RESTORATION OF HINDLIMB MOVEMENTS AFTER COMPLETE SPINAL CORD INJURY USING BRAIN-CONTROLLED FUNCTIONAL ELECTRICAL STIMULATION

Restoration of Hindlimb Movements after Complete Spinal Cord Injury Using Brain-Controlled Functional Electrical Stimulation

Single neuron and local field potential Computer Fan Power Adaptor signals recorded in the primary motor cortex have been repeatedly demonstrated as viable control signals for multi-degree-of-freedom actuators.Although the primary source of these signals has been fore/upper limb motor regions, recent evidence suggests that neural adaptation underly

Can technology optimise the pre-operative pathway for elective hip and knee replacement surgery: a qualitative study

Abstract Background LIPSTICK ICED IRIS An ageing population has resulted in a rise in the number of hip and knee replacement surgeries in the UK.The pre-operative pathway is plagued with issues causing long delays and cancellations.Virtual healthcare technologies have a growing evidence base to help solve these issues.One problem of implementing th

Thiamine-responsive megaloblastic anemia syndrome: A case report

Thiamine-responsive megaloblastic anemia (TRMA) syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by a cardinal triad consisting of megaloblastic anemia, sensorineural deafness, and diabetes mellitus.TRMA is caused by mutations in the gene SLC19A2 encoding a high-affinity thiamine transporter, which disturbs the active thiamine uptake i
