Immediate effects of hybrid assistive limb gait training on lower limb function in a chronic myelopathy patient with postoperative late neurological deterioration.

BMC research notes
OBJECTIVE: The Hybrid Assistive Limb (HAL) has recently been used to treat movement disorders. Although studies have shown its effectiveness for chronic myelopathy, the immediate effects of HAL gait training on lower limb function have not been clari...

Deep Learning for Adjacent Segment Disease at Preoperative MRI for Cervical Radiculopathy.

Radiology
Background Patients who undergo surgery for cervical radiculopathy are at risk for developing adjacent segment disease (ASD). Identifying patients who will develop ASD remains challenging for clinicians. Purpose To develop and validate a deep learnin...

Prognosis of cervical myelopathy based on diffusion tensor imaging with artificial intelligence methods.

NMR in biomedicine
Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) has been proposed for the prognosis of cervical myelopathy (CM), but the manual analysis of DTI features is complicated and time consuming. This study evaluated the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) methods in t...

Using a machine learning approach to predict outcome after surgery for degenerative cervical myelopathy.

PloS one
Degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM) is a spinal cord condition that results in progressive non-traumatic compression of the cervical spinal cord. Spine surgeons must consider a large quantity of information relating to disease presentation, imagin...

Machine Learning for the Prediction of Cervical Spondylotic Myelopathy: A Post Hoc Pilot Study of 28 Participants.

World neurosurgery
BACKGROUND: Cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) severity and presence of symptoms are often difficult to predict based simply on clinical imaging alone. Similarly, improved machine learning techniques provide new tools with immense clinical potenti...

Design and Computational Modeling of a Modular, Compliant Robotic Assembly for Human Lumbar Unit and Spinal Cord Assistance.

Scientific reports
Wearable soft robotic systems are enabling safer human-robot interaction and are proving to be instrumental for biomedical rehabilitation. In this manuscript, we propose a novel, modular, wearable robotic device for human (lumbar) spine assistance th...

Use of multivariate linear regression and support vector regression to predict functional outcome after surgery for cervical spondylotic myelopathy.

Journal of clinical neuroscience : official journal of the Neurosurgical Society of Australasia
This study introduces the use of multivariate linear regression (MLR) and support vector regression (SVR) models to predict postoperative outcomes in a cohort of patients who underwent surgery for cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM). Currently, pre...

Prediction of Worse Functional Status After Surgery for Degenerative Cervical Myelopathy: A Machine Learning Approach.

Neurosurgery
BACKGROUND: Surgical decompression for degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM) is one of the mainstays of treatment, with generally positive outcomes. However, some patients who undergo surgery for DCM continue to show functional decline.
