Voluntary phantom hand and finger movements in transhumeral amputees could be used to naturally control polydigital prostheses [PDF]

open access: yes2017 International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics (ICORR), Jul 2017, London, France. pp.1239-1245, 2019
An arm amputation is extremely invalidating since many of our daily tasks require bi-manual and precise control of hand movements. Perfect hand prostheses should therefore offer a natural, intuitive and cognitively simple control over their numerous biomimetic active degrees of freedom. While efficient polydigital prostheses are commercially available,

Universal Proteomic Signature After Exercise‐Induced Muscle Injury in Muscular Dystrophies

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Several neuromuscular disorders (NMDs) are characterized by progressive muscle damage and are marked by the elevation of circulating muscle proteins from activity‐related injury. Despite a diverse array of genetic drivers, many NMDs share similar patterns of exercise intolerance and higher concentrations of muscle injury proteins ...

Adaptive Generation of Phantom Limbs Using Visible Hierarchical Autoencoders [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
This paper proposed a hierarchical visible autoencoder in the adaptive phantom limbs generation according to the kinetic behavior of functional body-parts, which are measured by heterogeneous kinetic sensors. The proposed visible hierarchical autoencoder consists of interpretable and multi-correlated autoencoder pipelines, which is directly derived ...

Phantom limb pain: A literature review

open access: yesChinese Journal of Traumatology, 2018
Since the phantom limb sensation was first described by the French military surgeon Ambroise Pare in the 16th century, the number of studies surrounding phantom limb pain has increased every year.

Induced sensorimotor brain plasticity controls pain in phantom limb patients

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Pain in a phantom limb after limb deafferentation may be due to maladaptive sensorimotor representation. Here the authors find that sensorimotor plasticity induced by BMI training with the phantom hand, contrary to expectation, increased pain while ...

Stimulation of the Semicircular Canals or the Utricles by Clinical Tests Can Modify the Intensity of Phantom Limb Pain

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2019
Background: After amputation, phantom limb pain may be produced by the multisensory processes underling the experience of an intact body. Clinical evidence has shown that cold caloric vestibular stimulation may modify the perception of phantom limb pain.

Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy Is Associated With Higher R2 Relaxation Rate: An MRI and Pathology Study

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) involves β‐amyloid deposition in the walls of cortical and leptomeningeal small vessels. Transverse relaxation rate (R2) is a major source of contrast in MRI. This study tested the hypothesis that CAA is associated with R2, extracted the spatial pattern of CAA‐related R2 abnormalities, and evaluated ...

3D Ultrasound Shear Wave Elastography for Musculoskeletal Tissue Assessment Under Compressive Load: A Feasibility Study [PDF]

open access: yes
Given its real-time capability to quantify mechanical tissue properties, ultrasound shear wave elastography holds significant promise in clinical musculoskeletal imaging. However, existing shear wave elastography methods fall short in enabling full-limb analysis of 3D anatomical structures under diverse loading conditions, and may introduce measurement

Correspondence of MRI and nTMS With EDSS in Multiple Sclerosis: Longitudinal Follow‐Up Study

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Considering the characteristics of multiple sclerosis (MS) disease and its impact on motor disability, this study aims to assess the functional integrity of the corticospinal tract by examining motor evoked potentials (MEPs), Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) scores, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) lesion counts, and ...
