Management of rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder in patients with Parkinson's disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Among all of the devastating effects that Parkinson’s disease (PD) has on an individual, sleep dysfunction is one that can have a profound effect on the entire family of the patient. The most potentially destructive of these sleep syndromes being that of

Reducing Personalization Time and Energy Cost While Walking Outdoors with a Portable Exosuit

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Rapid Real‐World Optimization! An AF‐based human‐in‐the‐loop optimization strategy rapidly personalizes a portable hip extension exosuit for incline walking. Real‐time Bayesian optimization of assistive force significantly reduces metabolic energy—up to 16.2%—while converging in just 3 min 24 s.

Remote Control of Hand Actuators via Glove Sensors for Medical Care Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This study presents a novel textile‐based sensory glove–actuator system for remote medical care, explored through finite element simulations. By integrating capacitive sensors, pneumatic actuators, and machine learning, the system models real‐time hand movement control.

Integrating Visible‐Light Photocatalysis and Enzymes for the Stereoselective Synthesis of Alcohols and Amines

open access: yesAdvanced Synthesis &Catalysis, EarlyView.
The integration between visible‐light photocatalysis and biocatalysis has the potential to greatly improve modern organic synthesis by combining the production of valuable synthetic intermediates under mild photochemical conditions with the high degree of stereoselectivity reached by enzymes. The review collects the recent efforts in the photoenzymatic

Spatial discrimination in patients with MSA, PSP, DIP, and VP with pain

open access: yesScientific Reports
Pain is common in Parkinson’s disease and frequently observed in other diseases involving parkinsonism. Abnormal scaling function in PD has been reportedly associated with pain, but the role of this function in pain in other parkinsonism-related diseases
