Background Introduction In the human visual system, the understanding and navigation of natural scenes are exceptionally outstanding in terms of both complexity and efficiency. This process requires the transformation of incoming sensory information into visual features ranging from low-level to high-level, such as edges, object parts, and objects ...

Automated Clinical Assessment of Abnormal Walking Movements in ABI Patients Through Image Extraction and Classification Systems Academic Background Walking disability is a common physical impairment following Acquired Brain Injury (ABI). ABI typically includes stroke and traumatic brain injury, with a global incidence of approximately 1.5 million c...

A Study Report on the Impact of Task Complexity on Digital Health Metrics Evaluation of Upper Limb Function Research Background In patients with neurological diseases such as multiple sclerosis (PWMS), the prevalent upper limb dysfunction significantly affects the completion of daily living activities, increasing dependence on caregivers. To enhanc...

The Impact of Exoskeleton Rehabilitation Robot Training on Balance and Lower Limb Function in Subacute Stroke Patients: A Preliminary, Randomized Controlled Trial Research Background and Purpose Stroke is a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. With the rapid development of stroke treatment technology, the mortality rate of stroke has si...

Robot-Assisted Assessment of Chronic Stroke Adults’ Ankle Proprioception Deficits and Related Brain Injury Academic Background Stroke is a common neurological disorder, often resulting in hemiplegia, which affects the patient’s balance and gait control. Proprioception refers to the self-perception of body posture and movement, provided by mechanore...

Background Introduction Stroke is one of the leading causes of death and disability worldwide, with the total number of stroke patients increasing globally due to population aging and urbanization. Although advances in treatment have reduced mortality rates, the number of survivors requiring rehabilitation has increased significantly. This is parti...

Introduction Fall events are common across various clinical populations, with usual risk assessments including visual observation of individual gait. However, gait observation assessments are typically confined to laboratory settings, involving standardized walking protocol tests to identify potential defects that might increase fall risk. Subtle d...

Research Report Background Introduction With an aging population and the increase in neurological and muscular diseases such as stroke, the risk of tripping and falling due to gait disorders has become a serious problem. Research shows that ankle dorsiflexion is crucial for ensuring foot clearance during the swing phase of gait. However, there is l...

Time Synchronization of Motor-Related Cortical Potentials and Parieto-Frontocentral Connectivity in Bilateral Tasks of Stroke Patients Background In stroke rehabilitation research, functional connectivity (FC), motor-related cortical potentials (MRCP), and gait activities are common metrics related to rehabilitation outcomes. Although these have be...

Research Background Myasthenia Gravis (MG) is a chronic antibody-mediated autoimmune disease that primarily affects synaptic transmission at the neuromuscular junction. Approximately 85% of MG patients are antibody-mediated targeting acetylcholine receptors (AChR). The clinical features of this disease include muscle weakness, especially fatigue-in...
