In robot-assisted rehabilitation, it is unclear which type of haptic guidance is effective for regaining motor function because of the lack of direct comparisons among multiple types of haptic guidance. The objective of this study was to investigate ...
BACKGROUND: Upper limb dysfunction is one of the most common sequelae of stroke and robotic therapy is considered one of the promising methods for upper limb rehabilitation.
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to investigate the effects of virtual reality (VR)-based robot therapy combined with task-oriented therapy on cerebral cortex activation and upper limb function in patients with stroke.
PURPOSE: Robotic devices for upper-limb neurorehabilitation allow an increase in intensity of practice, often relying on video game-based training strategies with limited capacity to individualise training and integrate functional training. This stud...

BACKGROUND: Children with unilateral cerebral palsy (CP) exhibit motor impairments predominantly on one side of the body, while also having ipsilesional and bilateral impairments. These impairments are known to persist through adulthood, but their ex...
BACKGROUND: Rehabilitation training based on the brain-computer interface of motor imagery (MI-BCI) can help restore the connection between the brain and movement. However, the performance of most popular MI-BCI system is coarse-level, which means th...
