OBJECTIVES: Postoperative urinary incontinence recovery following robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy is an important outcome. We investigated whether factors that affect urinary incontinence can predict the duration of postoperative incontinen...
In recent years, software-assisted imaging systems, such as computed tomography, have contributed to the improvement of noninvasive options for the diagnostics of coronary heart disease (CHD). In addition, the possibilities of individual morphologica...

INTRODUCTION: Minimally invasive (MI) surgery has long been established as a standard for hysterectomy in benign conditions. Robotic surgery is generally seen as equivalent to conventional laparoscopy in terms of patient outcome. However, robotics mi...
Artificial muscles are indispensable components for next-generation robotics capable of mimicking sophisticated movements of living systems. However, an optimal combination of actuation parameters, including strain, stress, energy density and high me...

This study proposes the time-/event-triggered adaptive neural control strategies for the asymptotic tracking problem of a class of uncertain nonlinear systems with full-state constraints. First, we design a time-triggered strategy. The effect caused ...
The design of obstetrical suction cups used for vacuum assisted delivery has not substantially evolved through history despite of its inherent limitations. The associated challenges concern both the decrease of risk of soft tissue damage and failure ...
End-effector type upper limb rehabilitation robots (ULRRs) are connected to patients at one distal point, making them have simple structures and less complex control algorithms, and they can avoid abnormal motion and posture of the target anatomical ...
