Feasibility of human ethomic biomarkers for the diagnosis and monitoring of hip osteoarthritis.

Journal of biomechanics
Radiographic imaging is typically used to diagnose osteoarthritis (OA). However, patients would typically be sent for imaging after they present to a physician because of joint pain. By this time, the condition is likely irreversible. This study aims...

Encoding mechanical intelligence using ultraprogrammable joints.

Science advances
Animal bodies act as physical controllers, with their finely tuned passive mechanical responses physically "encoding" complex movements and environmental interactions. This capability allows animals to perform challenging tasks with minimal muscular ...

From marker to markerless: Validating DeepLabCut for 2D sagittal plane gait analysis in adults and newly walking toddlers.

Journal of biomechanics
The use of 3D marker-based motion analysis systems is considered the gold standard for tracking limb movements. However, these systems are expensive, limited to laboratory settings, and difficult to apply when studying paediatric populations. Therefo...

Neuro-Modulation Analysis Based on Muscle Synergy Graph Neural Network in Human Locomotion.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
The coordination of muscles in human locomotion is commonly understood as the integration of motor modules known as muscle synergies. Recent research has delved into the adaptation of muscle synergies during the acquisition of new motor skills. Howev...

Enhancing student-centered walking environments on university campuses through street view imagery and machine learning.

PloS one
Campus walking environments significantly influence college students' daily lives and shape their subjective perceptions. However, previous studies have been constrained by limited sample sizes and inefficient, time-consuming methodologies. To addres...

Can we use lower extremity joint moments predicted by the artificial intelligence model during walking in patients with cerebral palsy in the clinical gait analysis?

PloS one
Several studies have highlighted the advantages of employing artificial intelligence (AI) models in gait analysis. However, the credibility and practicality of integrating these models into clinical gait routines remain uncertain. This study critical...

Soft robotic brittle star shows the influence of mass distribution on underwater walking.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Most walking organisms tend to have relatively light limbs and heavy bodies in order to facilitate rapid limb motion. However, the limbs of brittle stars (Class Ophiuroidea) are primarily comprised of dense skeletal elements, with potentially much hi...

The effect of lower limb rehabilitation robot on lower limb -motor function in stroke patients: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Systematic reviews
BACKGROUND: The assessment and enhancement of lower limb motor function in hemiplegic patients is of paramount importance. The emergence of lower limb rehabilitation robots offers a promising avenue for improving motor function in these patients, add...

Augmenting rehabilitation robotics with spinal cord neuromodulation: A proof of concept.

Science robotics
Rehabilitation robotics aims to promote activity-dependent reorganization of the nervous system. However, people with paralysis cannot generate sufficient activity during robot-assisted rehabilitation and, consequently, do not benefit from these ther...

Mechanical Structure Design and Motion Simulation Analysis of a Lower Limb Exoskeleton Rehabilitation Robot Based on Human-Machine Integration.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Population aging is an inevitable trend in contemporary society, and the application of technologies such as human-machine interaction, assistive healthcare, and robotics in daily service sectors continues to increase. The lower limb exoskeleton reha...
