Gait training with a wearable powered robot during stroke rehabilitation: a randomized parallel-group trial.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: We have developed a wearable rehabilitation robot, "curara®," and examined its immediate effect in patients with spinocerebellar degeneration and stroke, but its rehabilitative effect has not been clarified. The purpose of this study was ...

Proactivity of fish and leadership of self-propelled robotic fish during interaction.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Fish interacting with biomimetic robotic fish is beneficial for animal behavior research, particularly in the study of collective behavior. Compared with passive-dragging robotic fish, self-propelled robotic fish floats in water, and its movement mat...

Platform development and gliding optimization of a robotic flying fish with morphing pectoral fins.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
The aquatic-aerial robot with the free interface crossing can enhance adaptability in complex aquatic environments. However, its design is extremely challenging for the striking discrepancies in propulsion principles. The flying fish in nature exhibi...

Introduction to a Twin Dual-Axis Robotic Platform for Studies of Lower Limb Biomechanics.

IEEE journal of translational engineering in health and medicine
This paper presents a twin dual-axis robotic platform system which is designed for the characterization of postural balance under various environmental conditions and quantification of bilateral ankle mechanics in 2 degrees-of-freedom (DOF) during st...

The long path ahead of robotics in psychiatry.

European neuropsychopharmacology : the journal of the European College of Neuropsychopharmacology

Three-port transoral robotic thyroidectomy without axillary incision: A preliminary report on a case series from Vietnam.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: Transoral robotic thyroidectomy (TORT) is one of the newest approaches and draws attention because of its cosmetic excellence. Here, we present our preliminary data from the initial 5 consecutive patients to explore the feasibility of thr...

Learning curve of robot-assisted total knee arthroplasty and its effects on implant position in asian patients: a prospective study.

BMC musculoskeletal disorders
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted total knee arthroplasty (r-TKA) can reportedly achieve more accurate implant positioning than conventional total knee arthroplasty (c-TKA), although its learning curve is controversial. Moreover, few studies have investigat...

Robot-assisted Radical Cystectomy with Orthotopic Neobladder Reconstruction: Techniques and Functional Outcomes in Males.

European urology
BACKGROUND: Little is known regarding functional outcomes after robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) and intracorporeal neobladder (ICNB) reconstruction.

Three-dimensional Virtual Models of the Kidney with Colored Perfusion Regions: A New Algorithm-based Tool for Optimizing the Clamping Strategy During Robot-assisted Partial Nephrectomy.

European urology
BACKGROUND: An empirical selective clamping strategy based on the direction of the arterial branches can lead to failures during partial nephrectomy, even when assisted by three-dimensional virtual models (3DVMs).

First Comparison of Retroperitoneal Versus Transperitoneal Robot-Assisted Nephroureterectomy with Bladder Cuff: A Single Center Study.

Annals of surgical oncology
INTRODUCTION: After recent presentation of the first complete robot-assisted retroperitoneal nephroureterectomy with bladder cuff (RRNU) for patients with upper tract urothelial cancer (UTUC), we aimed to compare this new surgical technique with robo...
