Accelerometry as a tool for measuring the effects of transcranial magnetic stimulation

Pierre Theopistos Vassiliadis

Objective: We predicted that accelerometry would be a viable alternative to electromyography (EMG) for assessing fundamental Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) measurements (e.g. Resting Motor Threshold (RMT), recruitment curves, latencies). New Metho ...

Comparison of the ALPS and PHILOS plating systems in proximal humeral fracture fixation - a retrospective study

Alexandre Terrier, Frédéric Vauclair, Antoine Dewarrat

BackgroundOpen reduction and plate osteosynthesis are considered as a successful technique for the treatment of proximal humerus fracture (PHF) despite high complication rates. The objective of our study was to review the clinical outcome and complications ...

Clinical implementation of accelerated T-2 mapping: Quantitative magnetic resonance imaging as a biomarker for annular tear and lumbar disc herniation

Tobias Kober, Tom Hilbert

Objectives This study evaluates GRAPPATINI, an accelerated T-2 mapping sequence combining undersampling and model-based reconstruction to facilitate the clinical implementation of T-2 mapping of the lumbar intervertebral disc. Methods Fifty-eight individua ...

Intrinsic fracture behavior of Mg-Y alloys

William Curtin, Eleanor Yi Kei Mak

Pure magnesium (Mg) is an attractive metal for structural applications due to its low density, but also has low ductility and low fracture toughness. Dilute alloying of Mg with rare earth elements in small amounts improves the ductility, but the effects of ...

Detection of movement onset using EMG signals for upper-limb exoskeletons in reaching tasks

Silvestro Micera

BackgroundTo assist people with disabilities, exoskeletons must be provided with human-robot interfaces and smart algorithms capable to identify the user's movement intentions. Surface electromyographic (sEMG) signals could be suitable for this purpose, bu ...

Use-Dependent Plasticity in Human Primary Motor Hand Area: Synergistic Interplay Between Training and Immobilization

Estelle Emeline Raffin

Training and immobilization are powerful drivers of use-dependent plasticity in human primary motor hand area (M1HAND). In young right-handed volunteers, corticomotor representations of the left first dorsal interosseus and abductor digiti minimi muscles w ...

A Closed-Loop EMG-Assisted Shoulder Model

Ehsan Sarshari

The human shoulder is a complex musculoskeletal system. Knowledge about its kinematics and dynamics can help improve associated treatments. However, to date direct measurements of these quantities can be only granted through invasive investigations or expe ...

Rationalizing the In Vivo Degradation of Metal-on-Metal Artificial Hip Joints Using Tribocorrosion Concepts

Stefano Mischler, Shoufan Cao

In this study, the in vivo degradation of metal-on-metal (MoM) artificial hip joints was assessed based on the present state of the art concepts of tribocorrosion. A recently developed tribocorrosion model, based on the combination of mechanical and corros ...

Evaluation of the effects of the Arm Light Exoskeleton on movement execution and muscle activities: a pilot study on healthy subjects

Silvestro Micera, Elvira Pirondini, Martina Coscia

Background: Exoskeletons for lower and upper extremities have been introduced in neurorehabilitation because they can guide the patient's limb following its anatomy, covering many degrees of freedom and most of its natural workspace, and allowing the contr ...

A role for HOX13 proteins in the regulatory switch between TADs at the HoxD locus

Denis Duboule, Anamaria Necsulea, Nicolas Lonfat

During vertebrate limb development, Hoxd genes are regulated following a bimodal strategy involving two topologically associating domains (TADs) located on either side of the gene cluster. These regulatory landscapes alternatively control different subsets ...

Measurement Properties of the Smartphone-Based B-B Score in Current Shoulder Pathologies

Kamiar Aminian, Alain Farron, Cyntia Duc

This study is aimed at the determination of the measurement properties of the shoulder function B-B Score measured with a smartphone. This score measures the symmetry between sides of a power-related metric for two selected movements, with 100% representin ...

Combining proprioception and touch to compute spatial information

Elisa Canzoneri

Localising a tactile stimulus in egocentric space involves integrating information from skin receptors with proprioceptive inputs about body posture. We investigated whether body posture automatically influences tactile spatial judgements, even when it is ...

The effect of arm weight support on upper limb muscle synergies during reaching movements

Silvestro Micera, Martina Coscia

Background: Compensating for the effect of gravity by providing arm-weight support (WS) is a technique often utilized in the rehabilitation of patients with neurological conditions such as stroke to facilitate the performance of arm movements during therap ...

Fracture of high volume fraction ceramic particle reinforced aluminium under multiaxial stress

Andreas Mortensen, Andreas Rossoll

Circumferentially notched cylindrical bars of high volume fraction Al2O3 particle reinforced aluminium are tested in tension to probe the role of tensile stress triaxiality on damage and failure of such materials. The transverse strain is monitored with a ...

Interstitial solute transport in articular cartilage and the role of dynamic compression

Robin Evans

Articular cartilage plays important roles in weight-bearing, lubrication, and load distribution in articulating joints. The tissue is mostly extracellular matrix (>90% by volume) that is synthesized and remodeled by cells (chondrocytes) embedded within. Ad ...
