To evaluate the feasibility and outcomes of performing robot-assisted pelvic surgery at a reduced angle of Trendelenburg position. This was a prospective case-control study of 67 patients in 2:1 ratio. Controls were operated with steep Trendelenburg ...
In recent years, robotic training has been utilized for recovery of motor control in patients with motor deficits. Along with clinical assessment, electrical patterns in the brain have emerged as a marker for studying changes in the brain associated...
Walking animals such as invertebrates can effectively perform self-organized and robust locomotion. They can also quickly adapt their gait to deal with injury or damage. Such a complex achievement is mainly performed via coordination between the legs...
BACKGROUND: Rehabilitation robots integrated with brain-machine interaction (BMI) can facilitate stroke patients' recovery by closing the loop between motor intention and actual movement. The main challenge is to identify the patient's motor intentio...

BACKGROUND: Human gut microbiota can provide lifelong health information and even influence mood and behaviour. We currently lack the tools to obtain a microbial sample, directly from the small intestine, without contamination.
We sought to identify the factors associated with deterioration of renal functions after robot-assisted radical cystectomy, and to develop a nomogram to detect the probability of progression to chronic kidney disease (CKD). A retrospective review o...
Piano is a complex instrument, which humans learn to play after many years of practice. This paper investigates the complex dynamics of the embodied interactions between a human and piano, in order to gain insights into the nature of humans' physical...
INTRODUCTION: The basic paradigm of rehabilitation is based on the brain plasticity, and for promoting it, test-retest reliability (TRR) of brain activation in which certain area of the brain is repeatedly activated is required. In this study, we inv...
