BACKGROUND: Neural activation induced by upper extremity robot-assisted training (UE-RAT) helps characterize adaptive changes in the brains of poststroke patients, revealing differences in recovery potential among patients. However, it remains unclea...
BackgroundProprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) alone has limited effectiveness in restoring gait, while robotic-assisted gait training (RAGT) improves motor relearning through repetitive, task-specific movements. Combining PNF with robotic...
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a complex condition caused by various underlying pathophysiological disorders and is the most common heart arrhythmia worldwide, affecting 2 % of the European population. This prevalence increases with age, imposing signif...

Stroke, an abrupt cerebrovascular ailment resulting in brain tissue damage, has prompted the adoption of motor imagery (MI)-based brain-computer interface (BCI) systems in stroke rehabilitation. However, analyzing electroencephalogram (EEG) signals f...
The utilization of motor imagery-based brain-computer interfaces (MI-BCI) has been shown to assist stroke patients activate motor regions in the brain. In particular, the brain regions activated by unilateral upper limb multi-task are more extensive,...
Finger dexterity, and finger individuation in particular, is crucial for human movement, and disruptions due to brain injury can significantly impact quality of life. Understanding the neurological mechanisms responsible for recovery is vital for eff...
