Functional electrical stimulation (FES) is capable of activating muscles that are under-recruited in neurological diseases, such as stroke. Therefore, FES provides a promising technology for assisting upper-limb motor functions rehabilitation following However, the full benefits may be limited due to lack systematic approach formulate pattern stimulation. Our preliminary work demonstrated it feasible use muscle synergy guide generation patterns.In this paper, we present methodology...
BackgroundXalnesiran, a small interfering RNA molecule that targets conserved region of the hepatitis B virus (HBV) genome and silences multiple HBV transcripts, may have efficacy, with or without an immunomodulator, in patients chronic infection.MethodsWe conducted phase 2, multicenter, randomized, controlled, adaptive, open-label platform trial included evaluation 48 weeks treatment xalnesiran at dose 100 mg (group 1), 200 2), plus 150 ruzotolimod 3), 180 μg pegylated interferon alfa-2a...
Abstract Background Non-invasive brain stimulation techniques have been shown in several studies to improve the motor recovery of affected upper-limbs stroke patients. This study aims investigate whether or not cathodal transcranial direct current (c-tDCS), combined with virtual reality (VR), is superior VR alone reducing impairment and improving upper limb function quality life Methods Forty patients who suffered ischemic between 2 weeks 12 months were recruited for this single-blind...
Transcranial focused ultrasound stimulation (tFUS) regulates neural activity in different brain regions humans and animals.However, the role of modulating promoting neurorehabilitation ischemic is largely unknown.In present study, we explored effect tFUS on neurological rehabilitation underlying mechanism.Adult male ICR mice (n=42) underwent transient middle cerebral artery occlusion.One week after ischemia, low frequency (0.5 MHz) was applied to stimulate hemisphere for 7 consecutive days...
The central nervous system (CNS) produces movements by activating specifically programmed muscle synergies that are also altered with injuries in the brain, such as stroke. In this study, we hypothesize there exists a positive correlation between task-specific synergy and motor functions at joint task levels patients following purpose here is to define evaluate neurophysiological metrics based on for assessing patients. A patient group of ten subjects suffering from stroke control nine...
Rationale: Brain collaterals contribute to improving ischemic stroke outcomes.However, dynamic and timely investigations of collateral blood flow restoration in whole brains living animals have rarely been reported.Methods: Using multiple modalities imaging, including synchrotron radiation angiography, laser speckle micro-CT we dynamically explored circulation throughout the brain rodent middle cerebral artery occlusion model. Results:We demonstrated that compared control animals, 4...
Objectives: Either motor training or repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) could modulate the neural plasticity after stroke. Therefore, synchronizing two interventions may optimize efficiency of recovery. In present study, we aim to investigate effect rTMS along with hand grip on neurobehavioral and functional recovery in one cohort subacute stroke patients. Methods: Thirty-nine patients were enrolled a single-center, single-blinded, randomized clinical trial. We tested...
Background and AimsThe application of antifibrotic drugs to treat patients with chronic liver diseases who are receiving antiviral therapies for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has not been established. Here, we aimed assess the impact Traditional Chinese Medicine Fuzheng Huayu (FZHY) on occurrence HCC in hepatitis B virus-related compensated cirrhosis drug entecavir (ETV).
While neuroplasticity and functional reorganization during motor recovery can be indirectly reflected evaluated by corticomuscular coupling (fCMC), little work has been published regarding the cortical origin of abnormal muscle synergy compensatory mechanism in separation movement stroke patients.
Neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) is a promising assistive technology for stroke rehabilitation. Here we present the design and development of multimuscle system as an emerging therapy people with paretic stroke. A network-based multichannel NMES was integrated based on dual bus architecture communication H-bridge current regulator power booster. The structure body area network embedded multiple stimulators protocol controlled to transmit muscle parameter information individual...
Objective: To investigate the effects of low frequency transcranial magnetic stimulation (LF-rTMS) combined with motor imagery (MI) on upper limb function during stroke rehabilitation. Background: Hemiplegic extremity activity obstacle is a common movement disorder after stroke. Compared single intervention, sequential protocol or combination several techniques has been proven to be better for alleviating disorder. Non-invasive neuromodulation such as repetitive (rTMS) and have verified...
In certain neurological disorders such as stroke, the impairment of upper limb function significantly impacts daily life quality and necessitates enhanced control. This poses a formidable challenge in realm rehabilitation due to its intricate nature. Moreover, plasticity muscle synergy proves advantageous assessing enhancement motor among stroke patients pre post training intervention, owing modular control strategy central nervous system.
