Biomechanical mechanisms underlying exosuit-induced improvements in walking economy after stroke [PDF]

, 2018
Stroke-induced hemiparetic gait is characteristically asymmetric and metabolically expensive. Weakness and impaired control of the paretic ankle contribute to reduced forward propulsion and ground clearance—walking subtasks critical for safe and ...

Sex Representation in US Stroke Clinical Trials: A Decade of Trends and Challenges

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Stroke remains a major cause of disability and mortality in the US, with significant sex‐based disparities, and females remain underrepresented in stroke clinical trials. We aimed to examine sex representation in US‐based stroke clinical trials, identify trial characteristics associated with higher female enrollment (≥ 50%), and ...

Relationship between symmetry index and postural sway parameters in dynamic task and functional balance tests in right and left hemiparesis patients (pilot study)

مجله پژوهش در علوم توانبخشی, 2012
Introduction: Independence in bending and picking up an object from the floor has great importance in activities of daily living. Asymmetrical distribution of weight is effective factor in imbalance and postural instability in people with hemiparesis ...

Noninvasive Focal Gene Delivery into the Cerebellum of Non‐Human Primates using Focused Ultrasound

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Focal and non‐invasive viral vector delivery in non‐human primates remains a major challenge in translational neuroscience. Low‐intensity focused ultrasound was used to transiently open the blood–brain barrier and enable targeted gene delivery to the cerebellum.

Post-stroke Hemiplegic Gait: New Perspective and Insights

Frontiers in Physiology, 2018
Walking dysfunction occurs at a very high prevalence in stroke survivors. Human walking is a phenomenon often taken for granted, but it is mediated by complicated neural control mechanisms. The automatic process includes the brainstem descending pathways

Brain-Computer Interface Coupled to a Robotic Hand Orthosis for Stroke Patients’ Neurorehabilitation: A Crossover Feasibility Study

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2021
Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCI) coupled to robotic assistive devices have shown promise for the rehabilitation of stroke patients. However, little has been reported that compares the clinical and physiological effects of a BCI intervention for upper limb
