Robot-assisted thymectomy in large anterior mediastinal tumors: A comparative study with video-assisted thymectomy and open surgery.

Thoracic cancer
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of robot-assisted thymectomy (RAT) in large anterior mediastinal tumors (AMTs) (size ≥6 cm) compared with video-assisted thymectomy (VAT) and open surgery.

Brain-Computer Interface-Controlled Exoskeletons in Clinical Neurorehabilitation: Ready or Not?

Neurorehabilitation and neural repair
The development of brain-computer interface-controlled exoskeletons promises new treatment strategies for neurorehabilitation after stroke or spinal cord injury. By converting brain/neural activity into control signals of wearable actuators, brain/ne...

A perspective on plant robotics: from bioinspiration to hybrid systems.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
As miscellaneous as the Plant Kingdom is, correspondingly diverse are the opportunities for taking inspiration from plants for innovations in science and engineering. Especially in robotics, properties like growth, adaptation to environments, ingenio...

Status of robot-assisted artificial total joint arthroplasty in China: a cross-sectional survey of joint surgeons.

International orthopaedics
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to report on the use of Robotic-assisted total joint arthroplasty (RA-TJA) in China as well as the experience and expectations of Chinese doctors regarding this technology.

Robot-assisted versus navigation-assisted screw placement in spinal vertebrae.

International orthopaedics
PURPOSE: Both robots and navigation are effective strategies for optimizing screw placement, as compared to freehand placement. However, few studies have compared the accuracy and efficiency of these two techniques. Thus, the purpose of this study is...

The effect of an interactive robot on children's post-operative anxiety, mobilization, and parents' satisfaction; randomized controlled study.

Journal of pediatric nursing
PURPOSE: To evaluate the effect of an interactive robot on Turkish children's post-operative anxiety, mobilization, and parents' satisfaction related to post-operative care.

Robot-assisted radical prostatectomy using a novel urethral reconstruction technique vs standard vesicourethral anastomosis. A retrospective cohort study.

World journal of urology
BACKGROUND: Urinary incontinence is a common postoperative complication of radical prostatectomy (RP). In order to improve postoperative urinary continence rate, we proposed a urethral reconstruction technique which can prevent functional urethra ret...

A Single-Institution Comparison of Robot-Assisted and Conventional Laparoscopic Colorectal Surgeries.

The American surgeon
There has been ongoing discussion regarding the superiority of robotic laparoscopic surgery (RLS) over conventional laparoscopic surgery (CLS) in many surgical subspecialties. We therefore sought to elucidate if RLS is associated with more favorable ...
