The Combined Use of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation and Robotic Therapy for the Upper Limb.

Journal of visualized experiments : JoVE
Neurologic disorders such as stroke and cerebral palsy are leading causes of long-term disability and can lead to severe incapacity and restriction of daily activities due to lower and upper limb impairments. Intensive physical and occupational thera...

Bio-inspired upper limb soft exoskeleton to reduce stroke-induced complications.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Stroke has become the leading cause of disability and the second-leading cause of mortality worldwide. Dyskinesia complications are the major reason of these high death and disability rates. As a tool for rapid motion function recovery in stroke pati...

Designing robot-assisted neurorehabilitation strategies for people with both HIV and stroke.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
There is increasing evidence that HIV is an independent risk factor for stroke, resulting in an emerging population of people living with both HIV and stroke all over the world. However, neurorehabilitation strategies for the HIV-stroke population ar...

Self-Efficacy, Poststroke Depression, and Rehabilitation Outcomes: Is There a Correlation?

Journal of stroke and cerebrovascular diseases : the official journal of National Stroke Association
BACKGROUND: The sudden live changes of stroke survivors may lead to negative psychological and behavioral outcomes, including anxiety and depressive mood, which may compromise the rehabilitation process. Some personality features, such as self-effica...

Predicting Motor and Cognitive Improvement Through Machine Learning Algorithm in Human Subject that Underwent a Rehabilitation Treatment in the Early Stage of Stroke.

Journal of stroke and cerebrovascular diseases : the official journal of National Stroke Association
BACKGROUND: The objective of this study was to investigate, in subject with stroke, the exact role as prognostic factor of common inflammatory biomarkers and other markers in predicting motor and/or cognitive improvement after rehabilitation treatmen...

The effects of error-augmentation versus error-reduction paradigms in robotic therapy to enhance upper extremity performance and recovery post-stroke: a systematic review.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
Despite upper extremity function playing a crucial role in maintaining one's independence in activities of daily living, upper extremity impairments remain one of the most prevalent post-stroke deficits. To enhance the upper extremity motor recovery ...

Effectiveness of robo-assisted lower limb rehabilitation for spastic patients: A systematic review.

Biosensors & bioelectronics
BACKGROUND: Though many rehabilitative treatments are available for treatment of spasticity, thus the effectiveness of different robo-rehabilitative devices needs to be evaluated through a systematic review.
