Simulated muscle activity in locomotion: implications of co-occurrence between effort minimisation and gait modularity for robot-assisted rehabilitation therapy.

Computer methods in biomechanics and biomedical engineering
Evolution of gait rehabilitation robotic devices for stroke survivors has aimed at providing transparency to user's efforts and implementing 'assist-as-needed' paradigm. Alteration of muscle activity and synergies recruitment has been noticed in tria...

Systematic review of novel technology-based interventions for ischemic stroke.

Neurological sciences : official journal of the Italian Neurological Society and of the Italian Society of Clinical Neurophysiology
PURPOSE: To identify novel technologies pertinent to the prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of ischemic stroke, and recommend the technologies that show the most promise in advancing ischemic stroke care.

FOPR test: a virtual reality-based technique to assess field of perception and field of regard in hemispatial neglect.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: We previously proposed a novel virtual reality-based method to assess human field of perception (FOP) and field of regard (FOR), termed the FOPR test. This study assessed the diagnostic validity of the FOPR test for hemispatial neglect (H...

Robot-assisted rehabilitation of hand function after stroke: Development of prediction models for reference to therapy.

Journal of electromyography and kinesiology : official journal of the International Society of Electrophysiological Kinesiology
BACKGROUND: Recovery of hand function after stroke represents the hardest target for clinicians. Robot-assisted therapy has been proved to be effective for hand recovery. Nevertheless, studies aimed to refer patients to the best therapy are missing.

Deep Neural Networks Can Predict New-Onset Atrial Fibrillation From the 12-Lead ECG and Help Identify Those at Risk of Atrial Fibrillation-Related Stroke.

Circulation
BACKGROUND: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with substantial morbidity, especially when it goes undetected. If new-onset AF could be predicted, targeted screening could be used to find it early. We hypothesized that a deep neural network could...

Association Between Coffee Intake and Incident Heart Failure Risk: A Machine Learning Analysis of the FHS, the ARIC Study, and the CHS.

Circulation. Heart failure
BACKGROUND: Coronary heart disease, heart failure (HF), and stroke are complex diseases with multiple phenotypes. While many risk factors for these diseases are well known, investigation of as-yet unidentified risk factors may improve risk assessment...

Effect of assist-as-needed robotic gait training on the gait pattern post stroke: a randomized controlled trial.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Regaining gait capacity is an important rehabilitation goal post stroke. Compared to clinically available robotic gait trainers, robots with an assist-as-needed approach and multiple degrees of freedom (AAN) are expected to support motor ...

A Review of Robotic Interventional Neuroradiology.

AJNR. American journal of neuroradiology
Robotic interventional neuroradiology is an emerging field with the potential to enhance patient safety, reduce occupational hazards, and expand systems of care. Endovascular robots allow the operator to precisely control guidewires and catheters fro...

Decision Tree Algorithm Identifies Stroke Patients Likely Discharge Home After Rehabilitation Using Functional and Environmental Predictors.

Journal of stroke and cerebrovascular diseases : the official journal of National Stroke Association
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The importance of environmental factors for stroke patients to achieve home discharge was not scientifically proven. There are limited studies on the application of the decision tree algorithm with various functional and envir...
