information into motor commands. These commands lead t...

Effects of high-intensity gait training with and without soft robotic exosuits in people post-stroke: a development-of-concept pilot crossover trial.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
INTRODUCTION: High-intensity gait training is widely recognized as an effective rehabilitation approach after stroke. Soft robotic exosuits that enhance post-stroke gait mechanics have the potential to improve the rehabilitative outcomes achieved by ...

Robot occupations affect the categorization border between human and robot faces.

Scientific reports
The Uncanny Valley hypothesis implies that people perceive a subjective border between human and robot faces. The robot-human border refers to the level of human-like features that distinguishes humans from robots. However, whether people's perceived...

The application of objective clinical human reliability analysis (OCHRA) in the assessment of basic robotic surgical skills.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: Using a validated, objective, and standardised assessment tool to assess progression and competency is essential for basic robotic surgical training programmes. Objective clinical human reliability analysis (OCHRA) is an error-based asses...

Permanent stoma rate and long-term stoma complications in laparoscopic, robot-assisted, and transanal total mesorectal excisions: a retrospective cohort study.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: The surgical resection of rectal carcinoma is associated with a high risk of permanent stoma rate. Primary anastomosis rate is suggested to be higher in robot-assisted and transanal total mesorectal excision, but permanent stoma rate is u...

Soft robotics informs how an early echinoderm moved.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
The transition from sessile suspension to active mobile detritus feeding in early echinoderms (c.a. 500 Mya) required sophisticated locomotion strategies. However, understanding locomotion adopted by extinct animals in the absence of trace fossils an...

User Experience Evaluation of Upper Limb Rehabilitation Robots: Implications for Design Optimization: A Pilot Study.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
With the development of science and technology, people are trying to use robots to assist in stroke rehabilitation training. This study aims to analyze the result of the formative test to provide the orientation of upper limb rehabilitation robot des...
