Comparison of Consumer Smartwatch and Research‐Grade Accelerometer‐Derived Step Counts in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

Muscle &Nerve, Volume 74, Issue 3, Page 580-589, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Objective, scalable measures of function are needed in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Research‐grade accelerometers are promising but may be difficult to deploy for prolonged remote monitoring, whereas consumer smartwatches offer a practical alternative. We evaluated the feasibility of long‐term smartwatch monitoring in

A case-series study to explore the efficacy of foot orthoses in treating first metatarsophalangeal joint pain

Journal of Foot and Ankle Research, 2010
Background First metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joint pain is a common foot complaint which is often considered to be a consequence of altered mechanics. Foot orthoses are often prescribed to reduce 1st MTP joint pain with the aim of altering dorsiflexion at ...

Clinical Development of Therapies for Charcot–Marie–Tooth Disease: Recommendations for Trial Design, Endpoints, and Regulatory Pathways

Journal of the Peripheral Nervous System, Volume 31, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Charcot–Marie–Tooth disease (CMT) encompasses a heterogeneous group of inherited peripheral neuropathies. Despite being the most common genetic neurological condition, individual CMT subtypes are rare, presenting unique challenges for therapeutic development.

Foot orthoses improve kinematic measurement in young women with biomechanical abnormality

Universa Medicina, 2015
BACKGROUND Foot pronation causes biomechanical abnormalities in the form of functional leg-length disparity. Foot orthoses are often used in the treatment of abnormal pronation. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of foot orthoses on abnormal

Switching From Intravenous to Subcutaneous Immunoglobulin Maintenance Treatment in Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyradiculoneuropathy

Journal of the Peripheral Nervous System, Volume 31, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Subcutaneous immunoglobulin (SCIg) is an alternative maintenance therapy to intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) in chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP). The CIDP guideline considers switching from IVIg to SCIg at an equivalent dosage reasonable; however, the optimal dosing strategy is unknown. This

Microfluidic Valve‐Integrated Garment for Smooth Sequential Gradient Mechanotherapy

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2026.
We present a soft wearable sleeve that delivers smooth, gap‐free compression using overlapping air‐filled actuators and tiny microfluidic valves. The system reduces bulk, lowers power needs, and uses a smartphone‐sized control box. It can provide sequential gradient compression, gradient pressure holding, and fast deflation, supporting more portable ...
