OBJECTIVE: This study investigated the effectiveness of wearable robot-assisted gait training compared to treadmill gait training for improving balance and walking ability in stroke patients.
BACKGROUND: Acute vestibular syndrome usually represents either vestibular neuritis (VN), an innocuous viral illness, or posterior circulation stroke (PCS), a potentially life-threatening event. The video head impulse test (VHIT) is a quantitative me...
INTRODUCTION: Combining repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) with robotic training could result in more significant improvements in motor function than either treatment alone. The efficacy of this combination may depend on the sequenci...

BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) is an effective method for treating gait disorders in individuals with stroke. However, no previous studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of RAGT in individuals with acute stroke. This study aimed...
Predicting major bleeding in nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (AF) patients on direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) is crucial for personalized care. Alternatives like left atrial appendage closure devices lower stroke risk with fewer nonprocedural blee...
Stroke is a significant health concern in China. Differences in stroke risk between rural and urban areas have been highlighted in prior research. However, there is a scarcity of studies on urban-rural differences in predicting stroke. This study aim...
Upper-limb paresis is one of the main complications after stroke. It is commonly associated with impaired wrist-extension function. Upper-limb paresis can place a tremendous burden on stroke survivors and their families. A novel soft-actuator device,...

BACKGROUND: The 30-day hospital readmission rate is a key indicator of healthcare quality and system efficiency. This study aimed to develop machine-learning (ML) models to predict unplanned 30-day readmissions in older patients with ischemic stroke ...
Stroke affects approximately 12 million individuals annually, necessitating swift diagnosis to avert fatal outcomes. Current hospital imaging protocols often delay treatment, underscoring the need for portable diagnostic solutions. We have investigat...
BACKGROUND: The stroke risk in patients with subclinical atrial fibrillation (AF) is underestimated. By identifying patients at high risk of embolic stroke, health-care professionals can make more informed decisions regarding anticoagulation treatmen...
