Promoting post-stroke recovery through focal or whole body vibration: criticisms and prospects from a narrative review [PDF]

, 2019
Objective: Several focal muscle vibration (fMV) and whole body vibration (WBV) protocols have been designed to promote brain reorganization processes in patients with stroke. However, whether fMV and WBV should be considered helpful tools to promote post-

Considerations for Initiation and Maintenance of Foslevodopa/Foscarbidopa for Advanced Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background As Parkinson's disease (PD) progresses, motor fluctuations become increasingly difficult to manage with oral medications. Foslevodopa/foscarbidopa (LDp/CDp), delivered as a continuous 24‐h/day subcutaneous infusion, offers continuous levodopa delivery and stable plasma levodopa levels that reduce motor fluctuations. LDp/CDp has been

Vibration as an exercise modality: how it may work, and what its potential might be [PDF]

, 2010
Whilst exposure to vibration is traditionally regarded as perilous, recent research has focussed on potential benefits. Here, the physical principles of forced oscillations are discussed in relation to vibration as an exercise modality.

Adverse events and safety issues associated with physical activity and exercise for adults with osteoporosis and osteopenia: A systematic review of observational studies and an updated review of interventional studies [PDF]

, 2018
Objectives: We conducted a systematic review to identify adverse effects of physical activity and/or exercise for adults with osteoporosis/osteopenia. We synthesised evidence from observational studies, and updated three previously published systematic ...

Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy: Molecular Staging, Risk Factors, Therapeutics, and Emerging Trends

Med Research, EarlyView.
The heterogeneous landscape of DPN can be unified through a tripartite pathogenic model encompassing progressive stages of metabolic dysregulation, chronic inflammation, and overt neuronal damage. Within this framework, six clinical subtypes were identified, namely, hyperglycemia‐driven, dyslipidemia‐driven, inflammation‐driven, dysvascularity‐driven ...

The Application of Telemedicine in Surgery

Med Research, EarlyView.
This figure provides an overview of the content presented in this article. Telemedicine is integrated throughout the entire surgical workflow, with distinct applications across the preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative phases. These applications are enabled by a suite of supporting technologies, while the associated implementation challenges ...

Biomolecular Interaction Prediction in the Pre‐ and Post‐AlphaFold Era: The 8th CAPRI Evaluation

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We report on the 8th CAPRI Evaluation period, capturing the assessment of CAPRI Rounds 47 to 55 (excluding the CASP and COVID‐related Rounds), which have witnessed the transition to AI‐driven prediction tools such as AlphaFold and related alternatives. The prediction Rounds in this evaluation are characterized by a high level of difficulty due

Biomimetic Multifinger Tactile Sensing and Contact‐Regulated Palpation for Autonomous Breast Tumor Localization

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Early detection of breast abnormalities remains challenging: manual palpation is subjective and operator‐dependent, while imaging modalities may miss small or subtle stiffness anomalies. This paper presents a biomimetic multifinger robotic palpation approach intended to support early breast‐cancer screening and follow‐up assessment as a proof ...
