A novel underactuated exoskeleton rehabilitation glove for hand flexion and extension training

Biomimetic Intelligence and Robotics
In recent years, the number of stroke patients worldwide has been steadily increasing, with approximately 70% of survivors experiencing upper limb dysfunction, particularly severe impairment of fine motor skills in the hand. This limitation significantly

Exoskeleton‐assisted physiotherapy in school and outpatient contexts for minimally ambulant children with cerebral palsy

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim To assess the clinical feasibility of lower‐limb pediatric exoskeleton‐assisted (Trexo Plus) physiotherapy for minimally ambulatory children at an outpatient center and a primary school. Secondary aims were to assess associated functional and goal‐based outcomes before and after Trexo‐based physiotherapy.

Optimization of photobiomodulation therapy for spinal cord injury: A review

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Photobiomodulation (PBM) therapy in the red and near‐infrared range can significantly modulate the secondary injury response and promote the reparative and regenerative potential of neural tissue after spinal cord injury (SCI). At present, due to the nature of delivery methods, the most effective dose and irradiance at the injury site to optimize ...

Touching Through: The Puzzle of Mediated Contact

Philosophy and Phenomenological Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT It is natural to think that one person touches another when their bodies make direct contact. However, much interpersonal touch is not like this. We often touch people through things like their clothing. But this raises a puzzle: How can you touch someone without directly touching the surface of their body?

Combining neural stimulation and a powered exoskeletal knee to enhance walking after stroke

Journal of Rehabilitation and Assistive Technologies Engineering
Introduction: In this study, we developed a unilateral, hybrid exoskeleton designed to augment post-stroke mobility through integration of noninvasive neural stimulation and a motorized knee orthosis.

Cognitive Symbionts. Expanding the Scope of Cognitive Science With Fungi

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract It has been argued that fungi have cognitive capacities, and even conscious experiences. While these arguments risk ushering in unproductive disputes about how words like “mind,” “cognitive,” “sentient,” and “conscious” should be used, paying close attention to key properties of fungal life can also be uncontroversially productive for ...

Spaceflight and sport science: Physiological monitoring and countermeasures for the astronaut–athlete on Mars exploration missions

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Long‐duration spaceflight impacts essentially every system in the human body, resulting in multisystem deconditioning that might impair the health and performance of crewmembers, particularly on long‐duration exploration missions to Mars. In this review, we apply the sport science model of athlete monitoring, testing and training to astronauts;
