Acute and sub-acute stroke lesion segmentation from multimodal MRI.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Acute stroke lesion segmentation tasks are of great clinical interest as they can help doctors make better informed time-critical treatment decisions. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is time demanding but can provide images...

Reaching exercise for chronic paretic upper extremity after stroke using a novel rehabilitation robot with arm-weight support and concomitant electrical stimulation and vibration: before-and-after feasibility trial.

Biomedical engineering online
BACKGROUND: Our group developed a rehabilitation robot to assist with repetitive, active reaching movement of a paretic upper extremity. The robot is equipped with a servo motor-controlled arm-weight support and works in conjunction with neuromuscula...

Olle Höök Lectureship 2019: The changing world of stroke rehabilitation.

Journal of rehabilitation medicine
The paper presents a summary of the Olle Höök lecture, which was presented at the Baltic North-Sea Forum in Oslo, Sweden, in October 2019. The paper aims to provide a worldwide picture of stroke, developments in this field, and the evolution of strok...

Quantitative Assessment of Motor Function for Patients with a Stroke by an End-Effector Upper Limb Rehabilitation Robot.

BioMed research international
With the popularization of rehabilitation robots, it is necessary to develop quantitative motor function assessment methods for patients with a stroke. To make the assessment equipment easier to use in clinics and combine the assessment methods with ...

Opening the black box of artificial intelligence for clinical decision support: A study predicting stroke outcome.

PloS one
State-of-the-art machine learning (ML) artificial intelligence methods are increasingly leveraged in clinical predictive modeling to provide clinical decision support systems to physicians. Modern ML approaches such as artificial neural networks (ANN...

Augmented Performance Feedback during Robotic Gait Therapy Results in Moderate Intensity Cardiovascular Exercise in Subacute Stroke.

Journal of stroke and cerebrovascular diseases : the official journal of National Stroke Association
BACKGROUND: Low cardiovascular fitness is common poststroke. Conventional subacute stroke rehabilitation does not meet Australian National Stroke Guidelines for cardiovascular exercise, particularly in mobility-dependent patients. Walking robotics ca...

A Novel Soft Robotic Supernumerary Hand for Severely Affected Stroke Patients.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Upper limb functions are severely affected in 23% of the chronic stroke patients, compromising their life quality. To re-enable hand use, providing a degree of functionality and motivating against learned non-use, we propose a robotic supernumerary l...

Effects of robotic gait training after stroke: A meta-analysis.

Annals of physical and rehabilitation medicine
BACKGROUND: Robotic devices are often used in rehabilitation and might be efficient to improve walking capacity after stroke.

Machine Learning Methods Predict Individual Upper-Limb Motor Impairment Following Therapy in Chronic Stroke.

Neurorehabilitation and neural repair
. Accurate prediction of clinical impairment in upper-extremity motor function following therapy in chronic stroke patients is a difficult task for clinicians but is key in prescribing appropriate therapeutic strategies. Machine learning is a highly ...

Value of a Machine Learning Approach for Predicting Clinical Outcomes in Young Patients With Hypertension.

Hypertension (Dallas, Tex. : 1979)
Risk stratification of young patients with hypertension remains challenging. Generally, machine learning (ML) is considered a promising alternative to traditional methods for clinical predictions because it is capable of processing large amounts of c...
