Neuromechanical model-based adaptive control of bi-lateral ankle exoskeletons: biological joint torque and electromyogram reduction across walking conditions [PDF]
To enable the broad adoption of wearable robotic exoskeletons in medical and industrial settings, it is crucial they can adaptively support large repertoires of movements. We propose a new human-machine interface to simultaneously drive bilateral ankle exoskeletons during a range of 'unseen' walking conditions and transitions that were not used for ...

Abstract Objectives The long‐term data on the use of drug‐coated balloons (DCBs) for femoropopliteal atherosclerotic lesions in the real‐world setting are limited, even more so for racially and geographically distinct populations. The present analysis reports the 5‐year safety and effectiveness outcomes of a DCB in the Asian subset of the prospective ...

Recovery From a First-Time Lateral Ankle Sprain and the Predictors of Chronic Ankle Instability
Background: Impairments in motor control may predicate the paradigm of chronic ankle instability (CAI) that can develop in the year after an acute lateral ankle sprain (LAS) injury.

Abstract Background The Clopidogrel and Acetylsalicylic Acid in Bypass Surgery for Peripheral Arterial Disease (CASPAR) trial is the only large, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled trial of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) versus aspirin in patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) after lower extremity revascularization (LER).

Abstract Background Fatigue is a hallmark of breast cancer and is associated with skeletal muscle deconditioning. If cancer‐related fatigue occurs early during chemotherapy (CT), the development of skeletal muscle deconditioning and its effect on exercise capacity remain unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the evolution of skeletal muscle

A New 4-DOF Robot for Rehabilitation of Knee and Ankle-Foot Complex: Simulation and Experiment [PDF]
Stationary robotic trainers are lower limb rehab robots which often incorporate an exoskeleton attached to a stationary base. The issue observed in the stationery trainers for simultaneous knee and ankle-foot complex joints is that they restrict the natural motion of ankle-foot in the rehab trainings due to the insufficient Degrees of Freedom (DOFs) of

Background Ankle sprains are highly prevalent with high risk of recurrence. Consequently, there are a significant number of research reports examining strategies for treating and preventing acute and recurrent sprains (otherwise known as chronic ankle ...

Lateral Ankle Sprain and Chronic Ankle Instability
A select 10-30% of patients with recurrent lateral ankle sprains develop chronic ankle instability (CAI). Patients with chronic ankle instability describe a history of the ankle “giving way” with or without pathological laxity on examination.
