BACKGROUND: Robotic rehabilitation of stroke survivors with upper extremity dysfunction may yield different outcomes depending on the robot type. Considering that excessive dependence on assistive force by robotic actuators may interfere with the pat...
As stroke mortality rates decrease, there has been a surge of effort to study poststroke dementia (PSD) to improve long-term quality of life for stroke survivors. Hippocampal volume may be an important neuroimaging biomarker in poststroke dementia, a...

An understanding of the dose-response during training is important to identify the rehabilitation programs to obtain the improvement in chronic stroke patients. The purpose of this study was to determine whether distance-dose (distance walked across ...
Retinal blood vessels provide information on the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Here, we report the development and validation of deep-learning models for the automated measurement of retinal-vessel calibre in retinal photographs, using divers...

BACKGROUND: Chronic hand and wrist impairment are frequently present following stroke and severely limit independence in everyday life. The wrist orientates and stabilizes the hand before and during grasping, and is therefore of critical importance i...
Background Large vessel occlusion (LVO) stroke is one of the most time-sensitive diagnoses in medicine and requires emergent endovascular therapy to reduce morbidity and mortality. Leveraging recent advances in deep learning may facilitate rapid dete...
