Modified Functional Reach Test: Upper-Body Kinematics and Muscular Activity in Chronic Stroke Survivors

open access: yesSensors, 2021
Effective control of trunk muscles is fundamental to perform most daily activities. Stroke affects this ability also when sitting, and the Modified Functional Reach Test is a simple clinical method to evaluate sitting balance.

Measuring Habitual Arm Use Post-stroke With a Bilateral Time-Constrained Reaching Task

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2018
Background: Spontaneous use of the more-affected arm is a meaningful indicator of stroke recovery. The Bilateral Arm Reaching Test (BART) was previously developed to quantify arm use by measuring arm choice to targets projected over a horizontal hemi ...

Conditioning vs. Excitation Time for Estimating Impedance Parameters of the Human Arm

open access: yes, 2011
The human arm’s capability to alter its impedance has motivated multiple developments of robotic manipulators and control methods. It provides advantages during manipulation such as robustness against external disturbances and task adaptability ...

Optic ataxia as a model to investigate the role of the posterior parietal cortex in visually guided action: Evidence from studies of patient M.H.

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2013
Optic ataxia is a neuropsychological disorder that affects the ability to interact with objects presented in the visual modality following either unilateral or bilateral lesions of the posterior parietal cortex (PPC).

On Control of Reaching Movements for Musculo-Skeletal Redundant Arm Model

open access: yesApplied Bionics and Biomechanics, 2009
This paper focuses on a dynamic sensory-motor control mechanism of reaching movements for a musculo-skeletal redundant arm model. The formulation of a musculo-skeletal redundant arm system, which takes into account non-linear muscle properties obtained ...

Brain-Machine Interface to Control a Prosthetic Arm with Monkey ECoGs during Periodic Movements

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2014
Brain Machine Interfaces (BMIs) are promising technologies to rehabilitate the function of upper limbs in severely paralyzed patients. We succeeded in developing a BMI prosthetic arm for a monkey implanted with electrocorticogram (ECoG) electrodes and ...

Body size perception in stroke patients with paresis.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Recent studies have suggested that people's intent and ability to act also can influence their perception of their bodies' peripersonal space. Vice versa one could assume that the inability to reach toward and grasp an object might have an impact on the ...

Multiple parietal reach regions in humans: cortical representations for visual and proprioceptive feedback during on-line reaching

open access: yes, 2009
Reaching toward a visual target involves at least two sources of information. One is the visual feedback from the hand as it approaches the target.

Experience With Performing Rheocarna Therapy via the Single‐Needle Method for Treatment of Chronic Limb‐Threatening Ischemia

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction This study investigated the safety and efficacy of single‐needle Rheocarna therapy for chronic limb‐threatening ischemia (CLTI) with wounds. Methods Six patients with CLTI involving ulcers unresponsive to revascularization underwent single‐needle Rheocarna treatment.
