Functional electrical stimulation (FES): muscle histochemical analysis [PDF]
Spinal Cord, 1993 Functional electrical stimulation (FES) has been used in Brazil since 1989 to obtain functional improvement in paraplegic patients' orthostasis and locomotion. The aim of this paper is to evaluate the histochemical changes observed in the quadriceps femoris muscle following the use of FES.

Adaptable Tile‐Based Pneumatic Origami through Structurally Coupled Localized Actuation
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This article presents tile‐based pneumatic origami structures with rigid tiles and flexible fabric creases, achieving adaptable properties including morphing shape, selective multistability, and tunable stiffness. Independently pressurized folding bladders at each crease enable structurally coupled localized actuation of origami structures.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Biofabrication aims at providing innovative technologies and tools for the fabrication of tissue‐like constructs for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications. By integrating multiple biofabrication technologies, such as 3D (bio) printing with fiber fabrication methods, it would be more realistic to reconstruct native tissue's ...

Swimming Rhythm Generation in The Caudal Hindbrain of The Lamprey [PDF]
, 2018 The spinal cord has been well established as the site of generation of the locomotor rhythm in vertebrates, but studies have suggested that the caudal hindbrain in larval fish and amphibians can also generate locomotor rhythms.

Mapping of electrical muscle stimulation using MRI [PDF]
Journal of Applied Physiology, 1993 The purpose of this study was to map the pattern of muscle contractile activity elicited by electromyostimulation (EMS). A secondary interest was to determine whether EMS evoked a different pattern of contractile activity than voluntary (VOL) efforts.
