Effects of a full-body electrostimulation garment application in a cohort of subjects with cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis, and stroke on upper motor neuron syndrome symptoms
CONCLUSIONS: Multi-site transcutaneous electrical stimulation may increase ambulation related skills in subjects with SMD stemming from CP, MS and stroke. The results indicate effects on static and dynamic balance, fall risk, mobility, upper extremity improvement and an overall increase in health utility and a reduction in spasticity related pain. Effects are immediate as well as sustained. These results may inspire individual trial fittings and inform further controlled trials.PMID:38354212 | DOI:10.1515/bmt-2023-0271 (Source: Biomedizinische Technik/Biomedical Engineering)

Actuators and transmission mechanisms in rehabilitation lower limb exoskeletons: a review
Biomed Tech (Berl). 2024 Jan 31. doi: 10.1515/bmt-2022-0262. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTResearch has shown that rehabilitation lower limb exoskeletons (RLLEs) are effective tools for improving recovery or regaining lower limb function. This device interacts with the limbs of patients. Thus, actuators and power transmission mechanisms are the key factors in determining smooth human‒machine interaction and comfort in physical therapy activities. A multitude of distinct technologies have been proposed. However, we questioned which consideration point in actuator selection and power transmission mechanisms are used for RL...

Computational models of bone fracture healing and applications: a review
Biomed Tech (Berl). 2024 Jan 19. doi: 10.1515/bmt-2023-0088. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTFracture healing is a very complex physiological process involving multiple events at different temporal and spatial scales, such as cell migration and tissue differentiation, in which mechanical stimuli and biochemical factors assume key roles. With the continuous improvement of computer technology in recent years, computer models have provided excellent solutions for studying the complex process of bone healing. These models not only provide profound insights into the mechanisms of fracture healing, but also have important implicat...
