Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.Abstract Objective Status non‐epilepticus is characterized by recurrent or prolonged psychogenic non‐epileptic seizures (PNES), which are often mistaken for status epilepticus (SE). This study focuses on the misdiagnosis of convulsive SE in patients whose seizures were of psychogenic origin.

FES rehabilitation platform with real-time control and performance feedback. [PDF]
, 2017 Osteoporosis after spinal cord injury is associated with low-trauma fractures, and consequently with increased risk of morbidity and mortality. The loss of bone mass density (BMD) due to paraplegia can be reduced through cyclical electrically-induced ...

Journal of Biophotonics, EarlyView.Near‐infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) offers a novel, non‐invasive method to assess muscle spasticity. By measuring the Tissue Oxygenation Index (TOI) during different levels of muscle contraction, this study explores the feasibility of NIRS as an objective tool for spasticity evaluation.
