BCI-Triggered functional electrical stimulation therapy for upper limb

European Journal of Translational Myology, 2016
We present here the integration of brain-computer interfacing (BCI) technology with functional electrical stimulation therapy to restore voluntary function. The system was tested with a single man with chronic (6 years) severe left hemiplegia resulting from a stroke. The BCI, implemented as a simple “brain-switch” activated by power decreases in the 18

Shaping Ti3C2 MXene Nanospheres for Precision Near‐Infrared Photothermal Therapy

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In this study, we report producing spherical MXenes via fs laser fragmentation of Ti3C2 flakes in liquid medium. The nanoparticles demonstrated pronounced light absorption and high photothermal conversion efficiencies of 68% and 63% under heating with NIR‐I and NIR‐II lasers, respectively.

Cardiac‐Derived ECM Microspheres for Enhanced hiPSC‐CMs Maturation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Cardiac extracellular matrix microspheres derived from decellularized porcine heart provide a biomimetic 3D microenvironment for human induced pluripotent stem cell–derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC‐CMs). This platform supports short‐ and long‐term culture, enhances structural organization, and promotes electrophysiological and functional maturation of ...

Meta‐Rod Mechanical Metamaterials With Programmable Reconfiguration

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Existing mechanical metamaterials achieve programmable large deformations in planar square or cubic configurations, restricted by required complex boundary conditions. This research proposes a 1D metamaterial, Meta‐rod, with linear, bending, twisting, area, and volume deformation modes.

Recent Trends in Electrical Stimulation Therapy.

Journal of exercise physiology, 1994
1991年から1993年までの3年間における国内の理学療法士の論文，学会発表と，同時期のPhysical Therapy誌における論文の比較から，電気刺激療法に関する最近の傾向と問題点を探った。国内の学会では，筋力増強のための電気刺激療法，Physical Therapy誌では，創傷・潰瘍治癒，浮腫抑制のための電気刺激療法に関するものが多くみられた。また，Physlcal Therapy誌では動物を対象とした基礎的研究に関する論文がみられるのも特徴的であった。これらのことから，従来より指摘されている，より基礎的な研究による作用メカニズムの解明が必要なことが改めて示唆された。
