Designing Upper-Body Gesture Interaction with and for People with Spinal Muscular Atrophy in VR [PDF]
Recent research proposed gaze-assisted gestures to enhance interaction within virtual reality (VR), providing opportunities for people with motor impairments to experience VR. Compared to people with other motor impairments, those with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) exhibit enhanced distal limb mobility, providing them with more design space.

Abstract Aims The aim of the study was to investigate whether differences in paracetamol pharmacokinetics (PK) between spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) patients and healthy controls (HC) could be attributed to specific clinical covariates. Methods Nonlinear mixed‐effects modelling (NONMEM 7.4) was used to develop a population PK model, explore covariates ...

Defective axonal transport in motor neuron disease [PDF]
Several recent studies have highlighted the role of axonal transport in the pathogenesis of motor neuron diseases. Mutations in genes that control microtubule regulation and dynamics have been shown to cause motor neuron degeneration in mice and in a ...

Development of a Robotic System for Automatic Wheel Removal and Fitting [PDF]
This paper discusses the image processing and computer vision algorithms for real time detection and tracking of a sample wheel of a vehicle. During the manual tyre changing process, spinal and other muscular injuries are common and even more serious injuries have been recorded when occasionally, tyres fail (burst) during this process.

Recent findings indicate that mitochondria‐associated membranes (MAMs), where the endoplasmic reticulum directly contacts the mitochondria, are a novel microdomain essential for cellular homeostasis, including proteostasis. We summarize the disruption of protein homeostasis and MAM alteration in neurodegenerative diseases, then discuss challenges and ...
