Effects of soft robotic exosuit on ambulation ability in stroke patients: a systematic review.

Biomedical engineering online
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted gait training is incorporated into guidelines for stroke rehabilitation. It is a promising tool combined with conventional therapy for low ambulatory patients. The heavy weight and bulky appearance of a robotic exoskeleton ...

Effects of a soft robotic exosuit on the quality and speed of overground walking depends on walking ability after stroke.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Soft robotic exosuits can provide partial dorsiflexor and plantarflexor support in parallel with paretic muscles to improve poststroke walking capacity. Previous results indicate that baseline walking ability may impact a user's ability t...

Deep learning-based automated lesion segmentation on mouse stroke magnetic resonance images.

Scientific reports
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is widely used for ischemic stroke lesion detection in mice. A challenge is that lesion segmentation often relies on manual tracing by trained experts, which is labor-intensive, time-consuming, and prone to inter- and...

Deep-learning based detection of vessel occlusions on CT-angiography in patients with suspected acute ischemic stroke.

Nature communications
Swift diagnosis and treatment play a decisive role in the clinical outcome of patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS), and computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) systems can accelerate the underlying diagnostic processes. Here, we developed an artificial n...

Impairments of the ipsilesional upper-extremity in the first 6-months post-stroke.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Ipsilesional motor impairments of the arm are common after stroke. Previous studies have suggested that severity of contralesional arm impairment and/or hemisphere of lesion may predict the severity of ipsilesional arm impairments. Histor...

Deep learning-assisted identification and quantification of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage in non-contrast CT scans: Development and external validation of Hybrid 2D/3D UNet.

NeuroImage
Accurate stroke assessment and consequent favorable clinical outcomes rely on the early identification and quantification of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) in non-contrast computed tomography (NCCT) images. However, hemorrhagic lesions can...

The efficacy of hybrid neuroprostheses in the rehabilitation of upper limb impairment after stroke, a narrative and systematic review with a meta-analysis.

Artificial organs
BACKGROUND: Paresis of the upper limb (UL) is the most frequent impairment after a stroke. Hybrid neuroprostheses, i.e., the combination of robots and electrical stimulation, have emerged as an option to treat these impairments.

An Intelligent Rehabilitation Assessment Method for Stroke Patients Based on Lower Limb Exoskeleton Robot.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
The 6-min walk distance (6MWD) and the Fugl-Meyer assessment lower-limb subscale (FMA-LE) of the stroke patients provide the critical evaluation standards for the effect of training and guidance of the training programs. However, gait assessment for ...

An appraisal of the performance of AI tools for chronic stroke lesion segmentation.

Computers in biology and medicine
Automated demarcation of stoke lesions from monospectral magnetic resonance imaging scans is extremely useful for diverse research and clinical applications, including lesion-symptom mapping to explain deficits and predict recovery. There is a signif...
