Stroke is a leading cause of long-term disability, frequently associated with persistent motor deficits. Gamma band oscillations, generated by synchronous discharge of parvalbumin-positive interneurons (PV-INs), are critically affected after stroke i...
INTRODUCTION: Stroke is the second leading cause of death and disability creating a huge economic burden annually. Robot-assisted training (RT) is a promising therapy in stroke rehabilitation, but for the elderly, traditional 'reaching objects'" task...
Robot-assisted mirror therapy (MRT) is a cutting-edge rehabilitative treatment that combines mirror therapy and rehabilitation robots and can improve stroke patient participation in rehabilitation training. The aim of this study was to investigate th...
BACKGROUND: Stroke incidence rises with age. A stroke can severely affect walking ability, requiring therapy. Robot-assisted walking therapy (ROB) has been advocated as one form of walking rehabilitation in stroke patients. However, its comparative e...
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to compare the long-term effects of soft robotic gloves (SRGs) and mirror therapy on hand function and motor recovery in post-stroke patients.

OBJECTIVE: Stroke is a leading cause of long-term disability, significantly impacting patients' mobility and quality of life. Robot-assisted gait therapy (RAGT) and high-intensity interval training (HIIT) have individually shown potential in improvin...
Portable wearable robots offer promise for assisting people with upper limb disabilities. However, movement variability between individuals and trade-offs between supportiveness and transparency complicate robot control during real-world tasks. We ad...
Robotic rehabilitation is becoming a standard in post-stroke physical rehabilitation, and these setups, often coupled with virtual exercises, collect a large and finely grained amount of data about patients' motor performance, in terms of kinematics ...
