The association between isometric strength and cognitive function in adults with cerebral palsy
Frontiers in Medicine, 2023 BackgroundThe literature supports quantifying the maximum force/tension generated by one’s forearm muscles such as the hand grip strength (HGS) to screen for physical and cognitive frailty in older adults.

Decrypting cancer's spatial code: from single cells to tissue niches
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Spatial transcriptomics maps gene activity across tissues, offering powerful insights into how cancer cells are organised, switch states and interact with their surroundings. This review outlines emerging computational, artificial intelligence (AI) and geospatial approaches to define cell states, uncover tumour niches and integrate spatial data with ...

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Here, we introduced an intermittent electrical stimulation protocol mimicking the episodic nature of real‐life exercise in vitro by alternating low‐ and high‐frequency stimulation. In comparison with widely used continuous stimulation, it enhanced the rate of glucose and fatty acid oxidation, but not the myokine release.

Explainable Machine Learning in Human Gait Analysis: A Study on Children With Cerebral Palsy
IEEE Access, 2023 This work investigates the effectiveness of various machine learning (ML) methods in classifying human gait patterns associated with cerebral palsy (CP) and examines the clinical relevance of the learned features using explainability approaches.
