Exoskeleton-assisted Anthropomorphic Movement Training (EAMT) for Post-stroke Upper Limb Rehabilitation: A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial
Stroke is the leading cause of mortality and disability worldwide, and it places a substantial burden on healthcare services and the socioeconomic system.1 More than two-thirds of individuals with stroke have upper extremity motor impairment and functional deficits at hospital admission,2, 3 manifesting as muscle weakness, loss of coordination and abnormal synergies.4 Moreover, upper limb dysfunction leads to long-term limitations in activities of daily living (ADL) and social participation.5 Extensive studies have reported that participants can benefit from high-intensity, task-specific training programs based on motor-le...

Randomized Controlled Trial of Surface Peroneal Nerve Stimulation for Motor Relearning in Lower Limb Hemiparesis
Abstract: Objective: To compare the motor relearning effect of a surface peroneal nerve stimulator (PNS) versus usual care on lower limb motor impairment, activity limitation, and quality of life among chronic stroke survivors.Design: Single-blinded randomized controlled trial.Setting: Teaching hospital of academic medical center.Participants: Chronic stroke survivors (N=110;>12wk poststroke) with unilateral hemiparesis and dorsiflexion strength of ≤4/5 on the Medical Research Council scale.Interventions: Subjects were stratified by motor impairment level and then randomly assigned to ambulation training with either a su...
