1321 Hand-arm vibration and the risk of neurological diseases – a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]

Vibration and Noise, 2018
Introduction The current risk prediction modelling (ISO-5349) for ‘Raynaud’s phenomenon’ is based on a few studies published 70 to 40 years ago. There are no corresponding risk prediction models for neurosensory injury or carpal tunnel syndrome, nor any systematic reviews comprising a statistical synthesis (meta-analysis) of the evidence.

DeepFoG: An IMU-Based Detection of Freezing of Gait Episodes in Parkinson’s Disease Patients via Deep Learning

Frontiers in Robotics and AI, 2021
Freezing of Gait (FoG) is a movement disorder that mostly appears in the late stages of Parkinson’s Disease (PD). It causes incapability of walking, despite the PD patient’s intention, resulting in loss of coordination that increases the risk of falls ...
