Sign Language as “Mother Tongue Orphan”: A Challenge to Raciolinguistic Multiculturalism in Singapore

open access: yesAmerican Anthropologist, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines the contested status of “sign language” in Singapore by exploring deaf people's experiences of the “Mother Tongues”—the state's designation for the official languages of Mandarin, Malay, and Tamil—with a particular focus on the relationships that deaf Chinese Singaporeans have with Mandarin.

Ergonomics of 3D‐Exoscope Versus the Operating Microscope in Otologic Surgery

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Microscope use in otologic surgery is associated with a high degree of ergonomic risk and musculoskeletal pain. A prospective comparative study was undertaken demonstrating a 3D‐exoscope has improved ergonomics compared to the operating microscope. Ongoing development is required to improve the ergonomics in otologic surgery on a larger scale. ABSTRACT

Differences and Commonalities of Electrical Stimulation Paradigms After Central Paralysis and Amputation

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
Invasive and non‐invasive functional electrical stimulation (FES) is a well‐established method to partially restore function after paralysis and deliver sensory feedback after amputation. This work summarizes the current state‐of‐the‐art of FES for restoring function, supporting rehabilitation therapy, and assistive devices.

The Role of Scalp EEG Recordings During Cortical Visual Prosthesis Testing

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
This article describes the role of recording scalp EEG for projects that are developing cortical visual prosthesis systems. It concludes that EEG is not required during basic threshold and spatial mapping studies, but should be considered when higher levels of stimulation and video‐camera stimulation are employed.

Neurophysiological Effect of Transcutaneous Electrical Spinal Cord Stimulation in Chronic Complete Spinal Cord Injury

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
TESCS‐ABT induced neurophysiological changes in individuals with chronic complete SCI, however these did not consistently translate into functional improvements. These findings highlight the role of residual supraspinal connectivity and inform future research to optimise this neurotechnology for SCI rehabilitation and identify likely responders ...
