Abstract:

Thirty-eight fingers in 27 patients with Dupuytren’s contracture of the proximal interphalangeal joint (PIPJ) in excess of 70° were treated using a staged technique. The first stage involved applying a mini external fixator across the PIPJ for continuous extension over 6 weeks with intensive hand therapy to maintain mobility of the joint and help correct the deformity. Twice weekly during hand therapy sessions the tension of the elastic band across the mini ex-fix was increased, allowing that full active flexion of the PIPJ against the elastic band could still be achieved. The second stage, 4

Abstract:

Bilateral priming is a rehabilitation adjuvant that can improve upper limb motor recovery poststroke. It uses a table-top device to couple the upper limbs together such that active flexion and extension of one wrist leads to passive movement of the opposite wrist in a mirror symmetric pattern. Bilateral priming increases corticomotor excitability (CME) in the primary motor cortex (M1) of the passively driven wrist; however, the neurophysiological mechanisms underlying this increase remain unclear. This study explored these mechanisms by using transcranial magnetic stimulation over the right M1

Eight patients were instructed to wear their appliances (monoblock/twinblock) full-time and the other eight patients were instructed to wear them at night while sleeping. An additional 10 patients with Class II malocclusion were later included as a pre-t

In the system, we have developed a smart watch that can be used to locate missing or lost children and also track the child movements outside from the home as well as for facilitating women safety. Here the user itself can create his own circle in a mobile app with some radius of distance according to their comfort. When the person is out of the location, which means out of the radius, immediately the message has been sent to the emergency contacts which are already selected before by the user in the mobile app. This process can be controlled by the end user. If the user hurts in any case, it

The paper discusses a unique technique developed initially at Nation Institute of Technology, Surat that is remodeled in real-world applications. The concept consists primarily of a user-friendly software facilitating direct communication with any intelligent or learning system/robot operating under known parameters of motor specifications. Any software base permitting high level PC interface without ASCII interrupt can be used for easy programming. This allows for a learning operation mode where a prevention of time lag is enabled by stored machine data, captured through movements such moveme

Abstract:

Background: Among different types of non-invasive brain stimulation techniques, transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) has been widely used to improve various outcome measures in subjects with neurological conditions. It is a neuro- modulatory technique that delivers low intensity, direct current to cortical areas facilitating or inhibiting spontaneous neuronal activity. Several studies have highlighted the therapeutic potential of tDCS in patients with neurological diseases, including dementia, epilepsy, post-stroke dysfunctions, movement disorders, and other pathological conditions.

Recently, Al1-x Sc x N (ASN) films were reported to exhibit ferroelectricity with a high remnant polarization of over 100 µC/cm2 which is attractive for future non-volatile memory [2]. The feasibility of FeRAM application has been confirmed based on material and electrical properties [3]. One of the issues of ASN films is the lack of reliability and endurance properties, as the number of switching cycles of 104 to 105 is the typical endurance of the ASN films before breakdown [4].

These include traditional cut-point-based (i.e. light, moderate, and vigorous PA) and cut-point-free metrics (i.e. intensity gradient [IG] and average acceleration [AvAcc]). IG reflects the intensity distribution of PA across the day (Rowlands et al., 2018; Fairclough et al., 2019). AvAcc is a proxy for the daily volume of PA ( Rowlands et al., 2018; Fairclough et al., 2019). Cut-point-based metrics are commonly expressed in minutes p

This fact makes neuromorphic devices important emerging solutions to the limitations imposed by the current computing architecture. To mimic synaptic functions in the brain, it is critical to replicate ionic movements in the nervous system. It is therefore important to note that ions move easily in liquids. In this study, we demonstrate a liquid-based neuromorphic device that is capable of mimicking the movement of ions in the nervous system by controlling Na+ movement in an aqueous s

Participants had to discriminate simulated textures with their right index while they were distracted by three disturbing, more or less textured sounds.
